    The bill’s sponsor, state Rep. Mack Butler ®, said the bill is necessary to “purify the schools” of “some indoctrination going on,” ABC News reported.

    “[LGBTQ+ discussions and flags are] a component of Marxism where we’re – you know – destroying the family and teaching some of these things. Let it happen somewhere else other than our schools.” Butler said.

    I thought being scared and calling everything you didn’t like “communism” went out of style in the 1980s. Apparently not in Alabama.
