I’m not sure if this is the right for it, but I found this interesting.

An Oklahoma school added an item to their curriculum to teach the 2020 election conspiracy. There was already a rule allowing parents to have their kids opt out of classes they objected to; this had been intended for use on what might be considered “woke” subjects. So a group prepared opt-out forms that the parents could use on the conspiracy classes.

Of course, the local Republicans are up in arms, trying to find ways to have the opt-out forms declared invalid.

Internet handle for a social media Trump sycophant.

> **[Catturd](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catturd)**

> Catturd (born September 18, 1964) is the online identity of right-wing American Twitter shitposter and Internet troll Phillip Buchanan. The account is known for its scatological humor, as well as spreading conspiracy theories and disinformation. Buchanan lives in Wewahitchka, Florida, on a "ranch in the middle of nowhere".
> Buchanan was born on September 18, 1964. He is thrice-divorced. He married his first wife, whom he met at a gym when she was 19 and he was in his early 20s, in September 1...

A Twitter troll from the ass end of Florida. Fond of conspiracy theories and scatological humor.
