'The hips on the drag queen go swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish.'

A PBS station in New York is getting attention for airing a children's program that featured a singing and dancing drag queen.

The skit was part of a "Let's Learn" television series that is produced in partnership with WNET and the New York City Department of Education. Footage surfaced on social media with the drag queen known as "Lil' Miss Hot Mess" promoting their book "The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish."

The skit received a wave of backlash from social media users. It appeared to be a project specific to WNET. and NYC's government. PBS clarified to Fox News that "Let's Learn" was "not funded or distributed by PBS."

During the program, Lil' Miss Hot Mess danced and sang to the tune of "The Wheels on the Bus."

"The hips on the drag queen go swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish," sang Lil Miss Hot Mess.

Disgusting - and targeted at children? Evil.

And yes, this is in fact news - as many people as possible should be aware this sort of thing is going on.

Ah, the New York City Department of Education is involved in this. I remember a few years ago they had a proposed sex ed curriculum that dealt with stuff I, as a grown man, had never heard of, and didn’t need to know.

People need to start waking up and fighting back, or is it too late for that?

This is perversion being marketed to children. They should not be seeing this.

The parents of these children should never be parents. God help those kids. They scarce got a chance of having a life that is not complicated by decades of anti depressants and (fillintheblank) psyche med and therapy....wondering why their life seems so shtty. Suicide. Geezus.

I’d call for defunding PBS but that will never happen because, you know, Big Bird and stuff.

PBS station defends drag queen skit for kids

WOKENESS throughout America & The World ...

Watched a youtube video, by a well-educated white guy musician, about why the term "music theory" is destructive and extremely racist. He (and all his guests) moronically agreed that "old white male European" composers should be canceled and removed from music textbooks. One of his musician guests said that instead of a music textbook having 50 Beethoven music examples, it should only have one. Why? Because, according to him, Beethoven is merely an "above average" composer. They all thoughtlessly agreed that all music theory textbooks should be uniformly diverse by including the same number of musical examples from every culture and nation: For example, a "musical" example of some guy screeching like Yoko Ono is just as valid as a Mozart musical example.

That entire video by that white-guy musician is overflowing with one guest after another (as well as the host himself) ranting and raving that "whiteness" must be eradicated from music theory textbooks. What all those musical fools blindly ignore is the obvious fact that were it not for classical music theory by all those evil "old white male European" composers, there wouldn't be any music school to teach the valuable music theory education that the school has bestowed upon him and that now forms the foundation of his music career (and his money-generating youtube videos). Biting the hand that feeds him. Mindless liberals constantly rant about the so-called "rampant racism" throughout the U.S. Of course, they always scream, "But I'm not a racist - everyone else is!" Woke liberal nut-jobs.

Also recently saw a youtube video of a white female economics "expert" in which she and her equally liberal guests rant and rave against all those greedy U.S. capitalists. But once again, they imply: "I'm not greedy - everyone else is!" Woke liberal nut-jobs.

The problem is that all liberals base everything they say and do on their extreme out-of-control emotions ("triggered!"). Common sense and reason is a totally alien concept to them. In 2020, the nutty liberals knew they couldn't convince American voters to vote for "Sleepy Joe" Biden (who got hammered in his two prior Presidential runs & who was yet again an embarrassing also-ran early on in the most-recent Democrat primaries). So they used Covid & the violent BLM/Antifa nationwide riots against the U.S. (and thus against Trump). And a very large number of RINO politicians helped them, including Mitt Romney & the Bush family. Also, virtually all American major-company CEOs were hugely anti-Trump & pro-Biden.

This kind of depraved evil is a harbinger of the end of a civilization. If it doesn’t get turned around soon.

Smart leftists realize that all this “wokeness” is really about destroying western history and culture so that something new can take its place. They know it doesn’t make much sense, but it gets the job done, so they use it. The dumb leftist masses (the useful idiots) actually believe the BS they spew and react emotionally to the slightest offense.

There are many things that are inspiring to young children and it doesn’t have to be this filth. This filth is child abuse, plain and simple!

Men in woman’s clothing has always been a feature in comedy shows. Many of the Great Comedy Actors often did this to get laughs. Red Skelton, Buster Keaton, James Cagey, Cary Grant, Milton Berle.

It was for laughs! Now they want us to take them serious? NO WAY! They were a clown act and get a clown’s response. Laughs and derision.
