Critical race theory and elections

[n_huffhines]

Do you really think the same posters who don't understand the difference between socialism, communism, and Marxism and can't go two threads without using epithets, insults, and othering have the wherewithal to read, much less internalize, any of that?

I have hope for some people. I don't support teaching CRT to K-12, which I don't think is much of a concern. Banning it is bananas though. The misinformation is the biggest issue to me. Holy hell, people are running wild with this stuff. Not sure if I changed or the right did. Probably both, but it's crazy and totally disheartening.

Social constructionism is bull ****.

Social constructionism is bull ****.

Social constructivism may be bull hockey, but this board is rife with it. The number of people who constantly post how "All/most of Population X are Negative Characteristic Y" are operating in the heart of constructivism. They are creating their own narrative through their interactions with and opinions of others' narratives.

I’m glad you agree that the very foundation of CRT is ****

Wow. Your statement holy hell people are running wild with this stuff is what is disheartening. It’s implying that those who have problems with CRT, especially when it comes to its instruction to their children, are either overreacting or acting foolishly. Misinformation? Yeah I guess only what you post is correct info on the matter. Forget what others have said about it.

Lawsuit: Illinois School District Forced Students On ‘Privilege Walks,’ Compared ‘Whiteness’ To The Devil

A lawsuit filed against an Illinois school district Tuesday alleges that the district violated anti-discrimination laws while teaching “anti-racist” course work.

“Fostering racial identities, promoting the idea that they are in conflict, and perpetuating divisive stereotypes pits teachers and children against one another based on the color of their skin,” the lawsuit says. “They teach them that their whole identity comes from the color of their skin. They teach them to hate each other. They teach them not only how to be racist, but that they should be racist.”

Exclusive: NH School Employee Resigns Citing ‘Anti-White’ Critical Race Theory Staff Training

Dan Concannon admits the resignation letter he emailed to the Manchester School District and Breitbart News is over the top and, as he described it, “bombastic” and even insulting. But Concannon said he felt justified after being asked to take part in critical race theory training.

Concannon told Breitbart News that he felt targeted by what he calls “anti-white” propaganda at the school.

“There was this intentional disrespect there because they’re the ones with absolute utter disrespect, not to mention hatred,” Concannon said.

His resignation letter also mocked the district for its policy to allow students in elementary school to choose their pronouns by signing off with a long list of pronouns.

“In closing, I wish the Trotsky disciples at MSD nothing but failure in their ongoing quest for civilizational degradation,” Concannon wrote. “I leave you with the only verbal response befitting any attempt at anti-white indoctrination: “*** you.”

White Indiana student born in abusive home asks how can she have ‘white privilege’ in viral video
'How can a child born in a drug and alcohol abuse home who lost her entire biological family, that has experienced all forms of abuse, be privileged?'

As the nationwide conversation on critical race theory continues, a White Indiana student has spoken up against the idea of “White privilege” in a viral video clip. Republican lawmakers across the board have asserted that critical race theory is un-American and racist. Arguing that it will further divide the country, they have pushed harder and harder to make it illegal in classrooms.

America's largest teachers' union backs teaching Critical Race Theory to Children and calls for October rally to commemorate George Floyd's birthday

• The National Educator's Association recently announced it backs the teaching of critical race theory in schools

America's largest teachers' union has announced it backs the teaching of critical race theory in schools - and wants an October 14 rally to be held in honor of George Floyd's birthday.

The National Educator's Association recently approved a resolution to promote critical race theory through its existing channels, assemble a team to teach it to union members and create a 'national day of action' to start a dialogue about systemic racism on October 14 – George Floyd's birthday.

The resolution reads that the NEA will 'provide an already-created, in-depth, study that critiques empire, white supremacy, anti-Blackness, anti-Indigeneity, racism, patriarchy, cisheteropatriarchy, capitalism, ableism, anthropocentrism and other forms of power and oppression at the intersections of our society.'

President Becky Pringle has also agreed to make public statements in support of critical race theory and 'racial honesty in education'

In addition to its plans, the NEA will join with Black Lives Matter at School and the Zinn Education Project to create a 'national day of action' on October 14 – George Floyd's birthday – to have a dialogue on systemic racism

The resolution promises that the NEA will oppose efforts to ban critical race theory and The 1619 Project, a collection of essays, photo essays, short fiction pieces and poems published by the New York Times Magazine in August 2019 to 'reframe' American history based on the impact of slaves brought to the US.

How can there be systemic racism? Joe Biden has been in government for 50 years... wouldn't he have done something about it by now? I don't understand.

It doesn’t really matter what political label you put on what is being peddled right now in the schools an Universities of this country. It has went by many names throughout history and it is a political tool used to establish authoritarian regimes on the right and left. It is as old as mankind itself and can be boiled down to convincing a large portion of the population of a society that they are oppressed and kept down by the people that currently hold power. Feed the envy, hatred and division until you can destabilize the society enough to overthrow or co-opt the existing power structure. Then the poeople who led the revolution (it can be violent or bloodless, it matters not) consolidate power, cast aside the useful idiots who brought them to power and oppress people even more. It is not an economic question or even a political system question, it is about fragmenting a society through perceived oppression and using that to take power. Lenin and Hitler both used it and it has brought about socialism as well as state co opted capitalism

The problem is CRT has been hitched to 1619 project, white fragility, etc. There are so many problems with both historically for the former and scientifically for the latter that any meaningful discussion gets lost.

Discussions based on race are valid and meaningful, but make no mistake there is a political and cultural element here that is toxic because it is built on lazy or just plain made up science and history.

You can't ask someone else to be honest with themselves when you claim the absurd.

The real problem is that 13% of the population wants to believe its on the same level as the majority of the country in all aspects of this country, past, present, and future. They aren't. Marginal impact & contribution is often the reason people are "marginalized".

Battle Over Critical Race Theory Will Determine the Future of the American Republic

Virginia’s current battle over critical race theory in schools exemplifies the cultural war now raging. Critical race theory is a subset of “wokeism,” or woke culture. This movement seeks to permanently divide our country.

The eyes of the nation are focused on these school board proceedings. Parents in Virginia’s Loudoun County school district are at the forefront of this battle for America’s soul. If the woke movement prevails, the future of the American republic is questionable.
