Jailing people for being homeless is a classic American policy: stupid, brutal, and very expensive.

If you consider criminalizing poverty and expanding the power of for profit prison productive, then it was productive as fuck.

So it's just slavery again ... 😑

It’s only slavery if it comes from the Ndongo region of West Central Africa. Otherwise it’s just sparkling race-based internships.

That's CRT, you can't post that, it might be read by a teenager in a Florida or Texas school.  *cynicism* Seriously, to be most accurate it is a systematically race-biased and class-based internship. This displays the propagation of systematic racism properly.

The unwritten bias is based on both race and class, with the written bias being based on class, and class being already biased on race.  This propagates the class bias based on race. It is all one big self-justifying feedback loop.

The fact the you can do a quick overview on how CRT applies to a modern society without race-based laws in two paragraphs means that republicans have to be stupid not to understand it or claim it's "anti-white propaganda".

BTW, I doubt you need the overview, but I thought it was useful for other readers. It is very important we make sure people know what Critical Race Theory actually means.

CRT? That’s Woke, ain’t it? 🤣

Woke AF, and that's a GOOD thing, something else we should explain.

It's awfully sad that we have to point this out, but at least the shit-show is amusing.

The right doesn't misunderstand CRT, they just use it as a bogeyman to scare people who are terrified of black people, but might have some sort of moral qualm against chanting "White Power!" Critical Race Theory's sound has such convenient sharp edges that they can claim it is whatever they want.

They use DEI the same way. Broken down into components it becomes a million times less scary, and they want it to be scary. CRT and DEI are so easy to misunderstand because they are desperate to misunderstand it.
