They're not even trying to hide the polarizing purge that's going on.

To be sure, Lhamon’s track record on Title IX is worth scrutinizing. Under her leadership, OCR coerced colleges to adopt a new “preponderance of the evidence” standard for investigating allegations of sexual assault and abuse on campus—a standard that critics on both left and right say creates a presumption of guilt. When Donald Trump’s Education secretary Betsy DeVos issued a regulation with a stronger emphasis on due process, even the liberal Washington Post editorial board admitted that DeVos got quite a bit right.

After leaving OCR, Lhamon was appointed to lead the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, where she oversaw a report on disciplinary disparities, Beyond Suspensions. The report concluded that, despite substantial disparities by race in school suspensions, “students of color as a whole, as well as by individual racial group, do not commit more disciplinable offenses than their white peers.” The Washington Post pointed out that the report’s citations “did not offer such evidence. One set of data referenced in the report showed the opposite.” Either Lhamon had a sloppy grasp of the evidence on an issue she has worked on for years, or she willingly propagated misinformation through America’s premiere civil rights commission.

You might remember me mentioning this "track record" as she was in charge of OCR when the infamous April 4th, 2011 Dear Colleague Letter went out.

That was essentially the beginning of the Purity Brigade within academia and the purging of anyone that does not tow the line of Theory. The polarized environment that we have right now I believe boils down to this initial action just after the 2010 election cycle.

It's looking like The Plan the whole time was to take us much slower to where we are headed but they lost 4 years. They certainly couldn't lose 8. They're also making up for the 4 they lost. While they were conjuring up BS schemes of Russian collusion, and peeing, they were actually negotiating behind the scenes for some sort of global "partnership/revolution/sellout" that probably leaves them on top and everyone else as slaves.

Maybe we should listen to them when they say that there are too many people on the planet.
