Redditors argue that CRT both doesn’t exist in K-12 but also that “accurate racial history” is being taught and needs to be taught to little kids.

“Why do you not want kids to be taught that our democratic values are inherently racist” because thats how you get the kind of distrust in the system that creates the anti-vaxers, jan sixers and proud boys you despise

Racism counteracts racism dude! Ur late to the message.
Shitlibs bringing racism back is an attempt to make people more hateful and afraid of others, and therefore more useful for the war effort. I think the hippies really scared some high ups that people might love one another instead of killing them, so it became important to put ourselves back in racist pit of heck times so we can formulate a common national enemy.

Yes the education system is why conservatives are gullible conspiratards, not the fact conservatism inherently breeds gullability and victimhood narratives.

Also its hilarious because my point was that the education system is NOT causing gullibility, but rather the undermining of the education system and the insistence it treats non-objective, illiberal ideas as being on the same level of intellectual as democratic values and the striving for empirical evidence

What are they even talking about? No one is trying to stop people from teaching about slavery. People just didn't like teachers telling little yts that they are born with the original sin of being privileged, racist garbage. Even little trailer park Johnny with tweaked out parents. He's privileged.

I went to school in a conservative state and still had an excellent "liberal" education in gradeschool. Especially when it came to the topic of slavery. These people have a weird fetish of pushing their mayo guilt on to others

Yeah, if anything the basic leftie historical narrative is practically taken as a given even in many red state curriculums.
I don't mean that there's anything false, just that it's common to arrange history into a series of "and then X people were oppressed, and then Y people fought for their rights" points because it's easy to organize, leads to interesting topics, and gets people emotionally invested. If you put too much emphasis on conflict theory, you can miss some pretty core elements of history, but it's generally an accepted framework even in conservative environments.
So wokies aren't mad that slavery, Jim Crow, etc. aren't being covered. They are covered, in great detail. They're actually mad that history classes teach that progress is possible and things have improved. They want to teach that things are just terrible forever. That's the CRT difference.

You described it perfectly. They refer to it the "rights boogeyman" when in actuality its their attempt to push this propagandized version of history when the current way it is taught is more than fine.

That's all fake progress. Real progress only comes from dismantling systems of oppression.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
It’s so perfect and amazing how circular this argument is. It makes perfect sense and doesn’t at the same time. Anyone can look at history and see how the best events were all about dismantling the terrible system. But at the same time, in order to dismantle the system we must be more powerful than it, and must oppress it as well. So it just comes back to the same thing, after you get rid of the oppression system then you become the oppression system yourself and deserve to be overthrown.

Absolutely 100% agree . I’m listening to the audiobook of now and I thought some parts of the book really summed up that attitude. I see it as the movement into the gray, mass produced everything’s terrible unfeeling zog world. There are lots of mentions in that book about “freezing history at a single point in time” which I think is the goal here. The pendulum must swing one more time, and then stop forever. I love history because it shows amazing human achievement and curiosities, surprises of being human. Lefties history reduces every event to the exact same formula of constant oppression and liberation that is visible today, so everything we learn about is simultaneously a worthy victory in the fight for progress and also a futile attempt to change the fundamental unfairness of life (1984 jorjor well double think).
Of course the people of high society think progress and improvement should be impossible, it is no surprise that historical events have been reduced to this. If people on the bottom of society ever learned that it were possible to improve, innovate and change, they would immediately overthrow their government and put in a new one or something something 1984 Big Brother

I live in a pretty red state and 7th grade was almost entirely dedicated to the 1800's. They did a good job at showcasing how dispicable slavery was, but they never tried to link it to yts today. I don't know why this was suddenly not acceptable and had to be reformed.

I think economic reasons. The forever war picked up hard, especially on the “home front” post 9/11. Someone found a better strategy to get people in a fighting mood and motivated, and this is it. Much easier to do that when you make it okay to assign blame to people and label them as inhuman enemies.

It's mostly that Redditors didn't pay attention in school, so they take second and third hand sources from their racist uncles or the kids who actually lived in bumfrick about teachers dismissing slavery as a curriculum. But state legislatures actually have a number of r-slurs who grew up in the thick of actual "the civil war was about states rights" and "slavery wasn't that bad for a lot of slaves" propaganda.
I only got a taste of that in school and from relatives, but with my generation it was all accompanied by more reasonable qualifiers like "but slavery was pretty much the main state right" and "but it was still slavery and that was bad", and that was a while ago. Libwokes and leftoids have such a hardon for the bad old days.
There really are a few places you're still fighting in the name of radical centrism to just teach about slavery and racism as is, without either apologia or self flagellation. And that's all the excuse wingcucks need.
I want to see one of these people get torn apart by a redneck tweaker and a black crackhead like T rexes did that one guy in Jurassic park.

Its unironically such a weird thing. I heard common consensus was slavery wasnt a benefit to america, so not only was it cruel it was useless, yet i constantly hear “black people built this country” like no they didnt lol. Because then that would JUSTIFY slavery in a machievillian way. Like its so strange to hear this stuff employed to stamp out class conciousness and blame the working class for the ills of the upper class that are now ironically pushing the people who want to demoralize the lower classes as racist for not being born into the privellege of affording job security, education, better living standards yet are also born with the privellege of looking like the majority of the people who are born in the country

Slavery would have directly hurt low-skilled worker mayos by driving their wages down.
Institutional racism was a tool of the ruling class, as social and economic control over both blacks and whites. Poor blacks had it worse, but the system was not designed to help poor whites.

Arguably us Eastern Euros actually got hurt by it - bongs and frogs had income that we just didn't have, allowing them to invest it locally while we had to rely on our own production while remaining competitive (because they sure as frick weren't going to leave us alone).

It depends on what you consider CRT. I think Libs believe (or portray it as) CRT being just the teaching the history of slavery. Which I would be willing to bet more than 99% of schools already do this (With some variation between schools)
Actual CRT deals with teaching about systematic racism. A term so broad and elusive that people use it as a way to describe how mayo supremacy infiltrates all aspects of life. Some advocates of CRT will use it to blame all of the problems minorities face on mayos (based)

What a load of nonsense. The East India Company was one of the most powerful and influential organizations in the world during its time. It was responsible for the establishment of British rule in India and played a large role in global trade. The company's army was twice the size of the British Royal Army and its influence was felt throughout the world. The company's anti-slavery campaigns were well-funded and well-organized, and its workers were paid relatively well compared to other workers in the company's towns.
