    A road mark to it is their attitude about "critical race theory". It's one thing to have skepticism about it. They are apoplectic.

    CRT is Commie bullshit designed to divide Americans by race. MLK Jr. would never go for that garbage. He was an American who fought and ultimately died for the opposite of CRT.

    MLK Jr.s dream lived from the late 60s until Obama. King's dream flourished for 4 decades, but I suppose all good things come to an end, and now there's this CRT bullshit.

    CRT is not taught in public schools.

    I should add this note to the above: Martin Luther King was definitely on the Left, and quite consciously so.
    [See here: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics...eftist/279148/ ]

    Had he lived, he would probably be a supporter of the DSA.

    Some Republicans try to pretend otherwise, but anyone who cares to investigate will see that he was a socialist in all but name.
    This does not undermine or take away in any sense the historic role this brave man played in extending the rule of law to Southern Blacks.

    (In fact, this was true of the whole Southern civil rights movement... at least, of the whites who were involved. I took part in a voter registration
    project in Fayette County, Tennessee -- Google "Tent City" -- and of the fifty or so whites involved, there was not a single conservative. We were all liberals or
    further Left. Conservatives are ... conservative. It's not in their DNA to go out on the streets, unless they're really pushed. Which they have been, as many
    of them see it, recently.)

    But Northern Republicans
    were for Civil Rights, generally -- Barry Goldwater integrated the National Guard in Arizona before the military was generally integrated.

    I do remember Dr. King when he's brought up. Of course I do.

    There have been far too many seriously accomplished people over history to have a holiday commemorating each one of them,
    and thus we don't need one to commemorate any of them, respected though they may remain.

    We have history books and journal/media archives to remember them. That's what matters.

    There are no tenets in CRT. CRT is taught in law colleges.

    Those links do not reference professors mainly. They reference teachers in public schools.

    Short answer: It's racist in the way it divides students by race. It also fosters animosity between the races.

    TBH, I think all the brave Russians ran while they had the chance and only the chickenshit Russians are left behind. Kinda like all the pioneers, explorers and soldiers left the old country for the New World over the past few centuries.

    Notice a lot of them are still trying to leave their Euro shitholes for America.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.
