Taking videos out of context and providing commentary to frame interpretation is a type of deception. There is a reason why that person was talking about MAPs. You may not agree, but it is irresponsible to not inform your audience of that reason.

This deception was (is) simply not necessary.
Rufo should have come at it honestly and advocated for teaching about race in academically legitimate ways and in accordance with our cultural values as Americans.
