I do not react to CRT because I went through a similar racial "sensitivity" training during the Clinton years (early 1990s). Senior management was pressured to place minorities and women in many positions they were neither educated for nor experienced at. I actually started feeling sorry for many of the "victims" because they were good people who were made to look stupid because they were in way over their heads. My takeaway at the time, and present day attitude: when the SHTF, it all boils down to Meritocracy. If my nuclear plant is having a meltdown, I don't want a sociologist dealing with it. If I'm designing a new bridge, I don't want a community organizer calculating the loads. I don't have anything against any professional discipline, but we all have a "best fit" place in the sun to shine. In my experience, within two years, all of the "misplaced" folks had moved on to more compatible jobs.

<<AT&T’s CEO, John Stankey>> It's a fashion amongst challenged CEO's at the moment. These pos already know what they are, so using divisive techniques to sow disagreement. It seems to be working like a charm. The BBC is right on it. They even announce it. Critical race theory: the concept dividing the US - BBC News All the usual suspects are at it. Math Suffers From White Supremacy, According to a Bill Gates-Funded Course (newsweek.com) Soros and co. have woven in antisemitism as well, I wonder where he learned to sow such deceit? No, George Soros doesn’t control school boards – The Forward I have read Popper. I think his views on science is enlightened. Soros somehow misinterpreted the formula... Popper believed that open societies—characterized as non-authoritarian, transparent and open to diverse voices—were the best guarantee against totalitarianism. The Vilification of George Soros In Israel (momentmag.com) Today we are in an over controlled, authoritarian & globally censored society. As it's controlled by big biz, it is Fascist rather than Communist, it is definitely Totalitarian as I see it.. It's definitely not what Popper had in mind. The human race suffers badly from philanthropists who arrived at fortunes from behaviour that is anything but being a civilized human being. I would cite Bill Gates and Soros as the poster boys of such people. A harder look into their backgrounds makes me want to throw up, but maybe I am over sensitive or imagining too much. I don't trust either of them. The plethora of information available, and their actions to date, makes both of them highly suspect.
