Critical Race Theory: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

From YouTube,
"John Oliver explains what critical race theory is, what it isn’t, and why we can expect to hear more about it in the coming months."

It’s hilarious to me that the right wing has become so cowardly and infantile that it has absolutely lost it’s shit and given up pretending they aren’t totally racist fucks all because of a law school course discussing incontrovertible systemic racism like people being labeled 3/5 of a citizen and not having the right to vote that their false jingoistic history requires them to deny.

Anyone complaining about CRT should be forced to define it and give examples of it being taught in grade school, then popped directly in the mouth for being a bold faced racist liar.

Whoever came up with the CRT lie is to be commended, it tricked the right into bringing their racism out front as their main party platform. Opposing CRT means anyone calling themselves Republican or right wing has just declared themselves a stupid dishonest racist fuck that can be ignored and ridiculed into suicide without qualms.

Not even one bit surprised you bought into the dishonest racist fervor.
You don’t get mad at children for being childish, you just feel sad they are such disappointments.

luxintenebrissays...

good video. quality information and commentary.

if they want to pass a law how 'bout having to read the books they want to ban? then give a book report on it to the teachers and school board. have them list the offense(s) of the book.

kill the monster in its stride.

addendum: some serious consideration on charter schools

also plenty of reports on devos' devastation in MI if one wants to review how well it hasn't work.

"... children of color learn about race from a very young age..."

Children of color have to learn and become experts about race, racism and racists because their survival in america depends on it.

luxintenebrisjokingly says...

gave this some thought...if teachers can't teach 'uncomfortable' history, then they'd have to steer away from all the Americans that experienced some form of xenophobia, bias, or bigotry during their times...

shortlist;

- Germans
- Italians
- Irish
- Japanese
- Chinese
- Hawaiians
- native Americans
- African Americans

...and more.*

so it's more a wish than honesty.

how can they give an accounting of any president's administration or trials during their terms? trail of tears, teapot dome, watergate, iran-contra...presidents sleeping w/women not their wives - and even one w/their wife but still adulterous.

but if those who don't want to know can do what the rest of the people in my h.s. did: ignore it and squeak by. then they can qualify to be Republicans.

(btw: wasn't "truth matters: not your tears" a popular refrain recently?)

sure. sometimes i don't want to know...but that should be MY choice and not YOUR'S.

*if i missed your group, it was on purpose. less spoken, better said (satire)

TheFreaksays...

Don't forget that the US right wing also declared themselves fascists when they sided against the anti-fascist (Antifa) movement.
