Florida Giving CRT the Hard Goodbye

[Bud_Spencer]

Awfully powerless for a dictatorship.

Say what???

It has the power to overrule Congrss, the President, the Courts, state and local governments as well as any decision by a private body that it deems "racist."

It's a dictatorship.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Same thing.

What nonsense. But you are right: This is the only thing the Critters have, and it's the thinnest of gruel.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

And this is bullshit.

Not sure what you're saying is bullshit. Intersectionality is definitely part of CRT, in fact the two concepts were named by the same person: Kimberle' Crenshaw, one of the high priestsesse of both.

That intersectionality is itself bullshit is, however, true.

 

[bellisarius]

What is the point of the CRT bullshit?

A quota system for ALL cross sections of the economy? Government mandated wages? Some sort of reparations scheme?

Trust me, there is an end game to this madness, just a matter of uncovering it and letting the Sun shine on it. Only shining the light on it will determine whether it will thrive or be treated with "Weed-B-Gone." So far it doesn't seem to tolerate Sunlight very well.

Equity. More importantly, the revolution and upwards flow of power into the hands of those who will run this "equitable" society with an iron fist. Because that's the only way to bring about the society they imagine.

The core premise of intersectionality.....and CRT.

Yup.....we are on the same track here.

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Yup.....we are on the same track here.

And the fact that intersectionality is part of the equation means this shit doesn't stop at race.

What I want to know is that if racial equity is the goal, what evidene do the Critters have that this is, indeed, the state of affairs that would arise from a racism-free world? Furthermore, what accounts for the enormous disparities in wealth among, say, African-Americans or Asians? And wouldn't those factors that cause intra-racial disparities also possibly cause inter-racial disparities?

Really? There's going to be a shitload of minorities that aren't going to like the results if that's the end game. The Han still run China and those that don't toe the line get eliminated by one means or another.

Yes. Equity is the brass ring. Diversity and Inclusion are handmaidens to that goal and may already be on the way out, rhetorically, because too many other identities are getting in on the racket and diluting the message of the Race Crits (one of the wars going on under the surface is between the BIPOCs and the IBPOCs...the Indigenous are demanding top billing because they were here first. I am NOT making this up).

Thewhole enterprise rests on a set of assumptions that are, frankly, laughable if you really think about them. It's a house of cards, but they're hoping to upend society before people realize they've been had.

Well, the first thing that happens is the 'layabouts' in the cities are given 'gainful' employment at whatever wage the government decides they're worth, and they aren't going to be worth as much as they think they are. And if they don't like their job and cause a ruckus, off to the re-education camp. And if that doesn't work they'll be 'disappeared.'

That's how it works in those "Utopian" societies, that's how it's always worked.

The proof is in the American vanilla pudding.

And the historical evidence.

There's a poster on this board (The Trouvere) that captures the essense of the argument for accepting CRT as legitimate.

That ^ poster posits that there is a scientific / genetic reason for average BIPOC's or IBPOC's current lack of success / equity in ALL major societal outcomes, rather than generationally entrenched racial disenfranchisement.

As long as that ^ talking point exist and proliferates among Deplorables, CRT will not only have legitimacy, but will actually be minimizing the effects of racism in America.

America finally ACKNOWLEDGING it has a racist problem is the first step towards ADDRESSING that problem.

Not even you can pretend that extrapolating the views of a single poster (who, IIRC, is quite the progressive on non-racial matters...hardly a "Deplorable") into the worldview of a society of 330 million people. Moreover, CRT doesn't even attempt to single out racist acts or laws, it simply declares those with disparate impact on blacks as "racist" when no such intent was or is present.

Are the words "racist" and "racism" mentioned in regards to white people in CRT pamphlets? (there are no textbooks). I mean besides saying that an individual is racist.

Yes. Society itself is assumed to be racist and racism is assumed to be prevalent in all interactions in American society. Since white people are assumed to be the only group with institutional and societal power, they are either "anti-racist" (meaning they actively see racism as CR Theorists do and seek to dismantle society's institutions) or they are racist, benefitting either actively or passively from a racist society. There is no middle ground, i.e. being colorblind.

Pud doesn't realize that they are referred to as "Deplorables" BECAUSE they are racists, and because they blame all their (and America's) problems on "the other", while never entertaining the possibility that they and their ancestors might bear the lion's share of responsibility for much of what's wrong with American society.

SAD!!!

Typical Dud.

"Yes!" and then proceed to use words like "assume" and "society," I asked a specific fucking question. You have been duped, Dud.

They're called "Deplorables" because Hillary wanted to pander to her base and let them know that their status anxiety would be assauaged under her administration, that they would all get to look down on Trump voters and sneer. Nothing more than that.

You wanted to know what CRT is, I just told you. Don't blame me for their assumptions.

Comprehension is your friend. Well, not yours so much. I didn't ask what CRT is, liar. I asked a specific fucking question that you can't answer because either there's no mention of racism in CRT pamphlets or you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Hint: It's both.

I think it's prety obvious I know what I'm talking about. I answered your question concisely and accurately. If you can find some valid source that says differently. we'd all love to take a look at it. Until then, at least try not to make such a spittle-flecked fool of yourself, will you?

You're an indignant stupid little person.

Pud is wrong.......again.

Hillary was pretty specific about the kind of subhuman scum she classified as "Deplorable".

"Racist" was the first type of human scum she identified as qualifying for "Deplorable" status.
