If it wasn’t so dangerous, the right absolute ignorance about CRT would be hilarious. To think that a high level law school course is being taught in elementary schools is so stupendously ignorant that I have to believe they are trolling. I mean, what’s next trying got Dostoevsky out of kindergarten and calculus out of the first grade. 🤦🏻♂️
@Gambit_1 In order for the people trying to correct them to have any effect they would have to interrupt the message between the senders and the recipients, correct it, and send it on.
Because when the right wing politician/pundit/media sends out the lie, it becomes truth on impact.
It all translates to "Those damn [insert slur] are at it again."
Doesn't matter if we come along after the fact and say "That's not what it means at all."
@CannibalHoliday agree 100%! You are so on point!
@Gambit_1 It's a strategy they've been using a lot in the last 20 years. Take any subject that has a 'progressive' or 'non-conservative' association with it, and describe it badly. Intentionally mangle the meaning and use and, while doing so, associate it with minority groups, immigration, and/or women's and LGBT rights.
What ends up happening is people on the left waste all their time trying to correct the meaning, when the targets just hear "blah blah white genocide blah blah america first".
