Critical Race Theory - Page 192 - Politics and Society -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Not really. Share of democrats calling themselves liberal has almost doubled over the last 20 years and a record number of voters chose democratic candidates in 2018 and 2020, not just vs Trump but in the house. And the republican white grievance strategy is costing them college educated whites which has been a plus demo for them for 40+ years.

The debate has caused a partisan split on the issue of critical race theory, with 86% of Democrats expressing a favorable view of the theory, compared to 6% of Republicans. The poll revealed that independents were more likely to side with the GOP, with 20% expressing a favorable view of critical race theory, compared to 76% with an unfavorable view.

You don't have Trump to beat up on anymore.

But Republicans are playing things the exact opposite way of trying to appeal to independents. Biden and congressional dems are not talking about critical race theory. Prominent republicans are pushing the big lie. Freaking Brian Kemp has to worry about a primary challenge from the right. That's why generic ballot polling right now is D+6 when normally with full dem control of government republicans would be up by that much.

He’s angry, he’s gon’ cut this country down to size, he’s gon’ make it pay for all its multicultural mistakes that it has made, its mistreatment of minorities. I know exactly what’s going on.”

And yes, that was a little black dialect Rush threw in there, just to be clear

Which politician is Lindsey attacking? This is about attacking an ideology, an ideology that has receipts, and lots of them.

How does that help Republicans? They threw a hissy fit over Kaepernick. Trump was very much anti-free speech, more than any POTUS in a 100 years and the Republican standard view followed him in that direction.

I'm not arguing against anyone at the moment. But, if you could, check their website out and see if you buy into the stuff cause I'm not woke enough, and am actually a little skeptical of that particular Twitter account and webpage. I'm not sure they're authentic.

He's obviously not attacking an ideology because he's specifically mentioning a person there, Crenshaw, and taking what would be pretty neutral language about a reckoning and imputing it with violent intent. Limbaugh did the same thing with Obama and it's a petty standard trope to hype up white identity by casting any kind of black achievement or black disagreement about the status quo as a kind of the mask slipping that their true desire is revenge on the white man.

He's made similar remarks about Robin DeAngelo, and many other critical race theorists.

Remember these people are racist, if the term hasn't been redefined away from racial discrimination.
