I'm not an authority on the critical race theory. My feeling is that everyone knows about slavery and Jim Crow laws. We've seen the video's of Bull Connor's dogs and hoses. So why the push to "teach us" about history when we have been taught and are being taught (My children know all about it)? If CR involves making white children feel bad about the past in a very personal manner that smacks of blame then I'm totally against that form of "education." I am against "education" that is forcing a way of thinking upon a white child that involves guilt and repentance in some shape or form. I am for the education that creates open minds but not minds subsequently closed again because of the indoctrination. And I certainly do not want teaching that involves kneeding of children's minds to desire taxes to pay reparations because that is a political decision that is being forced upon them.
The idea that we don't cover our racial history or don't adequately cover it is nonsensical. I went to school in the '80s and early '90s mostly in Texas. Slavery, Jim Crow, and the civil rights movement were extensively covered, and the message was universally hostile to slavery and Jim Crow and universally favorable to the civil rights movement. And this was long before wokeness or even serious political correctness became a big thing in mainstream culture.
That's why I believe ruthless patient long-game elites have appropriated the message that once was about rogue cops who deserved severe punishment into a brain-washing Liberalization of American's children. How can you not think otherwise? This forceful inclusion into the elementary curriculum is not just to update a history book because the books don't need to be updated. You are spot-on when you say slavery was viewed unfavorably (horrifically) and that the civil rights movement was glorious. MLK is an icon on the level of Gandhi. He was and is an incredibly inspiration and heroic figure. But to ram this form of education down the throats of children is the true indoctrination and it is being foisted upon us by Liberals. That is why they must be crushed in every election.
It's the same with Climate Change. They are exploiting the issue to create opportunities for massive wealth redistribution. They want government laws to mandate the redistribution and they are programming future voters to gladly do it because the tools of virtue signaling and white privilege campaigns are designed to make them want to feel good about themselves because of the guilt for being white.
I see BLM and similar ilk as bad leadership for the black community, much like Hamas is for the Palestinians. US has made peace with Hispanic and Asian folks. Certain black leaders can’t let the past go or as bystander says trying to set up a wealth grab. Regardless it is at the expense of their people.
Damn, that's dark.
But it IS correct...
Not really. He's all hopped up on formaldehyde now.
You don't need to be an expert as you already seem to have the understanding. CRT is to change from solely presenting facts like slavery was legal in the US until the Civil War to everything in the US is race based. Think white privilege, systematic racism, and how do you feel about being oppressed. Then you may wonder what it's based on, and that's the Karl Marx idea of Critical Theory, which is to complain about society to challenge power structures.
We all know how well received Marxism is in the US...
Yeah, but that is over the counter and not a prohibited substance
What the hell is systematic racism? What would poor white folks say about it? These folks don’t exist?

Ds basically ignore poor whites. There are no individuals in their mind set. You are either white or black and your group defines your identity. This is one way we know that they are completely incorrect in their understanding of the world and must be rejected.
If I may be so bold, I would like to try and define systemic racism.
Systemic Racism is the false (no empirical evidence) justification for a clarion call by liberals/wannabe socialists/communists designed to:
(1) stir up historic grievances to further the strategy of using identity politics to divide voting bases in order to maintain the Democrat's stronghold on uneducated black voters, and to appease the liberal white voters needing to feel a sense of moral superiority, despite the fact that Liberal policies do nothing to improve the status of black voters. Demagoguery pays off in publicity and votes!
(2) propose new legislation that is ultimately designed to transfer wealth from those that earned the wealth to those that did not
(3) allow ideological litmus tests to be used for hiring and firing employees in business, government and at universities, and determine admission to universities
One of the more arrogant and tweets on this Twitter thread:
"The point of the “defund the police” movement isn’t to encourage more crime. It’s about putting money into impoverished communities so they don’t have to resort to crime. You know who won’t steal cars? People who can afford their own car. Duh."
With this kind of merciless arrogance and assumed intelligence/superiority, nothing will ever be solved.
When my tax dollars come with value training and other work for aid programs, I will happily contribute.
Big Tobacco Hooked Black Americans On Menthols. Now It Fights Ban As Racial Injustice.
Look at this article... blacks were trick-f'd into smoking menthols. Can you believe the patronism towards blacks? It's as if they are stupid and unable to make good choices, yet someone tricked them. Of course, it wasn't white Liberals, only Republican whites.
I can't believe how incredibly elitist Liberals are.
I know the article is about how Big Tobacco is trying to survive but the whole premise makes me ill.

I tell you they’re moving back toward segregation- separate but ‘equal’.
Also Victorian times for women. Just looking at a woman the wrong way or say the wrong thing can damage her fragile emotional state.

I think he was just suspended for it, and went back to his job plus 150 grand from GoFundMe donations.
It's funnier than anything that human douche Steve Colbert has come up with in 5 years, besides the time he was forced to call Andrew Cuomo "Your Excellency".
Ultimately, CRT is irreconcilable with MLK's vision and frankly any Western or Judeo-Christian value set.
