Critical Race Theory and Other Gobbledygook

I'm not sure which category this one belongs in, so bear with me if I guessed wrong.
I was reading the NV article "Let Us Dare to Speak" which like every article on NV is full of useful information. It definitely was easier to digest than the previous times I've tried to learn about Critical Race Theory on my own (Wikipedia and the opposition themselves). Still, it was a long article filled with the opposition's never-ending rape of truth, logic, reason, and reality, as well as their own precious equality. I had to take a break from it. The insanity of it makes my head spin.
I've had a virtually identical experience when I've tried to study the writing of various communists the better to understand that enemy. Even though I'm a brighter-than-average fellow, I've found everything that communists write to be pure gibberish. To my mind, it's not so much that what they say is wrong, it's more that it has no meaning whatsoever. The same experience occurred when I was studying to be a teacher. My attempts to read my textbooks on current educational theory gave me a headache as the books said absolutely nothing, and said it at great length. (One surprised teacher asked me incredulously, "You're actually reading it?")
In the article I read one self-nullifying statement after the other. Apparently freedom of speech is so important that it must be severely restricted and those that take the right too seriously must be punished. It reminds me of the Michael Malone character from the movie "An American Carol". "I love America, that's why it must be destroyed." I'm inclined to think that a mind that can think these thoughts without bursting into flames is a mind that is far beyond redemption. I've never had the misfortune to debate a CRT proponent and I'm glad of it. I'm not sure how to counter an argument that has it's basis in madness as opposed to anything even approximating reality.

Happy you liked the article! Let me tell you, my fingers were raw after typing it all out, so I'm glad my effort wasn't in vain.
It shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that their logic (or lack thereof) is hard to follow. I'm sure they all suffer from some form of cognitive dissonance, unless the indoctrination has done too much damage and has fried their brains entirely.
I've had my fair share of debating with these types of people. Perhaps debating is the improper word, as no matter how politely I put my argument, they always got so mad they would verbally (or in some rare cases, physically) attack me -- as if I'm attacking them personally instead of their opinion. They really do believe that they're taking the morally high ground. They claim they want to let in x thousand "refugees" into their country, yet don't volunteer to invite them into their house. Much like children, they react solely on emotion and throw logic right out the window.
You can't have a debate with someone who cannot be reasoned with.

Oh, joyous day! Thanks for the response. I've been asked to contribute to the forum regularly, but sometimes it seems that few are listening.
Engaging the opposition in their various forms is distasteful at best and it's tempting to just let them rant as we usually have better things to do. Plus, the old social injunction that one "never discusses religion or politics" has traditionally held us back. That brought us some temporary peace of mind, but it was a colossal mistake I think because the opposition never shuts up and then another old-saying comes into play: Silence implies consent.
I know I'm preaching to the choir about these things, but I've only over the last few years stopped letting the insanity go unchallenged. I'm still a little taken aback by the sheer foaming-at-the-mouth psychological projection that's hurled my way. Their ability to go from zero to hysterical rage in 3 milliseconds is staggering and unsettling at first. You're quite right that they are lost causes and probably have been since the cradle, but as is said, debate is a spectator sport. My only regret these days is that the number of spectators isn't greater.
I haven't been physically attacked yet, but I'm sure my time is coming. I work with a multitude of mestizos whom I've traditionally indulged in the past. One of them hung the moniker "Mr. White Folks" on me, to everyone's great amusement. The grand "joke" being that I was the whitest white guy they had ever met. The embodiment of every stereotype of white people. I was a good sport about it for a while, but it began to rub me the wrong way and one day I snapped back, "That's the thing to be." There were a few gasps, then dead silence, then angry muttering, but I never heard those words again.
Good things happen when we dare to speak.

Oh man, thanks for the laugh

. It really is unfortunate that in this day and age,
they can make fun of us, but
we aren't supposed to stand up for ourselves. I luckily don't work with any non-Whites, but there have been a few instances when I've said in passing that "it ain't right if it ain't White" on the job and my co-workers' expressions could only be described as a cross between shock and horror. They'll learn in time.

It is extremely important to remember this. As you mentioned earlier, the opposition never shuts up. I implore all of you to talk about the real issues we're facing today, and how the Alliance aims to fix it. Even if you only talk to close friends and sympathetic family members, you never know what might get the gears turning in someone's head. If you're afraid of the social (and potentially legal, depending on your jurisdiction/country) repercussions, just put up some N.A. fliers or hand them out to passerby. I've plastered a few dozen fliers around my nearest city, and although most don't last 12 hours, I'd like to think that I piqued some people's curiosity into our organization.

You don't work with any non-Whites? How did you pull that off in this day and age? I know that there are pockets of sanity here and there, but they're getting pretty rare. We're the minority in the town where I live, and in the entire state as well. I'm kind of torn because I have a really good job, but I know realistically it will become impossible to live here long before I can hope to retire. In an ironic twist, it's not just White people that are getting squeezed here. Mestizos whose families have lived here for 5 or 6 generations are increasingly at risk, especially those that have completely assimilated. The incoming illegals hold a particular antipathy towards their kinsmen who've "sold out." It is relatively common for their children to be assaulted when one of the "diverse, vibrant youths" discover that they can't speak Spanish. Outrageously, such things are increasingly regarded as "regrettable, but understandable."
Regarding your "it ain't right if it ain't White" quip. My younger brother used to delight in telling mixed-race people (which are abundant here) that "if you're half White, you're half right." Of course, he denies it today and gets upset if you mention it. I've come to the unhappy realization that the opposition no longer needs to censor us, because we've become so whipped that we do it ourselves. I've taken to conducting free speech experiments with some unpleasant results. We've reached some kind of undesirable tipping-point because I've found that, even when no non-Whites are present, free speech is curtailed. Usually, subconsciously I think, nobody wants to waste valuable private time talking about them. However, even when in a group of pure WASPs like me, if someone mentions another group at least one person will angrily censure them. Even worse, if that group is the Chosen Ones, even a neutral comment results in the entire group pouncing on the offender in outrage. What well-trained poodles we've become.
Regarding speaking up, one of the main reasons I chose this group was that it has a history of being proactive. I believe the age when "education and outreach" would have been sufficient is long gone--if it existed at all. I'm working to get a feel for what's possible locally. We're badly outnumbered here and I'm sure overt action would be at least metaphorically suicidal--if not literally so. For now, I challenge ever instance of hypocrisy and double standards that I encounter. It's very unpopular.

Thanks for doing that Martin. You did a great job.
