“Federal Judge tells Ron DeSantis to sit down and STFU”

It's a safe word that can be used to exhibit one's racist, misogynist, homophobic, or otherwise bigoted behavior and speech w/o consequences. Because that's what the Reichwing hates the most -- consequences and responsibility.

'Woke Racism': John McWhorter argues against what he calls a religion of anti-racism

The professor John McWhorter has problems with the way Americans are talking about race and racism.

McWhorter is a Black liberal. But he argues that the cultural left, along with major institutions and companies, have gone too far in embracing "anti-racist" ideas.

Much of it relates to the way two prominent writers about race have influenced public opinion about racism. Ibram X. Kendi's How to Be an Antiracist and Robin DiAngelo's White Fragility have both landed on bestseller lists since last summer, after widespread protests erupted over George Floyd's killing.

Both Kendi and DiAngelo have appeared on NPR and NPR has published articles that promote anti-racism.

McWhorter argues that certain strains of anti-racism and its adherents have effectively created a religion, and a zealous one, that stifles nuance and debate. His new book is called Woke Racism: How a New Religion Has Betrayed Black America.

There are people "whose devotion is less to changing lives for people who need help than showing that they understand that racism and especially systemic racism exists," McWhorter tells Morning Edition.

"The idea is that you are to be fired" if you disagree or violate anti-racism's norms, in McWhorter's telling. "You are to be dismissed from polite society. You are to be sanctioned. You can't be among us. You're dirty."

McWhorter points to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art's chief curator, who resigned under pressure after an uproar involving his use of the words "reverse discrimination." In another case, he points to white food writer Alison Roman, who was suspended from her New York Times column after criticizing celebrities Chrissy Teigen, who is Asian American, and Marie Kondo, who is Asian.

Sure.

I'm heading out now. I just want to let you know because I know your sorry fucking life is so pitiful that you'll be in front of the computer all night instead of enjoying time with friends.

You know, because you don't have any.

Later, Rainman!

“Republicans talk a big game about free speech and the First Amendment. But when it comes down to it, they actually believe people should only be free to discuss topics they’ve approved. No elected official better epitomizes this hypocrisy than Florida governor Ron DeSantis who signed into law a bill—eye-rollingly named “Stop WOKE Act”—that restricts conversations about race in schools and businesses. And on Thursday, a federal judge called him on his bullshit.”

“In a 138-page order, chief US district judge Mark Walker blocked state officials from enforcing a central piece of the Stop WOKE Act, which he dubbed “positively dystopian” and says violates the First Amendment. Citing George Orwell’s 1984, Walker wrote that DeSantis and company seem to believe that “the State has unfettered authority to muzzle its professors in the name of ‘freedom, which is quite obviously not freedom at all.”

“The law had created absurd new protections for students and workers that would allow them to sue if they believe a classroom lesson or workplace training course caused them to “feel guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress.”

Amazing how many times others have to educate a MAGA on what the word freedom actually means

Disagreed. Someone should turn you into NCIS. I have no doubt you were dirty and are involved in shady shit. How much equipment in your garage is marked "Property of the U.S. Navy"? Tools? Parts?

I'm certain they can run your picture through the database and come over for a visit, Steve. :thup:

I have no doubt you are a catcher in gay porno movies. Your stretched penile length of less than 2.5 standard deviations below the mean for your age qualifies you for the microphallus title. Why don't you make your self a certificate for having the smallest penis on this site.

Your fantasies are very odd, "doc". Have you always had them, or did they start after you started taking massive doses of HCQ and Ivermectin? Are they guilt related?
