Culture critic: Critical Race Theory Gaslighters<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u201ccounterrevolution\u201d against critical race theory has \u201cexploded,\u201d and its defenders are trying to protect it by pushing a \u201ckind of political quietism \u2014 since you don\u2019t know what CRT is, how can you struggle against it?\u201d observes Hugo Gurdon at the Washington Examiner<\/a>. The idea is to \u201cmake CRT opponents question their understanding and doubt the evidence of their own ears and eyes.\u201d Yet critics do know what CRT is: \u201cIt\u2019s the unfalsifiable assertion of racial essentialism, stigmatizing white people as irredeemably racist and privileged, and black people as systematically repressed. It is used to poison the minds of children down to the elementary school level.\u201d Those who \u201cpretend CRT is an obscure academic discipline don\u2019t know or don\u2019t care about the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

From the right: Texas Cry-Babies<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe fugitive Texas Democrats are vain, self-promoting cry-babies,\u201d declares William Murchison at The Spectator World<\/a>. The legislators fled the Lone Star State to block a Republican election-reform bill that \u201cdoesn\u2019t even make voting hard.\u201d It \u201csets certain standards that were unduly relaxed during the pandemic when Harris County (Houston) improvised measures like drive-through voting and 24-hour voting.\u201d The Dems\u2019 \u201cjump to Washington, DC, is profoundly un-American\u201d: They \u201cjourneyed, showily, to the center of everything; the imperial capital. The media<\/a> in Washington give you attention that you wouldn\u2019t get otherwise.\u201d It\u2019s \u201ca telling commentary on the state of American politics\u201d when \u201conly one side \u2014 the progressive side \u2014\u201d is \u201cworthy of attention.\u201d<\/p>\n

From the left: Media Hysterics Boost Tucker<\/strong><\/p>\n

Matt Taibbi at TK News notes<\/a> all the media\u2019s scoffs when Fox News<\/a>\u2019 Tucker Carlson announced \u201cThe National Security Agency is monitoring our electronic communications\u201d and \u201cplanning to leak them in an attempt to take this show off the air\u201d were replaced by \u201cmore tortured rhetoric\u201d that still attacked him even after Axios ran a story app<\/a>arently based on just such a leak. \u201cAn extraordinarily rich recent history of illegal, politically directed leaks has gone mostly uncovered, in another glaring recent press failure that itself is part of this story\u201d \u2014 with the feds only punishing low-level leakers even as the high officials who dump dirt (often fake) to The Washington Post and The New York Times go unpunished. Bigger picture: \u201cThe prestige media\u2019s ham-handed, hysterical, anti-intellectual approach\u201d pushed voters to Donald Trump, and now it\u2019s boosting Carlson.<\/p>\n

Libertarian: Unmask Our Kids, Fauci!<\/strong><\/p>\n

In an MSNBC interview, virus guru Dr. Anthony Fauci insisted that even small kids should continue to wear masks, since they can contract COVID and spread it to vulnerable adults \u2014 but, counters Reason\u2019s Robby Soave<\/a>, \u201cthis is rapidly becoming an unpersuasive reason to require masks, given that all American adults who want to get a vaccine are basically able to do so, and 90 percent of the most vulnerable population \u2014 seniors \u2014 are already vaccinated.\u201d So it\u2019s increasingly unlikely \u201ca sick child would spread COVID-19 to someone who would be in serious danger of dying from it, unless this hypothetical person obstinately refused to take the vaccine. And in that case, it doesn\u2019t seem fair to continue to require children \u2014 who are not themselves particularly vulnerable to COVID-19 \u2014 to continue masking up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Business desk: Doomed Corporate Woke Moves<\/strong><\/p>\n

For some large corporations, woke politics is a way \u201cto divert attention\u201d from their \u201cmistreatment\u201d of customers, \u201cserious business problems\u201d and \u201csignificant evidence they\u2019ve exploited foreign labor,\u201d laments Will Hild at The Washington Times<\/a>. American Airlines denounced Texas legislation requiring voters to show some form of identification, which is \u201cbeyond bizarre given that ID is required to fly with American Airlines.\u201d Coca-Cola spoke out against similar legislation in Georgia while being \u201ccaught red-handed sourcing sugar from companies that benefit from Uyghur forced labor in China.\u201d Executives who weigh in on \u201cpolitical matters in which they have no expertise to distract from their own failures and mistreatment of customers are pursuing a doomed strategy.\u201d <\/p>\n
