There's an element of @realchrisrufo's strategy no one has picked up on yet. It's this:

Almost nobody outside universities reads academic papers, so the papers radical activist professors write in which they defend absurd ideas don't get read by the general public.

So...
2/
Leftist acadenics are free to use academic journals to advance their social and political goals in the academy and no one notices because no one outside the academy reads it.

This dynamic allows leftist profs to make absurd claims on behalf of leftist dogma and pay no price.
3/
Since no one outside academia reads these journals, activist profs could claim truth does not exist, everything is about power, men can become women, and other such wild claims, and the general public was unaware that academia had been hijacked by a political agenda.

But....
4/
Now @realchrisrufo has started a plagiarism war in academia. And you what that means?

It means people are now looking for plagiarism in academia, and in order to do find plagiarism gues whst they are going to have to do?

That's right...they have to read academic journals.
@realchrisrufo 5/
And when they read those journals they are going to find paper after paper denying objectice truth, papers claiming racial identity matters more than facts, papers that claim lived experience is more important than evidence, and papers claiming children can pick their gender.
@realchrisrufo 6/
What @realchrisrufo has done by starting the plagiarism wars is to get people outside academia to actually READ all of the insane nonsense that's being produced by activist professors.

Now regular people, even those who hate Rufo, will be forced to confront the fact...
@realchrisrufo 7/
that the universities have been hijacked by activists who are using the universities as a vehicle to advance the political and social goal of the left.

It's brilliant.

@realchrisrufo has figure out how to out people in a position where they HAVE to read the papers....
@realchrisrufo 8/
And when they do they will quickly see that he was telling the truth about political corruption in our academic institutions.

The issue here is that radical leftists are running a motte and bailey game with DEI.

They use the very reasonable position @mcuban outlines as their motte, and one they gain power they abolish merit hiring, use hiring quotas, and require the adoption of leftist politics.
Image
2/
Further, the adoption of particular political positions is very often made a condition of hiring. This usually takes the form of requiring employees to sign mandatory diversity statements containing loaded political language. Other times the demand is simply implicit...
3/
and those who don't get on board are denied advancement or are not hired.

In essence, DEI seeks to enforce a particular worldview and a set of (very left) social values on entire companies. In it's most pernicious form, DEI departments hijack entire institutions.

The racist/racism label was so powerful that a single accusation (true or not) could destroy someone's reputation or career.

The left used the power of the word "racist" to label people in order to gain power, win political fights, settle scores, or hurt social rivals.

So...
2/
Some many on the right came to think that because it sucks up all the oxygen of every conversation and can destroy careers and reputations, the racism/racist label has too much power and something must be done to lessen the power of that label.

The problem is this:
3/
To turn down the power of the word, some people are trying to disenpower the label by either just embracing racism as a good thing in an attempt to reverse the social power of the word, or by claiming racism is no sin at all in order to simply take the power out of the word.

Leftist activists abuse their power every time they get any:

-Teachers in K-12 teaching woke ideology in class
-Woke HR administrators forcing DEI training on employees
-Soros DA's refusing to prosecute criminals

And now:

-Election officials taking Trump off the ballot
2/
In every case they do the same things:

1. Ask forgiveness not permission.

The woke activist will simply abuse their power by doing whst they want and seeing if they can get away with it. They do not ask if what they are doing is allowed, they simply do it and see if...
3/
anyone stops them. If not, they keep going

2. They will demand other people follow the "norms" and previous ways rules were interpreted, while the woke activist tosses norms out the window and inerprets the rules in what ever way suits them.

They will grant themselves...

Now that cancel culture is being used against radical extremists on the left (this woman said Oct 7 made her feel "proud") I expect the left will now join me in extolling the virtues of free speech and not getting people fired for their views.

(She shouldn't have been fired)
2/
What is happening is that when the left could cancel whoever they wanted, appeals to principle, or charity, or forgiveness were laughed off and appeals to free speech were met with smug invocations of this XKCD comic👇 Image
3/
The left then talked about how "this isn't cancel culture, it's concequence culture," and the importance of "accountibility" for people's views.

So now the political right has accepted the lefts' rules, and are using cancel culture against the left, and what happens????

It's because those organizations believe the values, norms, attitudes, beliefs, and conventions that uphold the heterosexual two parent nuclear family as the standard for how to do family are a product of white supremacy, patriarchy, racism, sexism, and transphobia.
2/
These organizations think that any form of family that assumes that a chuld needs both a mother and a father is homophobic and transphobic, and that any paradigm for family life that focuses on fatherhood is reproducing and maintaining an oppresive gender binary.
3/
A focus on fatherhood "centers" the privileged group (men)
rather then marginalized groups (women and trans people).

So these groups only offer support to single mom's, gay married couples, trans couples, and so fourth. A family where the man leads get no help because...

Pro-palestine protestor:

"October 7th was one of the greatest days in the history of DECOLONIZATION."

Decolonization is an evil, violent, genocidal ideology that justifies (and in this video even celebrates) the murder of innocent civilians in the name of leftist politics.
2/
Franz Fanon wrote in the 60's that "decolonization is always a violent phenomenon."

The violence is not accidental....it's the entire GOAL of large swaths of the decolonization literature. Image
3/
Decolonization is not a synonym for fairness, equality, or justice. Decolonization is a political movement believes the west is an immoral, evil, illegitimate empire that needs to be abolished and destroyed, and that western ideas, and institutions need to be destroyed as well
