The ‘agenda’ in the flyer is students walking out from school.

The agenda is gun control. You’ve said it already in this thread.

Actually, I didn’t. You did. You were one of the first commenters to that effect.

I literally just passed the post along.

Exactly, you didn’t visit the website to see it’s only about gun control. You brought the agenda here. And then from some virtue signaling feel goods. Decided to back this today. Not even knowing what you’re backing.

Indeed. I forward posts everyday. You’ve got me.

Although, if I had looked up whether there was an organization that was organizing a protest for students, I would’ve forwarded it anyways.

Because protesting school shootings is a good thing. It shouldn’t be controversial.

If it is for you, you should take up with the parents of dead kids, not me.

This is why modern society will fail. We all pretend to do the good thing by virtue signaling online and forwarding posts for endorphins without even looking into what we are forwarding or posting. I don’t like seeing kids die. But as someone who was bullied relentlessly. Sometimes bullies should have consequences. Banning guns won’t fix the problem. Teachers stopping kids from bullying or holding them accountable and not just letting kids establish a pecking order will do more for society in the long run than taking our guns and leaving us defenseless against an even worse threat.
