US Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has shared a video of an outraged mother confronting a teacher over the display of an LGBTQ+ Pride flag in a classroom. However, the video was staged, and Greene seems not to have realized that. Greene shared only a brief clip of the video, showing the mother taking down the flag, which was covering a map of the United States, and asking the teacher why it was hanging there. The mother said, “This needs to go in the garbage.” She said she’s teaching her son to be a man and that the instructor should stick to teaching history. The video shows the mother and the teacher arguing for several minutes over who has the right to do what in the classroom. Greene shared the first minute and 22 seconds of the video. The full video runs six minutes and 41 seconds on Facebook, and toward the end, its creator, comedian Jibrizi, reveals it’s a skit and asks viewers for their comments. Some commenters on X pointed out that the situation playing out in the video wasn’t real. But Greene stuck to her narrative, commenting, “If this is a fake or a skit, it’s a very good representation of exactly how people feel.”
