If babies aren’t being taught to be racist then where the fuck are all the racists coming from?

They're not even hiding it the pointy hats and sheets.
They brought up Dred Scott, Plessey v Fergusson, CRT, and now social justice and progressive education.

A mediocre white man pandering to White Nationalist Chrstains, mansplaining and dumbing down Blackness to a far more intelligent Black Woman. Now he's connecting CRT to children's books that discuss race.

Children have to be carefully taught to hate. Cancun Cruz and the rest of the Republicans can't abide a world where they can't openly hate everyone not exactly like them. Or shoot them.

Trying to score political points on "CRT." Hey, it worked for Youngkin! Expect a lot more of this crap for the next 2-3 years.

Beating to death CRT and child pornography. For a brief, shining moment I thought the sign holders behind Cruz were going to boink him in the head.

Like Graham - any kind of attention is good.

What happened in their families growing up? Too much attention or not enough?
