Speaking of Critical Race Theory, remember that one time Texas anti-wokies banned Jerry Craft's Newbery Medal winning children's book, without anyone even reading it? The extent of critical race theory in the book is (*checks notes*) the main character is black.

That sure owned the libs.

That is so gross. Shame on them for hiding behind the label of wokism to further their racist agenda.

The latest nonsense was blaming the failure of SVB on “woke policies.”

The 11-year-old boy spoke up against pornographic material in his middle school and demanded that the officials be held accountable. In order to fight the groomers present inside the woke movement, we will need more good, moral young guys like these.
The book he was protesting teaches boys how to suck the penis of another boy. State and federal legislation forbid the ownership and distribution of child pornography, but it appears that if the pornography is deemed acceptable by the woke grooming agendites, it is acceptable to expose minors to sexual content.

Only the dumbest of the dumb thinks this kid isn't being used and "groomed" by his parents to pull this stunt. He's 11, the book is for 14 and older, so why is he checking that book out at all unless he was instructed to by someone who saw him as a useful pawn in their idiotic political games?

The book is called Nick and Charlie and it got overwhelmingly 5 star reviews. The only 1 star reviews are from a few people whining about the so called "pornography" which they only heard about from Right Wing propaganda. They never actually read the book. A book which is not in any sense part of the school curriculum, it is just a book that found its way into a library. Libraries receive donated books by the hundreds all the time.

In any event, how does this have anything to do with "wokeness?" You idiots on the right literally define woke as anything you don't like.

No, it doesn’t teach that.

Boy, has this become true. It's basically sharing the load with the word liberal.

ETA: The thing is, the opposite of woke is asleep, and if there's one thing the right is resistant to do, it's to wake the “F” up. They watch Fox and other right wing echo heads because they want to be lied to. They only listen to what they want to hear.

And yet they seem to have a problem being called stupid. That's pretty weird. If you're going to accept lies because that's all you want to hear and you resist facts, you have to expect you're going to be an ignorant moron.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.
