This is a thread on the 2022 right-wing documentary UNCLE TOM II, a film based entirely on the worldview and source material of the John Birch Society.

It has been promoted by Charlie Kirk & Jack Posobiec as proof that MLK & the civil rights movement were secretly Communist. 🧵 Image
1. Leading up to MLK Day this year, Kirk & Posobiec decided they were going to abandon the standard Republican ritual (quoting King out of context, depicting the civil rights hero as a colorblind conservative).

Instead, they wanted to vilify MLK and the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

2. On the eve of MLK Day, Posobiec was promoting UNCLE TOM II and its narrator Chad O. Jackson as authoritative sources on King's connections to "Communists."

Kirk had already promoted UNCLE TOM II on Real America's Voice in 2022 after the film was released.

Because everyone is talking about Ibram Kendi: it is so deeply upsetting to me that when reading groups and book lists were popping up after George Floyd was murdered it was always the work of people like Kendi & DiAngelo. Imagine if everybody read Charles Mills instead 🥲
Robin DiAngelo made a shit ton of money telling other white people that white people are basically incurably racist and Ibram Kendi made a shit ton of money basically claiming to be the sole arbiter of what racism truly is and refused to acknowledge any critiques of his views
I get a bit more detailed with my critiques here, but I ultimately do have a lot more to say, been wanting to write something about this and maybe I will soon (if any media sites/mags are interested, DM me!)

and go read Charles Mills

Chris Rufo took a break from suing college students for "political violence" (read: getting spit on his shoes) to argue that conservatives should turn to Nixon "as our guide" in mobilizing a "counterrevolution" against things like CRT and DEI.

A quick thread on Nixon & Rufo 🧵
It is interesting that Rufo venerates Nixon, because Rufo likes to talk about how he is deeply opposed to racism, often pointing to the fact that he is in an interracial marriage and has biracial children.

Nixon was deeply racist. Ex 1: Nixon & Reagan discuss African diplomats
Being charitable, you might think that the Reagan phone call is not enough to call Nixon racist.

Ex 2: Nixon explains that, while he is against abortion in some cases, he thinks it is necessary to prevent the birth of interracial ("a black and a white") children.

"Cultural Marxism" has entered mainstream political discourse, appearing in recent speeches by DeSantis and Hawley, Fox News broadcasts, and right-wing media from Breitbart to Ben Shapiro.

This is a thread, with clips, on the 25-year history of "Cultural Marxism" on the Right 🧵
1. We begin with the arch-conservative activist and TV host, Bill Lind.

He began his 1998 talk "The Origins of Political Correctness" by saying college campuses have become so authoritarian that he'd be put "literally on trial" for joking about women and shopping carts
2. Lind says political correctness is seen as something to laugh at, but in fact "it's deadly serious. It is the great disease of our century, the disease that has left tens of millions of people dead... the disease of ideology."

"Political Correctness is Cultural Marxism."

Greg Wickenkamp taught 8th-grade social studies in Iowa, where a GOP state legislator accused him of violating a law against teaching CRT.

Mr. Wickenkamp asked his superintendent whether he was allowed to teach students that slavery is wrong.

She couldn't give him an answer.
While I have your attention, check out my latest article about anti-CRT laws and the anti-CRT moral panic for @TheForumAAPF: forummag.com/2023/03/06/fea…

One thing I want to highlight: how important it is that we NOT respond to the moral panic by saying “CRT isn’t even being taught.” When liberals and moderates respond to the anti-CRT moral pa
