I've lost 300 followers today. I had added 200 this A.M. but I'm down by 100 on the day, so 300 must have unfollowed.

Good.

I am not here to lie to anyone.
I am not here to cheer-lead
I am not here to get famous
I am not here for clout

I am here to try and tell the truth as honestly as I can. As most of you have seen this week when mess up I apologize.

I am being as honest as I can.

For that reason there is absolutely no circumstance under which I am going to allow my credibility to be destroyed by someone else.

If I ruin my own credibility that's on me and I'll own it. But it will be cold day in hell before I let someone else burn my credibility.

My thread today on where the violence came from in no way excuses the people who refused to properly organize their protest, train their people and behave in a peaceful way.

Own your actions. I excoriated the left in my other thread now I'll hammer the right...

Time to talk Trumpers.

This is Cori Bush's bill to expel from congress anyone who supported election challenges yesterday.

Yesterday was Jan 6.

The bill is dated Jan 5.

*SHE KNEW YOU WOULD PROTEST, LOSE CONTROL, AND GET VIOLENT. AND SHE HAD A BILL READY FOR WHEN YOU DID*

You guys are going to take the "L" here and quite frankly you deserve it. Cori Bush is going to eat your lunch every day until Biden is inaugurated and there isn't a thing you can do about it.

So....

Let's talk about how to make sure this never, ever, happens again.

How did Cori Bush know you guys were going to have problems and violence?

Because she was trained in the lefty protest movement. Lefty organizing are what she did for years, that's her area of expertise. So she knows just how quickly and easily protests go off the rails...

Trump supporters who stormed the capitol think polite debate accomplishes nothing and thag they will be ignored. So they are now resorting to other means.

I wonder where they got that idea? Image

When Bret Kavanaugh was sworn in protestors swamred the Supreme Court and pounded the doors.

They didn't get in, but not for a lack of trying

One of the most common tricks used by woke Social Justice activists to defend their view is to de-legitimize criticism by attacking the motives of the person who is opposing them. The goal is to undercut the moral authority and social standing of anyone who disagrees with them
2/
If you criticize the views of woke Social justice Activists they'll attack your motivations and imply that you're not being honest about your true motives. The goal is to make the audience suspicious of your intentions so they won't trust you or believe anything you say.
3/
By attacking your motives the woke activists can both discredit you while getting the audience to raise their level of skepticism toward you. This tactic is sometime referred to as "poisoning the well."

It is a dirty tactic, but it is effective.

This is not a fair comment. Myself, @NeilShenvi @HPluckrose and @ConceptualJames have all explained how CRT is related to both Marxism and postnodernism, and we have quoted the theorists and academic literature in explaing this...
Critical Race Theory (CRT) is related to marxism because CRT uses a neo-marxist approach called "Critical Theory" when it analyzes the relationship between race and the law.

@ConceptualJames explains How Critical Theory is related to Marxism Here:

There is information about how CRT is related to marxism from @NeilShenvi here:

@MeditarMestizo @NeilShenvi 1/
Delgado and Stefancic explicitly state "recently, critical Race Theory has expanded into other fields" and then give a list.

This is in "the Handbook of Critical Race Theory in Education." Published by Routledge.
@MeditarMestizo @NeilShenvi 2/
There is an entire history of CRT in education amd many books on the topic. Routledge, one of the leading academic publishers has no less than 5 large anthologies on this with material going back 20 years.

To imply CRT is primarily about race and the law is simply not true
@MeditarMestizo @NeilShenvi 3/
Your bio says you're writing a book o CRT for IVP academic. I expect you to be clear about what CRT is and does.
