Critical Race Theory

Critical race theory is a profoundly malevolent ideology that enhances the revolutionary mentality of communism with the vicious racism of Nazism. It is a postmodern update of Marxism that replaces class with race, because class warfare never took hold in the USA. Whites serve the role of the hated bourgeoisie. They must be forcefully dispossessed, marginalized, and eventually eradicated, as they are the only thing holding the human race back from utopia.

With Biden’s handlers in power, critical race theory is the official ideology of the federal government. It is no accident that Biden rescinded Trump’s ban on critical race theory brainwashing in the federal government on his first day in office.

For Democrats, critical race theory is not just a kooky point of view; it is a weapon for destroying the American institutions that prevent them from seizing total power.

Even now, most Democrats are white themselves. The appeal of an ideology based on hatred of whites would appear to be limited — but not for those who are only cynically exploiting it, like Biden et al.

Leading expert Christopher F. Rufo explains what they want to inflict under cover of harmless-sounding terms like “equity” and “antiracism”:

In the name of equity, UCLA law professor and critical race theorist Cheryl Harris has proposed suspending private property rights, seizing land and wealth, and redistributing them along racial lines. Critical race guru Ibram X. Kendi, who directs the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University, has proposed the creation of a federal Department of Antiracism. This department would be independent of (i.e., unaccountable to) the elected branches of government, and would have the power to nullify, veto, or abolish any law at any level of government and curtail the speech of political leaders and others deemed insufficiently “antiracist.”

To get an idea of how powerful these maniacs are already, consider that Jack Dorsey’s Twitter played a major role in getting Biden elected by censoring not only Trump while he was the president but also the bombshell revelations on Hunter Biden’s laptop. Dorsey gave Kendi $10 million.

One practical result of the creation of such a department would be the overthrow of capitalism, since, according to Kendi, “In order to truly be antiracist, you also have to truly be anti-capitalist.” In other words, identity is the means; Marxism is the end.

The subversion of our system by critical race theory did not start with the Biden’s Handlers Administration. Both the government and education are rotted through with this cancer. As Rufo reported last year,

The FBI was holding workshops on intersectionality theory. The Department of Homeland Security was telling white employees that they were committing “microinequities” and had been “socialized into oppressor roles.” The Treasury Department held a training session telling staff members that “virtually all white people contribute to racism” and that they must convert “everyone in the federal government” to the ideology of “antiracism.” And the Sandia National Laboratories, which designs America’s nuclear arsenal, sent white male executives to a three-day reeducation camp, where they were told that “white male culture” was analogous to the “KKK,” “white supremacists,” and “mass killings.” The executives were then forced to renounce their “white male privilege” and to write letters of apology to fictitious women and people of color.

This year, Rufo turned his attention to education:

In Cupertino, California, an elementary school forced first-graders to deconstruct their racial and sexual identities and rank themselves according to their “power and privilege.” In Springfield, Missouri, a middle school forced teachers to locate themselves on an “oppression matrix,” based on the idea that straight, white, English-speaking, Christian males are members of the oppressor class and must atone for their privilege and “covert white supremacy.” In Philadelphia, an elementary school forced fifth-graders to celebrate “Black communism” and simulate a Black Power rally to free 1960s radical Angela Davis from prison, where she had once been held on charges of murder. And in Seattle, the school district told white teachers that they are guilty of “spirit murder” against black children and must “bankrupt [their] privilege in acknowledgement of [their] thieved inheritance.”

Rufo has amassed a database of over 1,000 of these stories.

If we do nothing, progressives will use brainwashing and intimidation to remake American society in accordance with critical race theory and its objectives. The show trial of Derek Chauvin and public acceptance of a verdict based on Black Lives Matter intimidation demonstrates how far they have already come.

Critical race theorists must be confronted with and forced to speak to the facts. Do they support public schools separating first-graders into groups of “oppressors” and “oppressed”? Do they support mandatory curricula teaching that “all white people play a part in perpetuating systemic racism”? Do they support public schools instructing white parents to become “white traitors” and advocate for “white abolition”? Do they want those who work in government to be required to undergo this kind of reeducation? How about managers and workers in corporate America? How about the men and women in our military? How about every one of us?

The answer to all these questions is emphatically yes.

They will get their way, so long as not enough people call them out on time on what they are doing to our country. Anyone who resists them risks cancelation, but we would not have freedom for leftists to take away if our forefathers had not risked worse.

Why the Word “Equity” Should Terrify

If there is a word even scarier than “disinformation” when wielded by liberals, it is “equity.” It gets heavy use by apparatchiks in the Biden Administration. Ben Shapiro explains why it is frightening:

Equity, in the common political parlance, means that each group should receive the same outcome as every other group.

The “chief expositor” of racial equity is Ibram X. Kendi, whom we encountered earlier when he was paid $333/minute by a public school to fill children’s heads with toxic bile, when he denounced Amy Coney Barrett for committing “colonialism” by adopting Haitian children, and when leftist oligarch Jack Dorsey gifted him $10 million to promote racist — i.e., “antiracist” — ideology.

Kendi explains in his massive bestseller, “How to Be an Antiracist”: “A racist policy is any measure that produces or sustains racial inequity between racial groups. An antiracist policy is any measure that produces or sustains racial equity between racial groups.” And, says Kendi, “There is no such thing as a nonracist or race-neutral policy.” All policies either forward equity or oppose it. Any policy not explicitly designed to rectify unequal outcome is therefore racist.

