.25% to .75% isn't .5%?

The base of the graph is 0%, first grey line is 0.25%, the middle grey line is 0.5%, the third grey line is 0.75% and the top of the graph is 1%.

Fox News goes from about 0.85% to about 0.1% I did it 1% to 0.1% to make the math easy, but if you wanted to chop off a few hundred segments that's fine. It's still a decline of thousands of weekly segments and proportionally about 90%.

Put another way, Fox went from mentioning it multiple times every hour to essentially never mentioning it.

Just like the caravans a few years ago. It's so transparent I have no idea how people keep falling for this.

What bothers me is not that the Republicans pretend to care about this stuff. I get it - it works!

My problem is that the news media consistently pretends to believe them and treats it as if it's something other than cynical culture war efforts to be dropped and picked up whenever convenient.

Exactly. It’s like the normal media sees right wing media making stuff up and says, here guys let us give you a larger platform so more people can hear your bull shit.

I am not reading all these posts, but just to respond what I have found out... If you are white, you are an oppressor. If you are not white, you are oppressed.

So by this definition, I am oppressing 1/2 my family (nieces and nephews) as they are mixed race. This is so stupid. And one of them is an account that works for the most prestigious accounting firm in the US, and the other has 7 degrees, including 2 doctorate's. But I am oppressing them, because I am white.

The stupidest theory I have ever seen. And Martin Luther king will roll in his grave if he ever sees this.
Would you be so bold as to share what source you learned this from?

Anything can be stupid when you throw away any resemblance of facts or truth and just make up what you think it is.

The actual definition of CRT is the study of history using the context that race is a social construct with no scientific basis. Apparently the thought of teaching kids that race doesn't exist bothers a lot of folks so much that they have to make up lies about it.

Apparently there's Koch money behind the anti-CRT campaign. Koch industries cash funds some of the organisations involved in it. Surprise surprise.

The right has always worked hard to try and rewrite history. I think conservatives feel a lot of shame, hence their constant efforts to conceal their past.

Yes, this is exactly it. Grandma doesn't want her grandkids to learn in school that she opposed the Civil Rights Movement.

Funny, I don't think it's shame, I think it's more concern that if people grow up understanding how things actually happened, there might be actual change.

Well I was trying to be charitable towards them!

But, Lord, seems that Koch-cash is _everywhere_.

CRT is NOT taught in any public grade, intermediate, junior or high school.

It is not Black History.

I was completely wrong in my earlier posts because so many well-intentioned Black people kept claiming it represented Black History. And like a misinformed horse's ass, I simply swallowed it.

Because I went to school during the Roosevelt administration, Teddy, not FDR, I never encountered even Black History in school. So, I learned most of it from publications I myself purchased and of course, from intelligent folks who posted tons of it on FB.

Always on the hunt for good conversation from intelligent individuals, I prefer this forum where the news is always fresh, the comments lively and the counsel sage. I posted on a few social media, but under different names.

So, to those I offended with my earlier comments about CRT: I humbly apologize. I had offered a longer mea culpa on FB.

Oh yes. Emotional learning and mental health programs are terrible.

Let's just repress them so that we turn kids into school shooters. And ignore that. Do lock down drills. Cause more anxiety. Never fix the root issue and keep burying it. Oh and by the way if you even think about having an impure though about someone that has the same genitalia as you...just go ahead and kill yourself now. Here's a gun. Those are easy to get and fix problems.

Fuck this country.
I was brainwashed into understanding what emotional intelligence was at a manager's meeting. Help me!

Actually the worse is CNN in my humble opinion. It's like have a split personality, yea, we will run it cause ratings.

Of course it doesn't help Biden, when his own labor dept under reports the amount of new jobs that were created in July and August.

Oh corporate training. Sure I can help with that.

Employee: I feel under appreciated and like I'm not a value to this company.

Manager: I'm sorry you feel that way. If you aren't happy here you can find employment elsewhere. Does that make you feel better?

Employee: No, not really.

Manager: I'm sorry you feel that way.

Here comes the pivot. Critical Race Theory is so 2021—Social Emotional Learning and mental health programs are the 2022 boogeymen.


Basically, kids aren’t allowed to learn or practice empathy, diversity, wellness, or any of the ideas that might make them a liberal. Oh, and get that yoga out of my school district because Jesus said so.

Funny thing about Yoga in schools is, I've encountered Christians denouncing it as unChristian, but also Hindus complaining about it being cultural appropriation, illegitimately divorcing it from its proper religious context. Wouldn't surprise me to find Muslims have an issue with it also.

Maybe better to go with Pilates?

Who cares if they can though? CRT is a good step in teaching realistic history, and how racial bias is deeply intertwined with the laws and legal system we have.

Interesting. I was raised in an evangelical house and life, yoga was certainly a demonic eastern religion practice, as was "meditation". Oddly enough, praying for hours (basically meditation) was lauded.

IMO, people get too bent up over labels and ignore goals. Call it yoga, pilates, active stretch fitness routine, who cares.....the goal is the same.
