So, @donwinslow tried to get @joerogan cancelled for saying the N-word.

It turns out that in his books Don winslow has used the n-word a lot... and I mean a **LOT**

So here is a **VERY** long thread of times Don Winslow has used the N-word in his books.

The Department of Homeland has an advisor who's trying to get college funding for illegal immigrants.

As you know from yesterday's thread, the DHS has an Security Academic Partnership Council" that makes recommendations to the Secretary of the DHS regarding education...

How did the woke become convinced that
-socialism is better than capitalism
-men can become women
-Hamas is the good guys
-5 year olds can change their gender?

It's because the Critical Theory wokeness is based on gets almost everything wrong

Lets talk about that

A Thread🧵
2/
According to postmodern variants of Critical Theory the bone of contention in every debate or argument is always power. In this view at the bottom of every argument is a set of political considerations and interests and those are the things that are actually at issue.
3/
If the arguments had no political consequences no one would bother to participate in the argument. It is only the fact that the acceptance of one view over another has political consequences that makes the argument worth having; if there were no consequences no one would care.

This U.S. government report is the most insane thing I've ever seen. It calls for:

-Men in women's prisons
-letting boys use girls washrooms in k-12
-cross-sex hormone access for foster kids
-lawsuits to help minors get hormones and surgery

It's way worse than you think /🧵 Image
2/
In the section on School and education on the chief concerns is making sure people "use the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity."

In practice this means letting boys who identify as girls use the girls bathroom even if they have fully biology. Image
3/
The report says transgender inmates should be allowed to access facilities that align with their gender identity.

In practice this will mean fully functioning biological males who *identify* as female will have a right to be housed in women's prisons.

That's totally absurd Image

I think Critical Theory is a lot like what Robert Nozick called Normative Sociology: "The study of what the causes of things *ought* to be"

Critical Theorists analyze problems in terms of what they *want* the cause to be, rather then what the cause of that problem actually is.
The result is that there are large number of errors because rather then dealing with the thing that is actually creating the problem, they end of trying to solve the problem by analyzing the thing that they were hoping was the cause of the problem.
A problem occurs when Critical Theorists doing "Normative Sociology" think everyone is obligated to agree that the cause of the problem is whatever the Critical Theorists say it is; and then go about morally shaming and scolding anyone who disagrees about the cause of the problem

The attack on Winston Churchill and the revisionist WWII history is a the right wing version of the "everything is problematic" move the woke have been using for years.

It's a right wing 1619 project that wants to destroy the "Post-war consensus" by making America look bad.
2/
This is a right-wing "Critical Theory" of America's involvement in WWII.

The goal is to delegitimize the American order that emerged in the wake of WWII, and so the people doing this magnify America's mistakes during WWII and minimize the horror of what the Nazi's did.
3/
Doing this allows them sow doubt as to who was really responsible for WWII and this then allows them to go about undercutting and subverting the moral authority that America gained by helping to defeat the Nazi's.

They want to drain the moral authority of post-war America.

Darryl Cooper is to WWII what Norman Finklestein is to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Cooper buries people in historical minutia knowing the average person isn't equipped with a deep enough understanding of WWII to properly contextualize the historical points Cooper uses.
2/
The average persons understanding of WWII does not have a high enough resolution to historically locate and properly contextualize the points Cooper brings up, so they aren't properly equipped to determine the relevance, importance, or implications of the facts Cooper presents
3/
When someone can't integrate a set of facts into their understanding of something, they can become intellectually disoriented and begin looking for a way to make sense of the new facts.

This disorientation is what Cooper is trying to create with his deluge of minutia.
