I would pay a thousand dollars to bring George Carlin back from the dead just to hear him do 15 minutes on Jordan Peterson
For those skeptical that he'd skewer curmudgeonly Kermit
And for those who are convinced he would "DESTORY WOKENESS" see him here on White Fascist America. Do your homework people
Second sentence: "It shouldn't be a surprise that rich White men don't care about poor Black people, period."

GEORGE CARLIN SUPPORTS CRT!?!??! 😱😱😱

This interview of Rufo from @JoyAnnReid was an endlessly entertaining, exemplary piece of counter-disinformation. The Right is brilliant at one thing: baiting the Left into accepting their framing and vocabulary 🧵

First, Reid exposes Rufo's distortion of Kendi & of "whiteness."
To anticipate a fair objection: It is true that CRT has become influential outside of law schools and exists now in depts of Sociology, Education, and Philosophy.

But even if we allow Robin DiAngelo to count as CRT, then what? Do we denounce History bc Holocaust deniers exist?
Reid asks: Where did the term "whiteness" come from?

Rufo doesn't acknowledge that the racial sense of the term was invented by white supremacists. In fact he doesn't really answer her question at all, instead tries to make it about the Cupertino story he lied to the world about

If you've seen Chris Rufo on your timeline over the past 24 hours, odds are you witnessed him proclaim a triumphant victory over the Washington Post, which he and several fellow anti-woke propagandists denounced as dishonest.

Buckle up folks, this is going to be a long one. 🧵
Many joined in on the dunk session. And note the tone here: these aren't quasi-neutral accusations of simple mistakes -- not even close. They're "major errors" or LIES from journalists who HATE Rufo.

Today, both Federalist & Post Millennial championed Rufo's heroic "exposé"
Here is how Rufo starts his debunking. Note the very serious-sounding, empty, bureaucratic diction: "the fabrication of a timeline" and "multiple smears that are easily proven by documentary evidence."

Rufo tries to take a stand against white identitarianism. His fans aren’t having it.
I am zero percent surprised. I’ve been trying to ring alarm bells about Rufo pandering to white racial resentment for a while.
This stuff is everywhere. It’s coming from the friends and collaborators of Borysenko and co. Which phrase will be next? Maybe “Diversity is code for white genocide”? adl.org/education/refe…

1/5 Some people were upset with me for calling Rufo’s talking points “literal neo-Nazism.” Let me quickly explain why I’m not exaggerating. 🧵
2/5 Rufo says the Critical Theorists “set out in search of another entry point for their politics and found it in the social and racial unrest of the 1960s.” But when that didn’t work, “they went back to the drawing board” (showing pictures of Herbert Marcuse & Angela Davis)
3/5 As Prof. Jason Stanley (@jasonintrator) explains, this kind of trope has a long antisemitic history. The Jews are said to be manipulating Black people (who, in the White supremacist ideology, are not smart enough to think for themselves) to fight for progressive values.

Can't believe the man actually agreed to debate one of his critics. In this & the clip below, Prof. @Marclamonthill gives a masterclass on elegant, respectful defenestration of fraudulent gurus such as James "World-Level Expert in Critical Race Theory" "Concepts" Lindsay himself.
@marclamonthill Lindsay was struggling to articulate an answer and he began equivocating and throwing jargon around--perhaps to appear as competent as he claims to be.

Hill's reply is so thorough that James observes aloud, "You know a lot about this." Yeah, because he actually STUDIED it, James
