While anti-LGBTQ+ legislation is sweeping the country, and many of us don’t know how to stop it, the next generation is already taking a stand and striking back against the homophobes trying to make this country a worse place for queer people to live.

A group of Seattle middle schoolers decided to take on the far-right “parental rights” group Moms for Liberty by sending them cards asking them to stop “bullying” queer people.

Moms for Liberty, which has been labeled an extremist group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, was initially formed in 2021 to oppose COVID-19 restrictions in Florida schools but has since grown to have 250 chapters across the US and now works to ban books, get conservative elected to school boards, and attempts to end the “woke indoctrination” of children by stopping discussion of race, gender, and sexuality in the classroom.

The group also lobbied in favor of Ron DeSantis’ “Don’t Say Gay” bill, has ties to known hate groups, and spreads “hateful imagery and rhetoric against the LGBTQ community,” according to the SPLC.
