The Overdue Critical Race Theory Thread

[Malasang88]

@Mick

Can you point to anywhere you stood up for the freedoms of speech when people were being kicked off social media, or did you default to “they are private companies and can do hat they want”?

I defended the daily wire’s right to use Facebook and profit off of aggregating stories that focus on culture war issues. I can criticize and defend their right to do whatever they want at the same time. Criticism is not the same as cancelling.

The Daily Wire

Their criticism is accurate. They can do whatever they want. I think it’s fair for people to understand their business model. Pointing out a criticism is not the same as trying to cancel. I see this reaction over and over whenever the criticism is directed at a conservative news source, politician, influencer etc. If you want to both sides to have a voice, then being open to criticism is part of that.

@Mick

I don’t create the caricature, just hold the mirror. Don’t like what you see? Perhaps take a moment to reflect on that

You are continually unaware of your own extreme partisanship and attempt to position everything as left vs. right. Liberal elites vs the people, etc. Pot and kettle…

@Mick

As for if the material being discussed is CRT or not, we have seen this talking silly point trotted out by those trying to defend it, you can change the name, call it something else, pretend it’s just history but if the substance is the same, CRT as an umbrella description works just fine. We all know what we are talking about, well most of us, some seem to get confused over simple terms like MSM. 'What is that, I can’t understand", so, silly discussions I won’t be having.

A topic on the history of the civil rights movement is not CRT no matter how you spin it.

Regarding MSM:
I’d tell you I’m not confused about the term MSM. I understand exactly what you mean by it, and still think it’s a made up bullshit term people have used to buffer their own political identity. Blaming everything on media is a cop out. The barriers of entry to media and the amount of exposure any individual can get with a cellphone make this distinction pretty meaninglessness and not exclusive of left or right.
