Yup......an attempt to further divide us. Some people want to see this country burn. Those behind critical race theory want a socialist revolution. They need the division to make it happen

I’m not only ok with it, I think teaching American kids to know their country’s past and to be proud of whom we are is a fantastic idea. I think the foreigners, non-citizens, and America haters can eat a root. There’s nothing wrong with patriotism. If you don’t like patriotism then don’t be patriotic. That there is the extent of your “right”.

Why can't we leave this movement to the Rush Limbaugh's of the country, privately funded twisting of reality? For example the Rush Revere series that was so popular among the far right.
They’re indoctrinating them now with anti-white and anti-American critical race theory. This never-ending whining about white people, cancelling Columbus Day, changing of team names and the tearing down statues didn’t just pop up out of nowhere. This indoctrination is the reason everything that was completely normal 30 years ago is suddenly offensive.

Critical race theory is nothing more than an attempt at revenge.

Well, we are seeing what is "going wrong" with the "Critical Race Theory" curriculum and "restorative justice" approaches in American and European schools right now.

Imagine this being the standard right now:

And this kind of garbage is ONLY being peddled in the west.

Honestly, it's time to purge the teachers that are poisoning children's minds with this stuff. Just fire them, outright.

Do any of you know the curriculum of the 1619 project from reading it yourself? Doubt it. And you surely haven’t read this new proposed curriculum either. Keyboard warriors spoon fed by media. Good luck with that.

I wonder if Trump is also going to form a Trump Youth organization to further his indoctrination desire. He can issue kids uniforms and have them parade around.

This is disgusting that this is happening in our own countries. What these children are learning is that they are better off in the company of other whites and that is what they will seek.

Trump is literally trying to change history and is the one doing the indoctrination. This is very similar to the propaganda distributed to the Hitler Youth. Do not be fooled, Trump has no respect the constitution or this country is will just try to govern has he pleases. This is how fascism starts, if we don't do anything about it.
Your spin on this great news amounts to nothing short of Butt-Spew (BS), and disgracefully-so.
