Girl Scouts deletes tweet congratulating Amy Coney Barrett on Supreme Court appointment
Fox 29 ^ | 10/28/2020 | Austin Williams

The Girl Scouts of America deleted a tweet Wednesday congratulating newly sworn-in Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett after the post triggered apparent backlash on social media.

The post read, “Congratulations Amy Coney Barrett on becoming the 5th woman appointed to the Supreme Court since its inception in 1789.” It featured a photo of other female justices, including the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whose seat Barrett filled, and Sonia Sotomayor.

After deleting the post, Girl Scouts tweeted, “Earlier today, we shared a post highlighting the five women who have been appointed to the Supreme Court. It was quickly viewed as a political and partisan statement which was not our intent and we have removed the post.”

This is what is called indoctrination likes what Germany experienced under the Nazi Regime. I would call the Girl Scouts of America and jam their phone lines. I would email them.

“The communists have infiltrated every aspect of American life. It needs to be destroyed. Period.”

The Nazi’s did the same thing. In Germany there were a lot a clubs and the Nazi’s infiltrated them such that it wasn’t safe to say anything anywhere.

Good grief! Now I’m gonna have to boycott Girl Scouts too!? Ok..... so be it.

The Girl Scouts went over to the dark side a long time ago.

Heck, I knew when I was a Scout many decades ago that the GSA was led by a bunch of dykes. In fact it was the first time I heard the word “lesbian”.

You consistently post remarks and commentary that cause me to wonder whether you are kin or clone.

I think they took it down because ACB’s photo makes the other four look like wretched harridans in comparison.

Gleichschaltung. Complete cultural and thought control.

I went to their website and let them know that as a former Girl Scout I am disappointed that they are teaching future women to be afraid to have views different than the mob. I therefore will no longer support them by spending my money for their cookies. Very saddened

I think it’s time that people across the country let the GSA know they have made their bed and now they can lay in it.

We warned the Boy Scouts. And where are they now?

Who in their right mind would enroll their child in the Scouts? How about 4-H as an alternative. . .but some states went lib on 4-H quite a few years ago making clubs (decades old) change their club’s name to reflect “inclusiveness”. It was unbelievable. Some clubs disbanded.

You are apparently referring to the Nazi practice / policy of Gleichschaltung, but your description greatly understates how it was carried out.

Organizations (private associations, social clubs, and even college fraternities) were not "infiltrated;" rather, they were told:

"Here is Hans, your new president. We know that, before today, Hans never had anything to do with your organization, and still has no real understanding of your organization's purposes, goals, and traditions - but he's your new president. He reports directly to us. And you will do exactly what he says! Oh, and one more thing: You don't have any Jewish members, do you? Because we'd like to have a little talk with them, in private."

Regards,
