I find it amusing to watch all the howling, singing and cussing of the progressive left in response to Trump's initiatives. It is always easier to react emotionally than to argue an intelligent rebuttal in dialogue with your adversary. Of course the reason is that DEI is the old racism (as are the arguments made for illegal immigration) wrapped in a package to make one feel good. I also find it ironic that modern Marxism is embraced largely by the academic and capitalist "elites" to the detriment of the working classes of all skin colors.

"DEI is the old racism (as are the arguments made for illegal immigration) wrapped in a package to make one feel good." Yes! And ironic is a nicer word than demonic, which is what it truly is....

nobody is responsible for what happened BEFORE ones BIRTH. The lucky ones have 2 good loving parents, mother and father of TWO DIFFERENT genders, in all colors, the less happy ones are mixed up in the tube or born within the inbreeding society.....;( But the Chinese are champions on many things, most recent one:"Chinese scientists created mice with 2 dads — and they survived to adulthood"

I'm not sure what you mean. All the authors I quoted are highly intelligent and informed. And the facts of Vermont rates of WIC benefits are.... facts. Do you agree all people who are eligible for benefits should receive them without regard to skin color?

“Racism” has existed forever, for at least since the times of Isaac and Ishmael. DEI and wokeism is just a way for the con artists to profit from it.

And create racial strife and murders in the process. It is disgusting!! I spent my whole life fighting racism and now they are recklessly sabotaging true progress. More and more blacks and Hispanics are on to them, though.

Within a few more generations I wonder if any of this will matter considering the inclination of young white females towards relationships with young black males. I have seen more mixed race babies than ever being born which could mean that, if this trend continues, within a few generations there may no longer be any distinction between the white and black races. Distinct racial blood lines may no longer exist. I wonder if this will finally put an end the racism that currently extends from both sides. Just a thought.

I used to think that interracial marriage was the only hope to one day end racism... But I see plenty of hope short of that.

You can't believe everything you see on TV. What I mean is I don't think there is any advertisement out there that doesn't have a bi racial couple in it. Statically this is impossible. There aren't enough blacks. However if one uses the metrics that all these social justice people use, biracial people are not white with a black parent, but just plain old black. Look at Obama and Kamala. As Morgan Freeman said - we have not had our first black president yet. Obama is biracial not black. Kamala the same. She has an Indian mother and a Jamaican dad and yet she is considered black. But men can give birth now so what am I carrying on for? and 2 + 2 only equals 4 if you want exact change.

I am in my seventies and probably only notice the number of bi-racial babies because I come from a generation where is was so rare. I will however put some hope in them that they can be a bridge between the races. It is a very different world than the one I grew up in...and that is not always good or bad. Mostly just mind boggling. Nice that we can still get the proper change...I don't know how long that will last however....there is all of that new math stuff.....

The brainwashing has been in the works for some time now. When it first reared its ugly head I thought nothing of it. It was just silly talk. I remember my son back in 2014 talking about what he was learning in class concerning racism. I asked him if he was racist? and he said no. and I said well I'm not either. No one can be so presumptuous as to name another man's perspective. It doesn't work that way. I said what he is learning sounds racist and he said, oh no mom we are the oppressors so we can't experience racism. I told him that was ridiculous and the conversation ended there. I had no idea we'd still be talking about such nonsense nearly a decade later. I'm so glad to see that DEI at BU being cancelled and Ibram X. Kendi whatever being tossed to the curb and called out a fake. Man they put a lot of money told that fool.
