By golly, you’re right. The teachers union has responded. They are mad at Lightfoot because she isn’t crazy enough!
I’m switching sides. I’m with the mayor on this one. Ha!
From the article:
In response, CTU spokeswoman Chris Geovanis released a statement pointing out Lightfoot has opposed recent demands from black activists such as defunding the Chicago Police Department, removing police from Chicago public schools, establishing Juneteenth as a paid public holiday and establishing a civilian oversight board with the power to investigate and fire police officers.
And there you go. She shouts racism to excuse her incompetence. Roughly 20% of eligible Chicago voters elected her when there were better candidates. She should feel lucky to have the job.
> I’m afraid I don’t get it. <
Take a look at my post #42. Then it will all make sense.
The funny thing is that she hates the cops and the cops hate her.
The first episode of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! “What a Night for a Knight” debuted on the CBS network Saturday, September 13, 1969.
Would it have been better if she were unmasked by Fat Albert? Or maybe Valerie, of Josie and the Pussycats?

“zoinks! Lefty v Lefty
This is some great “dog whistle racism:”
In the latest back and forth between two fierce political rivals, Mayor Lori Lightfoot expressed outrage Thursday over a tweet by the Chicago Teachers Union that she called “clearly racist” and an example of a “right-wing” tactic.
There’s no love lost between the mayor and the ultra-progressive CTU, which gave Lightfoot her first major political test with an 11-day teachers strike last fall, just months after her election.
After months of accusations by the CTU that Lightfoot’s school policies are racist, the tables turned as the mayor accused the union of tweeting an offensive meme.
The CTU tweet, posted Wednesday evening, is a play on the ending of many episodes of the mystery cartoon “Scooby-Doo,” when the characters on the show capture and unmask the villain. In this case, the meme reveals the villain is Lightfoot in a Chicago police officer’s uniform. She is tied up with a rope around her torso and surrounded by the show’s characters, who are all white.
It’s a poorly executed meme at best. We have all sorts of doubts that Groot could even pass the psych test and/or the physical requirements to be an actual officer. Plus the amount of hate she harbors for white males would preclude her from wearing the mask of the oppressors. Furthermore, we believe that Spielman and Issa are 100% wrong to assume Scooby-Doo’s race. In these trans-racial times, he (she/xe) has brown fur, which would make him (her/xyr) externally Hispanic despite bearing the name of a Nordic tribe and of Germanic origin.
As for the CTU being “crime fighters” and discovering the nefarious plans of a disguised Groot, the CTU leadership is full of commie morons and the teachers are useful idiots since they keep electing the same assholes to “represent” them. They couldn’t discover who ate all the snacks in the Mystery Machine.
Here’s the offending picture:
By the way, it’s always a safe bet that if you’re the only one hearing the racism dog whistle, that you are the racist and not those trying to just make a joke at your expense.”
Anything I don’t like is racist!
Lori Lightfoot should look at the bright side- all previous Scooby villains were white males. Lori Lightfoot is the first African-American female to be one. She’s the Jackie Robinson and Rosa Parks of Scooby villains.
Well at least she’s being consistent.
But, I’m getting sick of this illogic that anytime white subject does something with black subject, it’s “racist”.
Bunch of Peters yelling wolf all the time.
I see...because our education system is infested with leftist indoctrinating liberals and they aren’t supposed to call you out. But if it was those right wingers!!!
...and...how does she know it’s not “HOMOPHOBIC”?
FREE THE CHILDREN
DEFUND GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS!
Snow is racist
White lines on the highway are racist.
Asphalt is racist.
Ink is racist.
You're racist.....
Now that they are further getting their heads handed to them, maybe these union fools will start to realize they can’t win when it comes to Demographic.
It is pretty slick, actually.
I was expecting some stupid copy-n-paste meme with Lightfoot’s photo inserted. The artwork is well done. You knew immediately who it was depicting, and it matched the original animation brilliantly.
Score one for the Bolshevik racist teachers. I give it an A+ for execution. Of course, they missed Bolshevik school the day they taught you can’t criticize a minority person without the race card being played.
