    So what if DEI has links to Marxists? Marxist sociology isn’t inherently incorrect.

    CRT is a law school technique for determining the impact of laws ok populations. Im not sure why that would be Marxist.

      Well, Stalin for example very famously stole from the middle class, or kulaks, made their houses into hostels for the very poor, and then put the middle class people to death via gulags.

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulak

      Any system which judges people as others to be exploited and killed isn’t any better than right-wing authoritarianism.

      Authoritarianism is fucked up, doesn’t matter if it’s left or right.

      Edit, even if you look at China and Vietnam as current examples, they are both hardly exemplary towards LGBT or minority rights. Hardliner Marxists would also say they’re too capitalist.

      Edit some connections between CRT and Marxism, both are tools for Neo-Marxists

        Ok that doesn’t have anything to do with DEI though. DEI is the idea that hiring a more diverse group of executives and employees will yield more profits. The USSR wouldn’t institute DEI.

          While I wholeheartedly agree with unbiased, fair and equal employment access and treatments, DEI has a more global agenda via Neo-Marxist ideology

          There’s nothing wrong with countries helping out other countries! I honestly want more of that. I just sincerely dislike the Neo-Marxist mindset that it’s okay to dismantle someone else’s home country to help out their own.

          Edit also, if you consider the U.S. history with regional destabilization of LatAm countries, there are a lot of ghosts here which are coming back to haunt the US. No one has clean hands, historically.

            Neither of those sources are good. James Lindsay is a propagandist and has no credibility in social sciences at all. He could not be a valid source much like my niece who is 3 cannot be a good source because neither has any education or experience that would suggest they know what they are talking about.

            Your assertion that Marxism has anything to do with DEI seems to be unsupported.

                The second source immedeately quotes the “black book of communism” on its death toll. Holy shit, you actually believe the “cultural marxist” shit?

                Your first source doesn’t reject DEI and talks about how Marxists shouldn’t reject the definition of white supremacy the analytical technique uses. It has notging to do with your claim.

                Yoyr second source is a NYpost article that the Manhattan institute’s webpage is hosting.

                Im going to stop you here and point out that all of your sources are either not supporting your claim or are biased trash tier.

                It really seems like you don’t actually know what either of these things are and are just spitting nonsensical talking points handed tp you from right wing sources.

                Maybe consider learning why CRT isn’t something you needed to worry about or even know about (again it’s an analytical technique created fir law school students) or what DEI is. Maybe avoid right wing propaganda sources when learning about them.

                  I suggest using google scholar and looking up some stuff yourself with keywords, it’s not my job to educate you. I posted easy and accessible articles on purpose, but there is a lot of academic material available that’s harder to parse for shitpost reading.

                    Why would you think I should follow the same steps you did when the results you returned were of such incredibly poor quality? Did you think these things had something to do with Marxism and look for evidence to support that or did you actually believe these sources to begin with? If it is the second one take a minute to learn what Marxism is because you clearly are very confused as to what it means (right-wing US sources are terrible for what is and is not Marxism).
