“White People, You Are the Problem” by Christopher Rufo

On the other hand ....

- How AT&T helped build far-right One America News: A Reuters Special Report by John Shiffman in San Diego, Reuters, Oct. 6, 2021: "As it lauded former President Donald Trump and spread his unfounded claims of election fraud, One America News Network saw its viewership jump. Reuters has uncovered how America’s telecom giant nurtured the news channel now at the center of a bitter national divide over politics and truth."

- AT&T Is Bankrolling the Network That Championed Trump’s Big Lie, “White History Month”, by Caleb Ecarma, Vanity Fair, October 6, 2021: "A new report lays bare the financial relationship between AT&T and One America News, the network that makes Fox look tame."

these things should be preserved in a time capsule with anything else worthy of saving from AT&T

trolling with moronic BS and working with the moronic dea.

CRT ole good Marxism, reheated. Strong racist flavour added, to hide original taste of doom.

And......big surprise....the author is from the Manhatten Institute.

I find it amusing when right wing think tanks produce "journals" as if that makes their propaganda appear like "peer reviewed research"

I'll take what Rufo says with more than a grain of salt.

AT &T racial sensitivity training is stock standard across major corporations. The author will have you believe that AT&T is going "woke". Again "white privilege" in the United States is as real as blue skies and red sunsets in summer, Nothing to see here folks.

The American Psychological Association (APA) have accepted for some time the definition is correct.

According to Prof Brian Lowrey (who is an associate dean of the prestigious Stanford Business School)

"American society is structured in a way to hide white privilege that people benefit from. So you can see this in obvious ways, for example, segregation. Very few white folks in America actually have black friends. And many fewer live in circumstances where they see the disadvantages or the racial inequity in our system. So that segregation allows for people to be remain blind to their own advantages because they don't see the disadvantages that exist. They don't see the racial inequities. They blind themselves to the racial inequities simply by the way they go about their daily lives. They don't have to make a conscious choice to ignore it so much as it's hidden from them by the way the society is set up. So that's one way that you get herd invisibility. And then each individual act that white people engage in to deny or distance actually serves the broader white community, in that if I deny it exists and I create a narrative that it doesn't exist, then that serves you, even if you aren't actively denying it yourself."

So by ascribing identification of "white privilege" as a form of reverse racism is actually a form of denial that white privilege exists. This type of herd invisibility ironically works with disability as well. When people prefer not to see disabled people in public they can pretend disability does not exist.

Racial sensitivity training is standard because....drum roll.....it's evidence based. Big organisations want to maximise what they can get from a diverse workforce and creating a harmonious workplace starts with making sure there is no favouritism or elitism or discrimination leading to a drop in productivity which....hits the company's bottom line.

So the left has no propaganda machines, journals, or magazines? Be real clear.

Attacking the media does not debunk the word.


IIRC, the AT&T was one of the last pieces he published.

Rufo is like a magician who tells you exactly how he's going to fool you, and then gets you to fall for it anyway, and by "you" I mean liberals.



He's incredibly transparent about what he's doing, and yet it keeps working, amazing! That, and he's got a huge repository of documents various whistleblowers have sent him, so when the inevitable claims are made that he's somehow spinning how awful these programs are, he has the receipts to back them up, often on the company/school district/local government letterhead no less.

whistleblowers from AT&T?

The Manhattan Institute seem to be obsessed with CRT
