Wtf? What about child marriage? How does that even compare to dodgeball? Strange linking.
Anyways, hello dear friends! I have another golden article for ya. Really shows the type of ‘future citizen’ they want to shape the youth into.
Hint: Weak!
Yes, and with all schoolyard games. It’s 100% voluntary participation. It’s completely up to your child weather they want to try and fail and try again, or never try at all. These schoolyard games build character and develop one’s personal drive to succeed at whatever they do.
As far as being “dehumanized by the word “it”. How in this era of a thousand pronouns, would you come to think that the word “it” is more dehumanizing than say “ze”, “zir”, chair or lamp? I don’t know! Don’t care,it’s just a word! What are you supposed to say when you tag someone, “You’re Jim!”?
Do you really think that the kid being tagged is feeling dehumanized? Kids don’t think about words like that. They just see and do and play and learn and are genuinely happy just to be a part of the play. It’s about having fun, and that’s what these games provide, a level of fun and bonding that we as adults tend to overlook because we are too busy overthinking, that we miss the simple things in life.
Capture the flag is a game of teamwork and strategy. It’s about reaching your goal and bringing back the rewards for your team. It’s not materialistic, that’s an oversimplification and just plain stupid. You’re stupid!
I don’t remember British bulldog very well and I never heard of red ass. However, I would imagine that they too are not quite how you are trying to spin them. Regardless, all voluntary games that bring a level of fun and joy that you can no longer appreciate or understand.
Oh, “sidelines of shame” NICE! Never knew it was called that lol. I was one of those strong athletic types. So I didn’t spend a lot of time on the “sidelines of shame”.
“Hierarchies of privilege based on athletic skill”
AhWhaaaaaa?
Wait so you’re saying that these kids with athletic ability, are there by privilege, and not by their own merit? It couldn’t have anything to do with their hard work and drive to win the game? This is fucking lunacy! You want to eliminate dodgeball because of weak shitty kids, that don’t succeed right away.
Then what? Replace it with a game, where everyone is equally bad? Isn’t that privilege? Granting a special right to a specific group of people? Wtf is this crap?
They want to flip it. Weak over the strong. Soften society by promoting the marshmallow people above all other types. The type of people that would never question the state. The type that would never rise up and rebel against the power structure. The perfect little, weak, marshmallowy “citizen of liberal democracy” right?
Oh my, the “hidden curriculum” of dodgeball is “nefarious”? Right, and transgender woman have “lady dicks” and periods once a month. This is all very believable, I’m believing it all!..... Did you believe me when I said I believed it? No? Well that’s because saying it doesn’t make it so.
I don’t give a shit what a psycho-feminist Marion Young (who’s probably part of the tribe you’re not suppose to talk about) has to say about equality. If you are part of an ism, you already have a bias.
Oh well, is the solution to make it so no one can excell and become strong adults.
Maybe, just maybe we take those who are weak and struggling and we work on them. Help them become stronger, more resilient people. Maybe the answer is to raise them to the level of the alpha males and females, rather than doing away with games where the stronger more agile people can thrive. The type of people who will form our society in the future.
Well, that will have to change, won’t it? Maybe instead of a Phys Ed teacher, we could have an inclusion coach, maybe a physical equality guide?
For example: let’s reference your entertainment mind control. A movie starring all adults, and is a very over the top and silly exaggeration of the game. Yes! Let’s compare the two.
Now hold on! When I played dodgeball (or any sport for that matter) I was often singled out because I was a better player. I did the same to the better players of the opposing team. In fact we all do this because that’s what makes sense to do. See, there’s a little thing about sports you probably don’t know (because you were probably weak yourself) its a thing called strategy.
Yes, the strategy in most elimination sports, is to take out the strongest players, not the weakest. It wouldn’t make any sense to gang up on the weakest players, they’re not a threat. You need to take out the pillars to bring down the house.
I know what they’re doing though. They’re trying to conflate competitive games and strong alpha athletes with bullying, and we all know how badly they want to #EndBullying, #EndHate.
“A stereotypical nerd” wouldn’t play dodgeball anyway, because they tend to have other interests. Schoolyard dodgeball is voluntary and all inclusive or there wouldn’t even be weak kids playing. Do you understand how fucking dumb a conversation about the ‘Problems’ with dodgeball is?
It’s really dumb, and I would school the shit out of any fucktard who wants to tell me dodgeball is anything other than an all inclusive and fun game for kids. It’s a classic game! I have never taken as anything more than just a game. It’s never been a serious game, and has always just been for fun. A reward for the kids after working hard during the teaching part of the lesson.
What is being missed here, is that it’s a team sport. Where weak and strong are mixed together. The strong protect the weak and work together to eliminate the other team (typically the stronger players first). It’s not about cruelty, that’s just how you are trying to twist it. That’s why you have to use a parody movie as an example. So dumb people might think you have a point.
I supposed we can expect that eventually we will see the phasing out of all the schoolyard games of yesteryear, and in their place games like I don’t know...Centrifugal Bumble-Puppy maybe? Anyways!

Hahahaha!
Okay, I hated dodgeball. But I've never been particularly athletic, definitely not fast... though I was often fairly good at dodging, so I would inevitably be one of the last ones in there, but afraid to try to catch the ball!
Still, that doesn't mean that I would vilify the game... The others too.
OMG, my coddled children might realize that they aren't the best at everything... might realize that they are sometimes tagged out, are the slowest, or the clumsiest...
Most of the time, I chose to not play the games I wasn't good at - or had a good attitude and played even though I knew I would lose. Maybe because the game can be fun, even if you don't win???
My sons, at their school in England, found games banned all the time because there was too much physical contact. Tag was out... Bulldog (as mentioned) was out... so, they'd invent a new game to play - usually indistinguishable from the banned games though... At the end of the day, kids will be kids, and they need to stop penalizing them for being normal.

Kids need to learn to ‘keep at it’ if they ever want to become good st something. Or alternatively they just enjoy playing the game (key word), regardless of the results.
Hey, you would of been a good teammate! Other team throws the ball at you and misses, giving your team posession of this ball. lol

If someone had thought of that, I might have come to like the game. :-)
