Adolf Hitler Quoted in Newsletter
In a recent newsletter from the Indiana chapter of Moms for Liberty, it was discovered that the group had quoted Adolf Hitler in its inaugural newsletter. In the first version of the letter, it included the quote, “‘He alone, who OWNS the youth, GAINS the future,’ and cited Hitler. While the origin of the quote is not entirely clear, it has been attributed in numerous historical texts to a 1935 rally speech by the Nazi leader.” While the group later came out and condemned the use of the quote Rachel Carroll Rivas, deputy director of research, reporting, and analysis for the Intelligence Project at the Southern Poverty Law Center, stated,”It’s disappointing, but not surprising, that the largest anti-student inclusion movement organization has allegedly used a quote from one of the appalling figureheads in history,.” [6]
M4L Twitter Account Suspended over ‘Hateful Conduct’
Commenting on the California “gender-affirming healthcare” bill, M4L posted a Tweet reading, “Gender dysphoria is a mental health disorder that is being normalized by predators across the USA. California kids are at extreme risk from predatory adults. Now they want to ‘liberate’ children all over the country. Does a double mastectomy on a preteen sound like progress?”[7] M4L co-founder Tina Descovich told Fox News, “We’ve appealed the tweet. We’ve decided that Twitter hates truth because gender dysphoria is a mental health issue that’s plaguing our children across the country right now. It’s something that needs to be discussed and addressed, and certainly it needs to be discussed in the town square of Twitter. But Twitter is against truth.”[8]