“Antiracism” is a truly totalitarian ideology. Nothing is permitted that is not designed to benefit blacks.

Note that individual liberty is a policy that sustains racial inequity. Therefore, it is racist and must be abolished.

This philosophy is both idiotic and perverse. It’s idiotic because all human groupings — literally all of them — will result in differential outcomes. Draw a line down the middle of any room in random fashion and the result will be unequal income distribution, criminal records, educational histories. When culture takes a hand, disparities can be more deeply rooted than random chance.

On the contrary, as a tool to inflict authoritarianism, antiracism is not idiotic at all. It provides a permanent pretext to exert absolute control over every aspect of society.

America was rooted in equality and freedom. Equity requires freedom to be curbed. It’s therefore a national tragedy to watch equality of rights abandoned in favor of equity. If freedom is discarded to achieve equality of outcome, we no longer live in an America defined by the Declaration of Independence.

We live in an America defined by tribalism and leveling — and, in short order, tyranny.

That is the point of antiracism (a.k.a. critical race theory, cultural Marxism, political correctness) and of the Democratic Party.

Former Twitter CEO Endorses Firing Squad for Capitalists

Everyone knows that Big Tech is left-wing. What needs to sink in is just how left-wing. Dick Costolo offers an indication by calling for capitalists to be “lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution.”

Costolo was Twitter CEO from 2010 to 2015. Time has listed him among “the most influential minds in tech.” Fox Business reports on his current Twitter activities:

“Me-first capitalists who think you can separate society from business are going to be the first people lined up against the wall and shot in the revolution,” he wrote. “I’ll happily provide video commentary.”

Costolo was responding to a tweet in a thread about whether tech companies and business leaders should involve themselves in social justice issues.

“Social justice” means turning all dials all the way left.

Twitter has censored the President of the United States repeatedly (e.g., here, here, here), but so far Costolo’s call for violence is still up, days after it was issued:

Lest anyone dismiss this as hyperbole, recall that for months the USA has been under siege by violent rioters who inflict terror in the name of a Marxist organization, Black Lives Matter. It is standard procedure for Marxists to execute massive numbers of people when they take power. Over 100 million people were killed by their own communist governments during the 20th century, only some of them by starvation.

Tech giants ranging from Twitter to Apple, Amazon and Facebook have released statements and implemented policies that aim to address racial injustice on a corporate level.

To address the contrived issue of “racial injustice” in this context means to promote the ideology of Black Lives Matter. This is accomplished through gargantuan donations, by providing a platform for Costolo’s fellow malevolent fanatics, and by silencing dissent.

Current CEO Jack Dorsey gave an astonishing $10 million to promote the wicked activities of extravagantly paid racial arsonist Ibram X. Kendi, confirming that current Twitter leadership is on the same page as Costolo.

Healthline Warns of Pregnancy From Lesbian Sex

Leftists have subordinated the healthcare sector to moonbattery. This entails discarding objective reality in favor of their depraved ideology. For example, Healthline warns of the dangers of pregnancy resulting from lesbian sex:

On August 1, medical information and lifestyle site Healthline updated a guidance article titled “How Do Lesbians Have Sex? 28 Things to Know Before Your First Time.”

Liberals cannot define the word “woman,” so it should come as no surprise that they don’t know what “lesbian” means either.

“‘Lesbian sex’ isn’t limited to cisgender couples. It also includes other people who have vaginas, people with penises, and people with intersex genitalia,” the article states, continuing: “So, whatever counts as ‘lesbian sex’ is really up to whoever is doing it.” The guidance also suggests both partners involved in the “lesbian sex” may have a penis, and also advises on the best positions for anal sex.

In short, the word lesbian no longer has any meaning. This is true of any word liberals get their hands on, “racism” being the most obvious example.

Here’s why abortion is so important even to lesbians:

“It’s possible to get pregnant if one partner has a penis and another has a vagina,” it says, continuing: “often people assume that lesbians can’t get pregnant, or that lesbian sex can’t result in pregnancy. That’s a myth based on the assumption that both women are cisgender … If one partner is transgender and has a penis and the other is cisgender and has a vagina, they can have penis-in-vagina sex.”

Not all lesbians are on board with being redefined out of existence along with women in general on behalf of the trans agenda:

Canadian lesbian activist Eva Kurilova rejected the suggestions as being “outright harmful” to same-sex attracted women.

Complains Kurilova,

“This kind of messaging makes it harder for lesbians to maintain sexual boundaries and refuse the advances of males who ‘identify’ as lesbians.”

This is because declining to have sex with them would be transphobic and therefore thoughtcrime.

Transsexuals exploit their position at the top of the Cultural Marxist Totem Pole of Oppressedness to lord it over everybody — even other groups that have achieved power by identifying as sexually deranged. This has even gotten physical:

On August 7, a lesbian activist in Germany filed a police report after being assaulted by trans activists at the Dyke March Hamburg for holding a sign which defined lesbian as a “female homosexual.”

No wonder the LGBT coalition is starting to crack up, with “LGB drop the T” trending on Twitter. The broader Cultural Marxist alliance will follow. With luck, it will collapse in on itself in a frenzy of bickering over who is more oppressed before it is able to achieve its purpose of destroying civilization.
