Boy Scouts of America changing its name to be more inclusive

IRVING, Texas (AP) -- The Boy Scouts of America is changing its name for the first time in its 114-year history and will become Scouting America. It's a significant shift as the organization emerges from bankruptcy following a flood of sexual abuse claims and seeks to focus on inclusion.

The organization steeped in tradition has made seismic changes after decades of turmoil, from finally allowing gay youth to welcoming girls throughout its ranks. With an eye on increasing flagging membership numbers, the Irving, Texas-based organization announced the name change Tuesday at its annual meeting in Florida.

I personally know more people who died of the jab than were even seriously ill, let alone died, of the China flu.

The Jared Bernstein vid from post #30383 is so disheartening. How embarrassing for him.

Here is the vid of the douchebag chris interview. I don't know anyone who has died from the jab, but know several close to me that ended up with A-fib for the rest of their life. One ended up having a stroke from the A-fib.

This is nuts. Not nuts that it's new information - just nuts that they've "allowed it" to get out. Does this not bother anyone (other than those that were already bothered by it previously)?

His educational background, from Wikipedia -“Jared Bernstein (born December 26, 1955)[1] is an American musician who is the chair of the United States Council of Economic Advisers.”

“Bernstein graduated with a bachelor's degree in music from the Manhattan School of Musicwhere he studied double bass with Orin O'Brien. Throughout the '80s, Bernstein was a mainstay on the jazz scene in NYC.[[i]citation needed]He also earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College as well as a DSW in social welfare from Columbia University's school of social work.”

He must just have a good “feel” for economics.

Is this question for a certain individual on this forum who's active in this thread who (I'm pretty sure) took the bait on the whole "Ivermectin BAD" bit?

It is truly fascinating to me how a certain specific demographic group went from "We blame the Jews for everything which we perceive to be wrong with the banking industry and Hollywood" to "OMG! MUST SUPPORT ISREAL" just as soon as they started waging unrestricted warfare against brown people.




They have a long way to go, however. The population of Palestine is approximately 5.3 million, and they have only killed around 34,000 of them so far. And, of those, only about 70% have been women and children.

Those are rookie numbers, Israel. You've been at this for seven months, and you've slaughtered fewer civilians in that time than the number of healthy, non-obese, non-smoking American schoolchildren killed by Covid-19 "immunizations" every single day!

^^ Are those rookie numbers, or Hamas propaganda numbers? Asking for a friend.
