Don't Let Leftists Gaslight You on Critical Race Theory
American Thinker.com ^ | November 13, 2021 | Christopher Paslay

Chauncey Devega, a race essentialist and staff writer for Salon, insists that Critical Race Theory is a fairytale. In his recent article, "'Critical race theory' is a fairytale — but America's monsters are real," Devega insists that CRT is a lie, a damn lie, and suggests everyday white folks are "doing the work of racism and white supremacy" by "[s]upporting Republican fascists who tell evil fairytales about 'Critical Race Theory.'"

Devega makes his case by bloviating for ten full paragraphs about an old Southern boogieman called the "Goat Man," a legendary monster that terrorized black communities in North Carolina by gobbling up black American men and boys. He'd heard this tale as a child from his grandmother, which turned out to be a metaphor for Jim Crow and white supremacy.

Devega wants the reader to know that the Goat Man is not real, but that "real evil takes the form of flesh-and-blood human beings, not ghosts or demons or spectral fiends." Trump and his supporters are the real monsters, Devega insists, along with "Republican fascists who tell evil fairytales about 'critical race theory.'"

He writes:

Their goal is to reclaim uncontested white power and white privilege over every significant aspect of American society. Their evil fairytales about "critical race theory" or "parental control" are but a means to that end.

At no point does Devega dare to take a real look at the issues at the heart of the pushback against CRT — at what is happening in school board meetings across the United States. He couldn't care less about the growing concerns of parents, teachers, and administrators in K–12 schools, or the rest of American society at large. CRT is a "fairytale" because arrogant race essentialists like Devega say it is.

I HAVE NOT THOUGHT ABOUT RACE FOR YEARS.

I DO NOT INTEND TO START THINKING ABOUT IT NOW.

Try another plan Lefties, you Losers.

Yes, and Antifa is a fairytale, too - which is why the Left must send Kyle Rittenhouse to prison for killing Antifa soldiers.

From one way of looking at it, CRT is not taught to the kids. It is taught to the TEACHERS, and then its philosophy infects and contaminates the curriculum and lesson plans.

What is CRT? Essentially it teaches that racism is inherent in the system, and that systemic racism is why blacks do not succeed, and that the only solution is to tear it all down and replace it with socialism.

It is the logical result of the logic that gave us Affirmative Action. It is necessary for people to believe this as an explanation for why affirmative action has not worked after close to 60 years.

Critcal race theory being a ‘fairytale’ or variants is a talking point for the leftists shoveling this merde. The talking point goes around and depending on the importance of the issue, and this one is very important, is relentlessly repeated.

Chauncey Devega, a race essentialist and staff writer for Salon, insists that Critical Race Theory is a fairytale>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

A tactic right out of Alinsky's rules for radicals/ The use of race to gin up class warfare in addition to class struggle is a path these Marxists are dedicated to , and when they get hauled up short by parents at school board meetings, they call the parents criminals and sick the FBI , our uncloaked Gestapo that is OUR only police function that TRULY needs to be defunded, declaring parents the enemy via AG Garland ( A lying wimp in Congress).

Oh no, there is no such thing as CRT, they say, its all imaginary. The effers have watched too much Star Wars and think they can play a jedi mind trick on America, in order to continue to indoctrinate our children into Marxist cannon fodder so they will committ violence in the streets against peace loving patriots?

Chauncey Devega , Barrack Obama, Reverand Ralph Wright, all have for decades been preaching Black Nationalism/Socialism, preaching the superiority of the Black Race in the same way done for years by Louis Farakhan, and that great wag race mongering corportae extortionist, "Reverend" Aluwishias Sharpton.

Now they have welcomed BLM and ANTIFA into the mainstream of their twisted leftist woke cancel culture society to generate their cannon fodder for the "Revlooshun" , open borders, defund police, rampant inflation....all designed to destabilize America, destroy the COnstitution, and the 2nd amendment ( only lefty Marxists will be allowed to own guns legally), using the pandemic to DESTROY freedom of travel and freedom of Assembly, fire all Republicans from ther jobs using vax mandates to do so, while keeping on radicals in employment INCLUDING THE MILITARY, while nations like Sweden maintain freedom, acquire natural immunity and remain free, as Patriot America weeps?

Marxist Governors Murphy of New Jersey, CUOMO of New York and Whitmer of Michigan executed over 40 thousand elderly people by transferring INFECTED Covid cases into thier Eldercare homes, and these GENOCIDAL MANIACS skate? WTF?

ENOUGH!

Its time to stop the Chauncey Devegas , and ALL the would be Marxist Jedi Mind Tricksters of America. We have a vice president who is mimicking a French accent while touring France, and a senile asshat for president whose every move is groomed by shadow puppeteers Susan Rice and Barrack Obama, both who usurped the election to occuppy the office. .....and we pretend differently? WTF ?

ZERO TOLERANCE~!

Let's say liberal children were coming home and saying, "Mommy Mommy - are we going to hell because we haven't been baptized? Did Grandma go to hell because she didn't go to Church?" ...

Would liberal parents like it if we said 'There's no Bible in the School' and then we asked the FBI to investigate liberal parents as possible 'domestic terrorists'?

The biggest problem with liberals is they are incapable of empathy.

Never mind not working; “affirmative action” has done a lot of damage to the intended beneficiaries by forcing others to treat sub-par performance as “normal” - for those particular groups. It has not lifted them to the level of other Americans; it has reduced them to less-educated, less-skilled people dependent on government interference to force anyone to hire (and retain) them. They have little to no role in the private sector.

Actual race theory

Black Americans were enslaved because they were unequal, inferior, to those black African people who enslaved them
