🔥 🧵🧵🧵The latest victim of the cancel culture, woke mob: Los Altos Councilwoman Lynette Lee Eng has been openly targeted, harassed and threatened by a local activist group called Justice Vanguard since November 2020, after refusing to vote for an anti-police proposal.
2/ On 11/24, Ms. Lee Eng received this text from the group leader: "Your name is going to be all over the papers. We know there are racists that supported you.” Since then, Justice Vanguard warriors have called into every Los Altos City Council meetings to bully & insult her.
3/On 12/08, Kenan Moos--Supreme Leader of Justice Vanguard called in: "Lynette, Lynette, Lynette, it has now been two weeks since you criminalized Justice Vanguard and me, two weeks since you joined the Karen's of America with your continued, denigration of black people..."
4/Then Mr. Moos continued to denigrated Ms. Lee Eng: "You are not fit to serve our community... I've been warned by many that there are many racists from NextDoor that are coming to talk tonight.” Just because she didn't vote to abolish local police.
5/Instead of seeing through these terrorists' dirty tricks of smearing, shaming and intimidation, the Los Altos City Council is cowering to illiberal demands. drive.google.com/file/d/1eJd-19…
6/In this patronizing resolution, the city council asks Ms. Lee Eng to clarify the following issues: "that her November 24th Statement was wrongly perceived and/or understood by many that Mr. Moos had physically threatened her and her family in his text messages...
7/addressing the impact of that wrongful perception and understanding, and admitting that Mr. Moos did not call her racist." Shame on you, Los Altos City Council, for caving in to appease the mob and disregard the honor and reputation of your own council member. SHAME ON YOU!
8/Notably, Ms. Lee Eng is the only moderate member on Los Altos City Council. She is being cancelled simply because she questioned the cost of additional police auditing in her small town. This is a prime case of cancel culture and also one of the tyranny of the masses.
9/I want to give a shout-out to my friend, Cupertino Vice Mayor Liang-Fang Chao for supporting truth and supporting Councilwoman Lee Eng. Please sign on this petition to say no to woke cancel culture.

☠️ If the "rebuttal" to CRT's "race essentialism" is the notion that race is a social construct, is "abolishing the white race" then just an abolitionist (not racial) practice to decenter Enlightenment values associated with social whiteness? Does this make it less racist? Image
2/In other words, does the excuse justify a revolutionary end goal to transform power to the racialized oppressed via a puritan purge of "white supremacist" ideas such as individualism, hard-work, merit, rationality... ? Isn't associating these ideas with whiteness racist?
3/What if the purge requires attacking fundamental liberal values upon which our civilization was forged, which has clearly been the case with the end goal--a power grab? Intersectionality, social constructs, lived experience... pale in terms of relevance and consequence.

🔥What’s worse than socialized medicine? 🌀CRT medicine! The American Medical Association recently released an 86-page strategic plan and a 3-year roadmap to dismantle “structural and institutional racism” through 5 equity-centered approaches. 👏👏👏Committee of Public Health?
AMA is following 🐾 of @TheLancet & @StanfordMed to actively engage CRT. The plan calls for racial and social justice throughout the AMA enterprise culture, systems, policies, and practices and racial healing, reconciliation and transformation in its racially discriminatory past.
AMA will promote policies that eliminate “racial essentialism” and “empower physicians and health systems to dismantle... intersecting systems of oppression.” This will surely exacerbate racial achievement gaps in medical education partly due to long-standing racial preferences.

Government-funded neo-racism taking place now in Eanes Independent School District. Alumni and students speak out against lack of divesting in curriculum due to a lack of black authors. ⁦@ConceptualJames⁩ ⁦@DefendingEd⁩ ⁦@burns_law
“We designed the surveys on race because we felt that was the issue in the district.” “The focus on anti-racism is in response to what we discovered.” @FreeBlckThought @Moms4Liberty @realchrisrufo
“In my 15 years working in Eanes ISD, I have never had an incident with targeting students by skin color, or making students feel bad for their race...” said a school board official. Yet “there is a race problem.” Double standards? @CharlesNegy @AurelianofRome @LegInsurrection

🔥🧵📰 Yesterday, Eanes Independent School District in Austin, TX had a board meeting to discuss DEI. Again, DEI is a codename for CRT. Courageous parents from diverse backgrounds rallied against intrusion of taxpayer-funded DEI in this top-tier district and called out the lies. ImageImage
2/ Eanes ISD hired DEI consultant Mark Gooden of Columbia to conduct a survey on racism. His research design is unscientific, engulfing complex realities in a race-centric frame. His conclusion? "There was a race issue that made students of color feel excluded and/or unwelcomed."
3/ Feeling the need to distance his sales pitch from CRT, Gooden then proceeded to prescribe essentially CRT solutions to combat the "race issue". His pitch includes DEI-focused consultant, website, advisory committee, handbooks, focus groups and anti-racism. All market-oriented.

💡At an invited speech for a Cornell law students group, I was asked if I'd be ok with banning "affirmative action" resulting in 50% of ⬇️ in black enrollment. My response: "Are you insinuating black students can't get ahead w/o preferences?" 🙊 @LegInsurrection @ConceptualJames
2)Just to throw out some relevant info. on affirmative (racial) action (preferences). The very woke #NYT ran an editorial on 08/24/17 w. this title-“Even With Affirmative Action, Blacks and Hispanics Are More Underrepresented at Top Colleges Than 35 Years Ago.” @FreeBlckThought
@FreeBlckThought 3)40%+ of black students at overrated Ivies are from African/Caribbean immigrant or hybrid families. While URM applicants from well-off families benefit, poor Asian and white kids get the shaft. The whole system downgrades. K-12 pipeline issues are unaddressed. @ConceptualJames

1/ Pondering my exact place on the oppressor-oppressed spectrum and getting seriously confused. Is it just me or we all feel shades of gray, that the vast majority fall btw? Really enjoyed reading Das Kapital as a theoretical masterpiece, and just that. @HPluckrose @realchrisrufo
2/ Marx built his theories against the historical backdrop of industrial revolution. It didn’t help my homeland but served as a guide to paint dissidents as capitalists. Just saying.🤐 @ConceptualJames @TeacherMeyers
3/ back to my “soul-searching”: Grew up in late Red China w. a single parent, worked below min. wage to support my education, married to an obvious “oppressor”, have a comfortable “middle-class” life now thanks to God, family and hardwork. So where should I be? @CalEthStudies
