      But that’s fascists calling reality fake…

      We can’t take any of them seriously. I didn’t think I had to keep pointing that out in 2023.

      I meant a rational person declaring something they don’t like as hate speech.

      Do you understand how crazy it is to say:

      We can’t call anything hate speech, because the people using hate speech all the time call everything they don’t like hate speech

      Fascists have been trying to do that forever, dont start falling for it now all of a sudden.

        Yuuup. Just like they say about liberals calling for the protection of pronouns: “Genders is gender!”

        So yeah, sorry, but we have to be VERY careful about any kind of “Free speech, except…” because anyone can fill in that blank.

        Don’t act like this is some crazy tactic that no one would fall for. There are kids down the street from me RIGHT NOW learning about how slavery is misunderstood and it gave people lots of valuable skills.

          ironically, slavery just being misunderstood is due to the “I will defend your right to say ANYTHING crowd”

      No, they’re stopping woke political teachings of race. Not anything else. The differences in race and our history has always been taught, and will continue to be. Teaching black kids that they’re victims of white people, and white kids that’s they’re racists has NO place in their education. And that HAS been taught to them. Those teachings take innocent children and MAKE them racist against the other race. There’s no other outcome.

          Downvoted solely for use of “cucked”. For fuck’s sake, that word needs to die, not be “reclaimed” or whatever the fuck. It just makes me irrationally angry.

        Who is telling white kids they’re racist? Honestly.

        Oh do you mean their ancestors? Because that’s kind of a big difference.

          Exactly. Nobody is telling white kids they’re racist for existing. That dude just exemplifies the kind of brain rot you get when all your news comes from Breitbart, Fox News, and Facebook memes.

        Except black people’s lives have been made worse by white people. Where’s the lie? White kids are not being taught they’re racist. I got a “woke” education and white people were not taught that they’re inherently bigoted. In fact, we were taught that anyone can be a bigot, regardless of who they are, and that any category can be used to cause division and hate.

        I wish you would take your face out of the slop of lies the right wing media feeds you. It makes me sad.

          Where’s the lie?

          as a white conservative, I think it’s an affront to justice that I can’t call black people N****s and have to “respect their rights”! true freedom is having the right to own people!

        What school is teaching what you said? Are you familiar with actual CRT and where it is applied? Hint: not in grade schools. Nobody thinks white children should be ashamed of their race and vice versa. Giving students an accurate history and equipping them to understand racial issues is vital. Let’s not confuse ignorance with innocence.
