Welcome to every corporate business in America in 2022.

When the tables turn, and they will at some point, there will be a reckoning and hell to pay. First way to stop this is to stop hiring woke consultants and caving to this woke peer pressure. It really isn't that hard to stand up to the shitheads.

Which is exactly why no one wants anything to do with them anymore

they just figure people will notice child rape less if they're more gay.

That would guarantee my son has nothing to do with scouts. I think an organically formed father son group with your local school may be the way to go these days. frick this woke nonsense

Scouts used to be awesome. I was in during the 80s. Made Eagle. Had some great times. Now it's woke.

The Boy Scouts of America have implemented a specific "diversity and inclusion merit badge" in support of the Black Lives Matter movement that will be required to achieve the rank of Eagle Scout going forward.


Man, they are kind of late getting into the BLM stuff.
i think they will lose more members than gain new members from this.

It's funny how our resident lefties still scream at the top of their lungs that no one is trying to indoctrinate your kids after we see shite like this every goddamn day.


Go over to the movie board and the resident lefties take turns screaming that Hollywood is not woke. Even when an actor or director tells us, the lefties argue wokeness only exists in the fantasies of conservatives.

I had the badges and just needed to complete the approved Eagle project.
I used to regret that I quit at Life Scout, but

I’m stumped on how this is surprising to anyone. The Boy Scouts have been a group of weirdo kids, eclectic moms, and pedo scout leaders for 30 years

The hardcore merit-badge focused troops and the ones that encouraged mom participation are. There are more casual, fun oriented troops that arent like that though. Ofc most of those troops are being targeted with these changes

The Boy Scout Law - A Scout is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent

Only an absolute piece of shite human would try and destroy an organization like this by infecting it with culture war bullshite.

This is the main reason they chose to destroy Scouting

No, considering the only reason as I stated earlier in this topic is I am with this pack because I have a daughter. My pack feeds into the biggest girls troop in the council. Only Cub Scouts is mixed gender, Boy Scouts is single gender troops.

The UMC has a female pastor, girls in BSA doesn’t bother them. They dropped us because whatever UMC calls their parish level leadership made the decision to drop BSA, this group is based in Atlanta and is much more progressive. This caused a bunch of rural Georgia UMCs in the same “parish” to leave UMC. Our church didn’t want to leave UMC and never really got involved or really pushed BSA, so they dropped us, but said they were ok with us continuing to use the facility with new paperwork to define that relationship. So this was actually progressives dropping BSA.

Citizenship in Society Merit Badge

The three other citizenship merit badges - community, nation, and world, have long been required, so this adds to it.

Here is the rewquirements.

"Learn to be a tranny" isn't on the list, so I think we will be good.

When Citizenship in the World became required, I wonder if people thought the Scouts were going to force everyone to become commies.

There’s a very weird obsession (not really because it’s whitey’s fault of course) with equating Christian values to racism.
