IRVING, TX — In a step toward greater inclusion, The Boy Scouts Of America announced this week that it will be just going by “Of” from here on out.
“We realized our name had a lot of problematic terms, like ‘Boy,’ ‘Scouts,’ and ‘America’ in it,” Scouting executive Tim Galbraith told reporters. “We decided ‘Of’ was much more inclusive and pinpoints what scouting, I mean, um… ‘of-ing’ really means. Go Of!”
Traditionally an all-boys organization designed to foster rugged, masculine patriotism and service in young men, scouting has come under fire in recent years for not including girls, trans-girls, trans-boys, and two-spirit genderqueer child drag queen polycules. Leaders say the name change showcases ‘Of’s’ commitment to transitioning itself from a beneficial program for young men into just another watered-down all-gender after-school program run by communist weirdos.
“We feel this is the best way to completely torpedo any remaining relevance scouting had,” Galbraith said. “We’re working on a whole new program aimed specifically at creating an inclusive, generic, all-gender environment sure to attract today’s modern kids. Go ‘Of’!”
As of publishing time, ‘Of’ had rebranded to just “–” after some people pointed out the word “of” is offensive to a remote tribe in Subsarahan Africa that goes by a similar name.

Lol. Wait, don’t give them ideas.
When I was still working, the CEO of my company, AT&T, and the CEO of UPS, sat on the board of the Boy Scouts. They were instrumental in making all the changes you see today. Allowing queers to be scout leaders and allowing girls to be boy scouts.
The globohomo cabal have attacked and done a very good job of programming changes into the psyche of young people. It sickens me to no end and, of course, it is all the work of the evil one and those he has influenced in this very messed up world.
I join in the disgust, Brew but there’s an upside to this. The BSA was created by a Brit loyalist as a paramilitary unit to train young boys to be dead soldiers. I say shit-can the entire outfit.
tossing the baby out with the bathwater.
Why not shit can the ‘leaders’ and take back an institution that taught young kids about the ourdoors, camping, toxic masculinity stuff. Look beyond the surface
Because the U S has had enough of losing wars.
What does camping, outdoor activities and teaching boys to become men have to do with the US losing wars?? Name three US ‘leaders’ that were boy scouts, name one.
Its not the boy scout organization thats wrong, its the fags and communists that have overtaken it.
As always, deal with the problem and the issues will resolve themselves.
I understand what you are saying but, the code and what was taught to boys was to be men. Men who would be leaders, to set goals and to achieve them, and to be strong morally.
The boy scout code statement:
“On my honor, I will do my best To do my duty to God and my country And to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight.”
Keep that part but lose the play-soldier part.
I was a scout leader and we never played soliers.
Did you play with boys?
The leader of the troupe (surely its not a den-mother anymore, is it?) will wash you mouth out with soap after repeating those racist, sexist, homophobic and global-warming causing words.
>>>Allowing queers to be scout leaders
The absolute (and predictable) Kiss of Death. ANYBODY could have seen it coming.
Instead of OF, how about FO?
When they try to sell their popcorn outside the local home improvement store I frequent, I politely tell the parents that I choose to not support such an organization…..as a former boy scout.
This is extremely important. Especially if you tell them why. I assume this will be called hate at some point.
I tell them why…and walk away. Most say nothing, but I’m sure you are right….it will soon be considered hate speech. F@ck ’em!
I feel sorry for people that link the current team of scouts with some kind of honorable recognition of the great America.
As a practical matter, the quality of the popcorn being sold is inferior. I don’t mind overpaying for a good product in support of our kids-and usually buy 40 or more $5 boxes of Girl Scout cookies over the course of their 4 week selling season. BSA-if it ever hopes to be worth a shit again-could easily project something positive if they were to peddle quality popcorn, even at their outrageous prices.
Reflecting reality as it does, unlike MSM, and even much supposedly independent reporting as well, The Bee has ceased to be funny. It truly has become simply straight factual reportage by now. The Babylon Bee has become the The Paper Of Record.
great movie, very prescient with a great script. The scathing monologue delivered to Howard by Arthur Jensen (Ned Beatty) about commerce and national sovereignty is one of the more spot-on points Chayefsky makes in the movie, and should be plainly evident today, but it is seldom referenced.
