And that is populism in a nutshell. Same thing the right is doing with their "Deep State" nonsense. This is the left's version of the "Deep State Uniparty."


Indeed. MAGA just mimicked other populist movements. Its all dishonesty to stir emotion.

Blaming everyone else for your failures is no way to learn.

DEI commodifies diversity, equity and inclusion through paid trainings run by highly paid consultants, etc. It’s all just a farce and a money grab.



I can see that POV. My problem with all of this is when government gets into supporting (and thus promoting) this (see: the recent OMG video of the DEI guy from the Pentagon who wants to send out the National Guard to forcibly confiscate all firearms).

Yet it is essential to populism, whether on the left or the right.

Which is why we're doomed now that the right is joining the left in stampeding over that cliff.

I think CRT is evil, and I think it's arguably racist, but I think it's a good thing for this board to have good answers on, hence the devil's advocate routine.


My IRL answer always works with lefties:
Me: 'What is racism?'
Them: 'Believing one race is superior to another.'
Me: 'Superior at what?'
Them: 'Everything.'
Me: 'So, since I think blacks are better at basketball then I can't be racist.'
Them: 'OK, superior at MOST stuff!'
Me: 'The total of 'stuff' is millions of things. So, if I believe whites are better at 51% of stuff and blacks are superior at 49% of stuff then that's the line for being a racist? Really?
Them: 'I don't wanta talk about it anymore.'
