Why does this read like they wanna make the Boy Scouts some kind of Hitler Youth program?
because they want to make it a Hitler Youth program.
I would prefer they just dont fuck with things, its already on the edge of a Christian Nationalist organization. I am so glad my troop is not crazy and they chuckle when I substitute "with liberty and justice for some" when doing the pledge.
You should also omit “under god”, since it was only added towards the beginning of the Cold War to “differentiate us from the godless communists”.
