White backlash is a completely real and completely legitimate political-electoral force and people shouldn't pretend otherwise
Don't see how this is controversial: if you are going to attack, shame, and slander white people as a group, then you shouldn't be surprised when they vote in self defense as a group
I also don't see how acknowledging the legitimate concerns of CRT's targets (white people) conflicts fundamentally with class stuff. Both of these issues are real and don't have to necessarily conflict, i.e., ruling class gins up hated of whites for its own ends
Class and the issue of anti white discrimination go together. Best example is elites using the spooky specter of white racism to justify a bigger surveillance apparatus. "We need a bigger FBI and CIA and NSA to stop bubba (an informant) from burning a cross on your lawn!"
Bubba was never apprehended but the Patriotic Act for White People has to stay in place in case he returns

The national GOP's message to Virginians and Americans elsewhere is that the party plans to co-opt grassroots anger at things like CRT that directly affect families to push the same old Big Business policies, the kind of stuff Jeff Bezos and woke corporations that push CRT love
Nothing wrong with lightening the tax burden on the working/middle class but that's not what the GOP does. You get a little tax cut while your enemies get much more and your jobs get go overseas and the party floods the country with mass "legal" immigration
It's pathetic because corporations back the Democratic Party more than the GOP now, so this is basically GOP battered wife syndrome, begging corporations to notice them (at their constituents' expense and with their capital)

With worker strikes across the country underway, two things are noticeable:

-Marxoids refuse to accept some of these protests are connected to vaccine mandates

-Republican politicians, even those who have called for working-class "realignment," aren't championing strikes
It's hilarious that we keep hearing about the realignment from the GOP. Okay, how do we feeling about championing strikes to break the regime? Forget theory and op-eds--it's happening all around. Where is the support?

And "Marxists" are a joke, good little regime bootlickers
US politics are theater. Meanwhile, nameless men and women are putting the fear of God into school boards that abuse their children while working class Americans strike for better wages as "Marxists" tell them to get the jab and Republicans call for more "legal" immigration

This is an excellent catch but I have to say that the first red flag for me was this very tan fellow. Hard to tell, because of the sunglasses, though Image

We need right wing Klaus Schwab, a Machiavellian big brain with the will and vision to remake the world in a fundamentally different way
Problem with American conservatism-right wingism is that it wants to return to something that is beyond reach or cannot exist instead of plotting a course into the future
"We gotta return to 1776/classical liberalism/republicanism"

No you're not and you can't even if you wanted to, but you can draw inspiration from the things previous generations thought were worth fighting and building for

Right-liberals (conservatives) say stuff like: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it"

But what happens when those people you so nobly defend suggest genociding white people as one possible solution to the problem of racism?
This is why the notion of cancel culture as understood by conservatives is wrong. People should be canceled, what matters is who is doing the canceling and why
As a former communist, Sidney Hook argued that members of the Communist Party USA (and others) could be ethically barred from public office because their goal was ultimately replacing the existing order with their own. Conservatives today don't understand self-defense like this

In Texas, libraries show hardcore gay porn to children. This is what your tax dollars are subsidizing in a "red state."

This follows a Kentucky school's “Man Pageant” where male students were encouraged to give lap dances to male teachers, the principal, and a county mayor.
Don't worry guys, the Texas GOP is on the job: they're going to make sure your money continues to pay for this with no strings attached.
Haha oops sorry guys you caught us, we didn't think you'd actually look inside the books we let your kids read
