James Lindsay: "Counter Wokecraft" and Responses to Institutional Takeover 

100%

@Skelley that makes no sense at all

I checked it out and there were numerous anti semites in the chat saying anti Semitic things. That’s his community.

@@praetentious2925 you just said two different things... 1. There were people in the chat saying ant-semitic things 2. That's his "community" I don't doubt the first one is true, mainly because there's alot of people who are suspicious of jews to a whatever degree...but the second part is patently absurd for several reasons. If you care to discuss this further I will continue, but if not I will just leave it at disagreement.

@@hegemonycricket2182 his message attracts anti semites because his message is na zi propaganda from the 1930s.

100%

Hey James, what’s with all the anti semitism in your channels chat?

At least by doing so they revealed the manipulation of language that is a hallmark of Wokecult influence.

What University? I'd like to read that rule.

Not very "inclusive" of the people who like meat. LOL

@@sues3218 bingo. That's the thing, when they say "inclusive" they actually mean the opposite. Same with "diversity", "ant-racist", "anti-fascist", etc...

@Sue s I think "like" (any preference-based reasoning) is why that argument won't work.* For instance, I like peanuts (I love peanuts!) but I can't bring peanuts wherever I like anymore, because of people with peanut allergies. You like meat, but you wouldn't HAVE to have meat in university meals (whereas someone like Jordan Peterson's daughter Mikhaila actually would have to have meat). *James' solution for the vegan family member does work, because it allows the vegans to be vegan and the omnivores to be omnivore. That's how my own family works -- and we have a mix of food requirements and preferences.

RU-vid is ruled by the very people who push the thing James Lindsay is exposing for what it is. There are no cracks there are giant holes and people with brooms sweeping in as much of the wrongthink as they can.

I'm at every school board meeting, and I don't even have kids.

@@aprilkurtz1589 I think that’s amazing honestly. I wish everyone would take that level of commitment for children.

@SCUBA Man Brian I just do it to make sure crazy people don't end up on the school board. Kids deserve to have a factual education. I don't speak usually, but I will if someone's being ridiculous. Right now the thing to fight about is masks, I guess. FFS. I also go because I pay property taxes to support the schools, and I want generations of smart, savvy, tough and empathetic kids to come out of those buildings. I like to volunteer for stuff like helping with school lunches. I couldn't have kids, and volunteering for stuff around the school is almost as good as having a kid of your own. Kinda sorta. The schools are so short staffed right now!

@@aprilkurtz1589 data has shown that especially cloth masks have done absolutely nothing to stop the spread of COVID, and children in particular are almost exclusively unable to wear them properly even if they are wearing a N95. More and more data is coming out now if the psychological negative effects from masks on children. If I wear a parent, I’d have long ago taken my child to private or homeschooling if the school district insisted on making children wear something on their face all day for nothing. Personally, I think our public schools are just about as complete a failure as they could be. While the rest of the world keeps getting farther ahead academically, we’ve decided to actually deprioritize math, reading, and science in order to push DE&I to children. I hope lots more parents and taxpayers like yourself delve into the problems of education, because todays kids will be adults in the blink of an eye.

Why is it a bad theory?

Because it is a cospiracy theory that insists that white people have all conspired to oppress "non whites", both consciously and unconsciously. In the eyes of CRT: The white people who are leftists that advocate CRT are racists because they're only doing it for social praise; The white people who ignore it are racists because they're not fighting "the system" and are complacent/benefitting from "the system"; The white people who fight CRT are racists for defending "the system" that oppresses "non whites"; Those annoying "non whites" that disagree or are successful such as: Jews, Japanese, Chinese, Indians, and African Immigrants (who all do even better than white people financially). Why do they do better? Internalized racism (the CRT way of saying house n*gger). They only succeed because they "act white". For example: they believe in rationality, time management, hard work, family, etc. All things that "white people" invented to oppress "non whites". CRT is the ideology of envious lazy people, who feel betrayed by the world. They would rather see it destroyed since they cant stand the guilt of knowing that they're parasites. Thus, they have made up an entire religion that simultaneously justifes their own laziness and explains why those who are NOT lazy (white they call "white people") must be destroyed. Thats what socialism is, in the end. A parasitic mind worm that convinces useless people that they deserve the wealth generated from others. CRT calls non white people lazy by nature and white people hard working by nature. It is a white supremacist movement all on it's own. Its our job to fight white supremacy. 😉

@@rewerstfd You seem nice.

@April Kurtz Thx bb 😘

@@rewerstfd I think you would be a great person to teach kids what's wrong with crt. We already have the textbooks. So teach why the textbooks are wrong. Then burn them.

Who?

It depends on what you mean by CRT. There’s a pretty straight line between what institutions are calling DE&I (Diversity Equity and Inclusion) and CRT. In the same way that elementary school doesn’t teach quantum physics but does teach basic math, CRT gets boiled down to the practical application of those principles in the form of DE&I.

@@scubamanbrian1518 Well, the chuckleheads are protesting CRT being taught in grade school. It is not. It never has been. It's a fucking lie from the get go. If they had been against DE&I, they should have said DE&I. Just like way back at the beginning of this farce they called themselves teabaggers.

@@aprilkurtz1589 well, I’m all about accuracy in terms. For instance, redefining racism to mean anything a white personal does or trying to redefine “man” or “woman” away from the traditional definition. That being said, are you angry that the term CRT is being used, or are you angry that DE&I is being recognized as destructive to students? I’m not sure what you meant by saying some people referred to themselves as “teabaggers”. If you’re referring to the Tea Party movement, I would like to correct you. No one from the Tea Party called themselves this. It was a term created by democrats to try and insult the Tea Party, as well as the false reports that the Tea Party were comprised of racists.

You are naive to think that the "long march through the institutions" doesn't include all levels of education.

Yes, this disinformation point about CRT “not being taught in grade school” is completely wrong and easily debunked. The question I always ask and never get a rebuttal to is this: If CRT isn’t being taught in schools, what harm does banning CRT in schools do? I haven’t come across one single person who doesn’t want to teach accurate history, both good and bad, about our country. Teaching accurately about slavery and racism isn’t CRT, and no one claims it is. Those are red herrings designed to distract from actual harmful curriculum.

In what way
