I will not stand by and let looney Marxist UT professors poison the minds of young students with Critical Race Theory. We banned it in publicly funded K-12 and we will ban it in publicly funded higher ed. Thats why we created the Liberty Institute at UT. https://statesman.com/story/news/2022/02/15/ut-faculty-council-passes-resolution-defending-teaching-critical-race-theory/6754421001/

must have a lot of dirty secrets. Anyone who acts the way he does, is usually hiding some shit. I wonder what kind of weird sex stuff he's into.

I mean explain what it ACTUALLY is, not what your dumb ass thinks it is.
