We do have two Americas. Unless we start to understand why a wall has been erected to divide us the wall will never come down.
The ACLU emailed a podcast today that is a must listen for those who want to know why liberals and progressives are outraged at citizens, parents, and Republicans who are opposed to Critical Race Theory. It is only 35 minutes but it is very enlightening.
I have 2 1/2 pages of notes I could add, but I’m only going to give you a couple. Nowhere in this podcast are democrats blamed for anything. They aren’t blamed for the KKK, it is implied people showing up at school board meetings would support them today. White Supremacy is demanding cameras in classrooms while the same people don’t want police body cams.
This podcast is filled with easily disproven rhetoric, but if you don’t know the un-truths being told you can’t bridge the divide CRT is intended to create. We have to know. Take 35 minutes to listen, then comment.
One more hint: The lady being interviewed is associated with this website: https://www.aapf.org/
That website is associated with Howard Zinn, a guy who doesn’t think America is exceptional: https://www.howardzinn.org/myth-american-exceptionalism-mit/
Diane you’ve lots of very smart readers and you’re no dummy yourself. So, could someone please tell me why is the left, now most all democrats, want to destroy America? I’m a big believer in the “follow the money” (power) theory but I don’t see that in this instance. I’ve begun to think it’s actually destroy or subjugate White people…..that’s the only thing that adds up. What am I not seeing?
Can’t achieve global socialism with a free country not complying. We must be subjugated to countries already imprisoned by their government. That is why Biden did nothing for the Cubans crying for freedom.
Rebbec22, I don’t think they want to destroy America, they prefer a government by the government, not by the people, especially the ones they don’t like.
They have a completely different social morality than conservatives. Social morality holds societies, communities and nations together with bonds of trust. Trust enables us to have a democracy. Their broken morality destroys trust between citizens and then our democracy and nation falls into their hands. You can’t deny that trust is between citizens is at an all time low.
CRT is an outgrowth of Marxism. Marxism wanted to force socialism then communism on a nation by dividing its citizens into economic classes. It is undeniable that Critical Theory (racial and sexual) will divide citizens by race and sexual identities.
Are they really wanting to solve the racism problem as they say or are they wanting to impose government control on its citizens? Well their solution to solving the race problem is absolutely idiotic so I would say the later.
Listened to the interview, if you want to call it that.
I would love to see Crenshaw interviewed by someone like James Lindsay instead of someone who is advocating for her. Would she? Not a chance.
Her proof of *current*, *specific* systemic racism remains undefined other than things that happened in a much different America 70 to 150 years ago. Statistics do not provide proof of cause. They prove there is a problem, they don’t prove what the causes are.
Let me take a stab. Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, the world has been run by corporatist oligarchs for sometime, including the United States. Trump, a capitalist himself of the highest order but unfortunately also a nationalist, came along and had to be dealt with in anyway possible. America First policies would have ruined the internationalists plan world economic and monetary domination. It is why these monetary and globalist elites meet in private and organizations such as the Bilderbergs are needed to make 10, 25 and 50 year plans. Politicians are needed to make sure political policies are established to make sure the same people remain rich and therefore, maintain their positions of power and influence on the society at large. Think the BN Elitist Clique for a local example. Since the beginning, wars and military campaigns have been fought and executed pretty much to determine who controls the bank and who makes the rules. All military conflicts are pretty much based on economics…someone else wants something someone else has. The social justice warriors really aren’t interested in making anyone’s life better. They are just pissed off they were goofing off when everyone else was not and are jealous but want to rule you and take your stuff anyway. Think of Roger Daltry telling you “here is the new boss, same as the old boss.” It’s hard to believe but there are many people in the world where there is never enough money or power. The Rothchild’s, Rockefeller’s, Soros, Vanderbilt’s, Carnegie’s, etc. and people like them are your rulers. They don’t care what government you and I have as long as they are calling the shots. In this time in history, the United States has become the problem. In order for China to rule the world, the USA must be disposed of. It’s what most of this is about.
