Please Just Fucking Tell Me What Term I Am Allowed to Use for the Sweeping Social and Political Changes You Demand

Please Just Fucking Tell Me What Term I Am Allowed to Use for the Sweeping Social and Political Changes You Demand - FREDDIE DEBOER

• you don't get to insist that no one talks about your political project and it's weak and pathetic that you think you do

 

"......woke, it’s a “dogwhistle” for racism. (The term “dogwhistle” is a way for people to simply impute attitudes you don’t hold onto you, to make it easier to dismiss criticism, for the record.) 

• But the same people say there’s no such thing as political correctness, and they also say identity politics is a bigoted term. 

So I’m kind of at a loss. 

• Also, they propose sweeping changes to K-12 curricula, but you can’t call it CRT, even though the curricular documents specifically reference CRT, and if you do you’re an idiot and also you’re a racist cryptofascist. 
• Also nobody (nobody!) ever advocated for defunding the police, and if they did it didn’t actually mean defunding the police. 

Seems to be a real resistance to simple, comprehensible terms around here...
