LINCOLN Neb. (KLKN) – Northwest Public Schools in Grand Island got rid of its journalism program earlier this summer, in what some have called an act of censorship.

In June, the school newspaper published an issue covering several LGBTQ topics and information about Pride Month.

After the issue was published, staff and students of the journalism program were notified that the program was being eliminated after 54 years.

The school board and superintendent allegedly took issue with editorial content of the last issue. ... Channel 8 reached out to the superintendent but has not received comment.

1. Getting everything in place for a Fascist country. Soon will be significant internet blocking. n/t

2. That's a lot of the reason they opposed net neutrality

Not just to keep the corporate monopolies, but to easily control all information and block the "unwanted"

3. Yeah, sadly exactly true. The US is moving into a very hostile and nasty era. n/t

6. I remember when they were claiming Obama was going to censor the internet and had a kill-switch...

Yep. It was Obama who was going to silence people. It was Obama who was going to bring Chinese-style censorship to the internet here. Good times.

Everytime these thugs point the finger at us, they don't realize they're pointing three of them right back at themselves.

7. Yeah, they reveal their plans and then use Psychological Projection. They can be read

like a book, they are so ignorant.

[IngridsLittleAngel]

8. Exactly what they do

And because they expect us to be as stupid as they are, they think we'll fall for their projection... Then meltdown when we don't.

[Biophilic]

4. They are so f'ing afraid.

5. "Free speech for me, not for thee!"

Once again, the "anti-censorship" and "anti-cancel culture" party strikes again... by censoring and canceling those who aren't like them and say what they don't want to hear.

I hate Nebraska Nazis... Even worse, I hate Hypocritical Nazis.
