How deep a fall. 20 years ago I thought "Wowh". Today, I am disgusted to the max, and not just since this week. I once said the former president brings out the worst in man. Guiliani is a textbook example.

You lumping CRT with the others and insinuating that it is something the army must be prepared to fight against is simply dishonest and shows just how scared you are. Last edited by Dowly; 06-26-21 at 07:56 AM. |

I guess the main reason to the American Civil war wasn't just because of the Slavery, I'm pretty sure there were other factors.
Mixed these together and you have a recipe on a civil war Markus

Looking back the good generals film clip, i agree that he didn't say hitler but he certainly did say mao. He also included the ...tse tung and I guess that must have been your subconscious troll mind preventing you from making the connection right. See I can make stupid assumptions too. The US military studies the works and lives of Mao tse Tung, Marx, Lenin, hitler and other despotic evil ideologies for that exact reason of helping to defeat their forces on the battlefield, and btw the General claims he remains free of becoming a communist. If they are teaching CRT in the same manner as those other crackpot ideologies then I have no problem with it but since the army has already fired commanders who have criticized CRT and they are only now defending it because they got caught lying about teaching it in the first place I believe it is being presented as an officially approved belief system for our officers to follow. Prove me wrong or shut up.

Some comments here are the direct answer why CRT is indeed needed to make people at least aware of the general situation.

As for your stupid assumption, I fully agree; you sure can make them. See, you quoted me after I had already edited my post to cross over Mao, so nice try but that just makes you look silly. Oh right, and constantly calling me a troll is 'making it personal', so quit your fake outrage. |

I posted what you wrote directly above my qestion. What the photo of the declaration says is that keeping slavery was not the 'initial cause', but their cause as such.
That Lincoln may have had other ideas going beyond, to suppress future rebellion, does not change the southern reason and cause for the secession.

It is about the underlying situation called systemic racism. Not much people are actually racist (a few, of course) or actively do something against black people, Mexicans, or against "people coming from sh!tholes" as Mr. T. so elegantly described.
Systemic racism is so deeply embedded in american culture and behaviour that it is not even recognised as such anymore. It is what sociologists call cognitive dissonance, the "discomfort is triggered by the person's belief clashing with new information perceived, wherein they try to find a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce their discomfort."

^ Is the American law racist in its construction ?
By reading your comment it made me wonder if this should be the case. Markus
