Maybe the kids really are all right, to paraphrase The Who (and, apparently, Chloe x Halle). At least the kids in Loudoun County have a clear look at truth over fads, and biology over wokery. Too bad the adults in charge have it the other way around.
That, however, is precisely what some Virginia teens want to change. In an echo of the parents' revolt four years ago, WJLA reported yesterday that Loudoun teens are taking to the streets to defeat school-board incumbents that want to allow males into female spaces, especially locker rooms and bathrooms (via Twitchy):
New: Virginia teens are greeting Loudoun County voters at the polls and asking them to vote for school board candidates who would restore girl only and boy only bathrooms and locker rooms in Loudoun County Public Schools.

As early voting is underway, some teens are greeting Loudoun County voters at the polls and asking them to choose school board candidates who would restore girl only and boy only bathrooms and locker rooms in Loudoun County Public Schools.
On Monday, outside Claude Moore Recreation Center and Community Center, the teens could be heard saying:
“I am in support for Matt Malone.”
“He is helping the students protect boys from coming in girls’ locker rooms.”
Malone has challenged incumbent LCPS board member April Chandler, who actively supports the current policy of allowing boys to "identify" as girls to access their locker rooms and bathrooms. This has been controversial for at least the last four years, when parents revolted against this policy after LCPS covered up sexual assaults that took place under this policy. Subsequent investigations showed that LCPS violated mandatory reporting requirements to keep such incidents from being made public. It took more than a year for LCPS superintendent Scott Ziegler to get fired over the scandal, only after a grand jury indicted him on three misdemeanors connected to the scandal. The LCPS public information officer, Wayde Byard got indicted on a felony perjury count at the same time.
Four years ago, Loudoun teens walked out to protest the policy and the cover-ups:

This also made news when the Department of Justice took an interest in the scandal. Then-Attorney General Merrick Garland and the Biden Regency weren't concerned about Title IX violations in LCPS schools, however. They wanted to investigate the parents as potential domestic-terrorism suspects. The outrage over both launched Glenn Youngkin into the governor's office in Virginia.
And this still has resonance in gubernatorial elections to this day. Guess which side Democrat nominee Abigail Spanberger supports? Lauren DeBellis Appell offers a hint: It's not the girls!
While Spanberger has largely taken a vow of silence on the consequences of the disastrous policies she pushes that violate women and girls — minus a few garbled word salads she was forced to choke out — her votes speak for themselves.
Not only did she vote against the "Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act," she voted for hiding child gender transitions from parents, while schools encourage them.
She also voted for the anything-but-equal "Equality Act," which disregards our daughters and sets them back decades by letting men encroach on and violate their most sacred spaces. Since there’s a fancy name on it, she’s hoping you’re too dumb to notice.
When pressed to answer whether girls should be forced to get naked in front of boys, it resulted in an excruciating nearly three-minute, incoherent ramble about rotational grazing practices, sounding like something out of the Kamala school of communications.
Kudos to the brave teens standing up to the radicals, telling the truth, and asking voters to hold these radicals accountable at the ballot box. I only hope that their faith in the voters of Loudoun County and the commonwealth of Virginia is not misplaced.
