There is so much euphemism, coded language and obfuscation in these two @AP paragraphs that a casual reader would have no idea what’s at stake is chemical castration of and grown men exposing themselves to children.

That’s literally what this is about Image They want YOU to be SUPPORTIVE of these things. They want to HIDE the reality of these things from YOU, and make YOU feel BAD for opposing them. Don’t let dishonest media outlets mislead you.

The censorship machine is gearing up hard to come at @libsoftiktok. The simple fact is when prominent disseminators of info cover the weird shit you are doing with kids, it’s the weird shit that’s earning you the attention, NOT the people covering it! Image It only took three tweets. People calling for ruthless censorship of the opposition also calling other people nazis, who’d’ve thunk?!

This person works at Harvard’s “Cyber Law” center btw, which is a euphemistic name for a place that specializes in secreting discourse policing. Image

Good moment to remind people:

- Blunt force will just make pits and other types of dogs rage harder.

- Dogs can be choked out. Seriously. If you see someone getting attacked, get in there and rob the dog of air. It’ll pass out. Other weak points of attack if you’re ever in this situation: Legs and ribs break easily. Eyes.

But these are for if the situation is truly dire.

Lived in some fucked up places in my time, sometimes you gotta be ready for the extraordinary.

“This is not about CRT, this is more about equity.” Is perhaps among the more dissonant interpretations of policy. Big red flag too when media is basically in lockstep telling parents that what they’re seeing — racial affinity groups, racial “equity” initiatives that openly discriminate — and say “actually this is not CRT.”

They’re speaking past parents, deliberately, to obfuscate.

I'm not sure I've ever seen a more shameless treatment. This is basically left wing oppo wholesale. nytimes.com/2021/10/27/us/… They open the story by basically attacking the mother and her child, who is now an adult and working in politics. It's truly fucking disgusting.

This seems super ominous, but all it boils down to is AT&T giving OAN a DirectTV contract not unlike the contracts it gives the “7 or 8” other lefty outlets, among them MSNBC, a network that actively helped whip the public into a frenzy of fire last summer reuters.com/investigates/s… I know that wider media would never admit it and would find the idea utterly hilarious, but objectively, MSNBC puts out as much misinfo and invective as any other network, OAN included. It’s just that they are part of the media majority, and so they escape similar scrutiny.

Guys … stop doing gain of function

Incredible sound bites from Channel 4, wait until the end. This is captain trips level fuckery

This is a pretty flimsily supported conspiracy theory that (of course) blames the Koch brothers for the public interest in and resistance to CRT.

How does it do that? Well … It says (several grafs deep) that 28 think tanks with “known ties” to the Koch Network produced 79 articles on CRT in schools during a whole year (!!!)

What a lot of people might not remember is that the surge decision was predicated by a highly publicized leak of the Pentagon’s intended ask of Obama, who was, at least publicly, postured more toward drawing down. google.com/amp/s/amp.thea… That either A. Forced Obama’s hand, or B. Justified what he wanted to do in private.

Either way, we gave Stanley McChrystal 100,000 troops for the hilariously bad idea he called “government in a box.”

I just read the Biden/Stephanopolous transcript and I’m shocked at how poorly Biden was held to account. I’m not sure if George’s knowledge of the situation is just superficial or if the intent was to speak in generalities as much as possible, but wow, really poor interview. Like this right off the bat.

Literally corporals and PFCs on smokedecks in Afghanistan 10 years ago anticipated this.

Someone with some knowledge and depth needs a sit down with Biden, this was truly just George doing him a favor. Image

If you work in the USG, Biden just codified a hyper racial hellscape for you and all your coworkers.

Euphemistically: DIVERSITY AND SENSITIVITY TRAINING!

Reality: Unscientific bullshit that does not measurably counter bias and likely ingrains “RACE ESSENTIALISM”

Yippee! What does “Diversity Training” look like in practice? Well, it’s rife with principles and practices stemming from — you guessed it — CRITICAL THEORY.

This neo marxist mumbo jumbo manifests itself in privilege walks, implicit bias tests, lessons in white privilege, white rage

I've read ~1,000 pages of academic and news copy on CRT in the past two months, and the folks who find it most difficult to define clearly are the liberal press.

Like here, in a wapo hit piece on @realchrisrufo that requires several corrections. archive.is/3pDwF#selectio… Image *required*

It’s amazing the lengths “disinfo reporters” will go to misinform and misdirect the public’s understanding of a topic.

Exhibit A: NBC’s disinfo reporters defining “Critical Race Theory” as simply “the academic study of racism’s pervasive impact.”

lol I mean, “lessons on systemic racism” is a hilarious inaccurate summary of “critical race theory”

To call it euphemistic would be to give it too much credit even.

The other fascinating thing is that Colbert and other higher primates that vote democrat and swaddle themselves in “science,” basically most of the press, keep using the “where’s the evidence” refrain.

It’s willfully ignorant because: A. There’s only ever really been circumstantial evidence for either theory

And

B. The circumstantial evidence for zoonotic is SUBSTANTIALLY weaker.

It basically consists of Pope Fauci saying it’s historically more likely, which is …. True, but not a good way to close the book

I keep seeing this assertion that conservatives don’t know what critical race theory is, and it’s flat out wrong. For a little more than a year, the proponents of this destructive ideology have been rebranding it “diversity training,” and when conservatives called bullshit and somewhat successfully started identifying it in pedagogy and policy, the new line is they don’t know what it is.

1. To demonstrate my own, as an example, the first conversation about gain of function I had was May 1, 2020. It led me down a month's long rabbit hole researching highly technical papers. Sometimes it took me a week or more to read and fully understand 10 pages. I did not actually pitch a story on it until first week of Jan.

I would love to say I was ahead of everyone. I wasn't. We did some reporting on lab leak, but we didn't get really aggressive on it until recently.

A lot of that is my fault. I was trepidatious.

Reading the Vanity Fair story and a bunch of things jump out at me just concerning the mythology of early 2020.

Many in establishment and corporate media have been blaming Trump for their own efforts to suppress lab leak hypothesis.

It’s odd. It reads like TDS. Do your fucking brains shut off when Trump talks? Does the sound of his voice negate all ability to reason?

Trump’s “racism” in this case was just a reactionary response to wider media and elite institutions adopting Pro China postures and Chinese propaganda wholesale.

1. A decent amount of people were confused about this tweet yesterday, so I’ll explain:

It’s late 2016. Obama is still in office. The IC, Democrats, and the media are fairly determined to investigate Trump criminally, to build a case based on innuendo, selective leaks, and lies. 2. The case is that Don Trump teamed up with Vlad Putin to hack Podesta and the DNC’s emails and then leak them strategically in order to win the election for Trump, all while managing to avoid the most sophisticated surveillance apparatus mankind has ever known. (The NSA et al)

Take notes, everyone, this is how political stratcom operatives use media for damage control ...

cnn.com/2021/06/01/pol… Command messaging high up in the story, probably almost word for word what the Harris team wanted to convey.

I wonder if Biden gave her clearance for this or if her office is freelancing

One thing I will never forget:

We are having this conversation exactly a year late because the media wanted to make sure Biden won the election. The irony is that Trump probably would have lost anyway, but the fact remains, any line of inquiry remotely perceived as beneficial to Trump had to be stamped out … and anyone willing to pursue it was treated as an insane pariah AND viciously suppressed on social media.
