A teacher in Illinois is defending critical race theory as a valuable tool for addressing racism.

A TikTok video showed teacher Caleb Wells, whose username is "tiktoksmellyboi" and "emo teacher," responding to a question about why it was racist to oppose critical race theory in the classroom.

"When you don't want to teach about how these systems were designed to oppress people, you're taking the side of the oppressor and being racist," said Wells in a video posted last month that recently gained a lot of attention on Twitter.

He argued that critical race theory helped students learn about purportedly oppressive systems like the prison-industrial complex.

"Things like mass incarceration, the prison-industrial system, the military-industrial system. All of those are used to oppress people groups. By teaching this in the classroom, we can show our kids what systems need to be challenged and thought about differently."

"Racism isn't going to be fixed by me going down to a kid right here," he added, approaching a desk, "and saying, ‘hey buddy,’ you really need to be nicer to that kid over there even though they look a little bit different than you. We can dismantle racism by dismantling systems of oppression, not by being nice to people."

Wells is an eighth grade English teacher in Illinois, according to his profile.

His Twitter account appeared to be @calebsmells, which has a bio that reads: "BLACK LIVES MATTER (he/him)." It also links to the Wikipedia page for "emo," a term used to describe certain music or teenager.

First off, everything he says is nonsensical.

Secondly, you can see what he looks like and hear him explain his views in this tik tok video

tik tok

If any of these people are capable of feeling shame, they're going to be totally burdened by this for the rest of their lives.

He looks and speaks like one of those dime a dozen young, self-styled “intellectuals” that in reality don’t know their own arse from a hole in the ground.

That’s a pretty good representation of what passes for an “educator” nowadays.

Ridiculous.

That's strange...because that's pretty much exactly what solved most of it my entire time on earth. All 51 years of it.

His solution is not to treat everyone equally and nicely, but to split people into groups by oppressor and oppressed and then tear everyone apart.

I think I'll take MLK's version, thanks.

Did he end his rant with the words, “Resistance is futile!”

I swear these people are like the Borg.

I guess if you call each and everything in the galaxy that doesn't bend to your whining and bitching as ' racist ', then yes, I'm racist.




Even though I'm not racist.

Anybody want to bet me some greenbacks he teaches in a predominantly middle/upper class area comprised of predominantly white kids? We all know he ain't working in Detroit.

Like all Liberals he has to automatically drop overly generalized statement to anyone who opposes his beliefs. "If you oppose CRT you're racist". Or it could be we oppose certain aspects of it. Like the age it starts, teaching kids who had nothing to do with it to hate themselves, or how it leaves out that blacks are th worst crabs in a bucket in the history of the world. But yeah, just leak your vaginal blood and teach kids to use the term racist to get their way like the baby back emo bitch you are.

Holy shite, this country is fricked. We should focus more on teaching people to judge others based off their character not race.

Actually, this is exactly how to do it. Starts at the family level

I am absolutely infuriated that the taxpayer is funding this shite, the idiot teacher and his propaganda. The nerve these morons have to tell us that we should just pay for it and shut up is incredible. Complaining to school boards isn’t near enough. We should march in and drag these weasels out of the schools.

How does it address anything?

Even if they tear the constitution down and burn it.. even if they install a legit communist government from the ground up.. white people would still be demonized. Because according to their religion, white people are inherently oppressive. So CRT is just an eternal crucifixion of white people.

No.. not just white people. Black people are equally affected by CRT. Black people are forced into societal boxes and judged strictly by racist stereotypes. They are viewed as inherently lesser and in need of society coming together to teach them. It's extremely infuriating to see that shite. Any time a white person says shite about CRT.. they are labeled as even bigger racists. Ant time a black person says shite about CRT.. they are labeled as uncle Toms.
