Do not be an Ally

I see a lot of public schools are adopting a slogan to be an ally:
Becoming an Ally

Working to create a more equitable and inclusive school, community and society starts by looking inward. The “tools” described in this section provide guidelines and a general direction for this lifelong process that can bring about a fundamental change in our perspectives and attitudes.

These tools are intended for all members of the school community. They recognize that everyone has a part to play in creating an equitable and inclusive culture. Everyone has the capacity to be an ally to those who have been marginalized and excluded.

The word ally primarily means for a nation to take sides in a war or potential war. Usually there is a mutual defense treaty.

There is a new definition:

: one that is associated with another as a helper : a person or group that provides assistance and support in an ongoing effort, activity, or struggle

a political ally

She has proven to be a valuable ally in the fight for better working conditions.

—often now used specifically of a person who is not a member of a marginalized or mistreated group but who expresses or gives support to that group

The storyline on "Glee" captures something larger that we are seeing with a new generation of allies (allies are people who support LGBT rights but aren't LGBT themselves).—
David M. Hall

Following the metaphor, this means that LGBT folks are at war with straights, and straights are allies if they side with the LGBT. There is no indication that the LGBTs will help the straights in any way.

No, I do not think that the public schools should take sides in the culture wars in this way. They are trying to get normal kids to side with perverts.

Roger,
There actually are a growing number of homosexuals who are saying 'to hell with this ally crap, it's time for a divorce'. The LGBs (lesbians, gays, bisexuals) are basically saying 'we are ONLY about sexual preference between actual men and women only, not a WiFi password of letters and symbols we can imagine ourselves to be'. This is completely reasonable, as no one can tell another 'No, that isn't your favorite flavor of ice cream', but you can tell someone else 'No, you ARE NOT a Apache attack helicopter.'

The gay community has become a place where if you don't support things such as:
political intolerance and outright hatred of anyone not a democrat,
rampant drug use and drug dealing,
Trans(fill in the blank with anything animate or imaginary),
castrating children in the name of 'gender affirming care' and then hiding it from the parents,
outright bestiality,
MAPs (Minor Attracted Persons... or just good old fashioned pedophiles/child molesters), Then you are not welcome.

As a result, there is a growing number of people who now saying they are no longer identifying as 'gay' at all, but as 'same sex attracted' because of this laundry list of nihilism, insanity, self destruction, and evil, they don't want to have any connection with whatsoever.
