Trump gave a weird speech to thousands of Boy Scouts in which he relitigated election & crowd sizes (again)

What I am trying to say is that the scouts in the UK have moved on from their original start in the BB to be a more accepting organisation, but the BB still sticks to it’s Christian and military roots.

Of course I am probably biased by being a former BB member and hating it (it was fun until I left juniors, then the weekly drill practice made me wish I was doing something, anything, else). Being afraid they would find out I was trans* didn’t help, they were sexist and homophobic as it was.

The BB is probably the perfect organisation for US religious conservatives though, and it would allow the BSA to reform itself.