As a former Scout Master I am not surprise by this complete and abject betrayal of an organization I grew up in and loved. I knew the end was coming years ago when they permitted women to be Scout Masters, it was only a matter of time before the DEI bastards killed the Scouting program. We have lost our country, our freedom and our children…my rage is building, come November I suspect I won’t be alone.
This is what happens when the People cede to the infiltrators. Compromising NEVER ends up well for the willful compromised.
The ONLY solutions are start another organization, but we know that ain’t gonna happen. Or, take back the organization from the fags and communists, but we know that ain’t gonna happen either. insouciance dialed to max
I hear they now give merit badges for sodomy and gluttony.
LGBTQ+ Scouts For Socialism
LGBTQ+ Scouts For Socialism Gala at Mar-a-Lago TBD but probably last week in October. The band, Brokeback Mountain will be performing.
This is great. Reminds me of when The Dixie Chicks had to change their name to “The.” And when Lady Antebellum had to change her name to “A.”
“had to change”…. “sold out to the bastards”….there FIFY……
This is the entire problem once you boil it down as far as possible. It’s about $$. I believe in the end times and the mark of the beast.
It’s about $$ and Socialist winning, common public losing ie Power.
They did those cowardly things by choice.
The above was supposed to be a joke. In reality, The Dixie Chicks changed their name to The Chicks, not realizing they were still in trouble with that. And Lady Antebellum tried to change her name to Lady A, and got sued by another artist (who is black, I think) that had been using that name for years prior. Too funny.
Trump’s first Sec State was the one responsible for turning Scouts gay, IIRC.
Yes he was. Trump will not save us.
No one will save us, this nation is to far gone already.
As sulfur and fire reign down on Mar-a-Lago. It could happen.
Sulfur and fire may reign down on Mar-a-Largo as well as LA,San Francisco,NYC,etc. The good news with Mar-a-Largo is you will not have to jump over syringes and human shyte as you flee the flames.
Mr. Priest, Mr. Palmer and Mr.Laird of Troop 2 in Kansas City Kansas in 1050’s would be appalled. RIP.
Take a look at what happened to Kaw Council-now a step-child of the KCMO council. Membership is by annual “subscription” that was recently changed to a charge of nearly $100 for kids and over $100 for leaders. Bankruptcy has its costs in both financial as well as moral ways these days.
Ernest Thompson Seton is spinning in his grave fast enough to generate electricity over this latest BSA debacle.
To Hell with those fags.
Its really the “America”part they hate,why continue the charade?…….The Bee will be prescient yet again…..
“… creating an inclusive, generic, all-gender environment sure to attract today’s modern kids. Go ‘Of’!””
Go Fuck Off! is the real message.
All part of the Communist process to destroy every once-proud American institution to include Academia, Law, Medicine, and Science. In the meanwhile replacing it with either infantile or anti-social including demonic influenced culture. We see it EVERYWHERE.
Humiliation, insult and mockery has been used strategically to infiltrate, demoralize and conquer a mighty superpower.
Never worry; Globohomoshlomo is planning to market the newly formed Gay Scouts for maximum penetration of the virgin teen market.
Abigal had a post here that I commented on. Big Brother, Outward Bound and other great institutions were also taken over and destroyed.
Its what these communist fags have done and rather than go after the REAL problem everyone seems ok with going after the victims. Get rid of the fuckers CAUSING the problems and not the ones reacting to the problems caused by the communists and traitors.
Scouts of Americuck
I suspect the same will now happen to the Methodist religion group of churches.
They voted 80-20 to allow full LGBTQ not just Gay
The Methodists went to hell over 20 years ago, same as other kindred Protestant cults.
Probably end times in the next week or so as God rains sulfur and fire on the United Sates and the rest of the world just like was done to Sodom and Gomorrah. End times for the everyone in US anyway.
Just another sign of the impending apocalypse. “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Not the best bible verse for this article but I think you get the point.
