America went from the freest country in the world in December 2019 to a repressive and frightening place by July 2021. How did that happen?

What you don’t get is that old wht men, when backed into identifying with their rac/ial group, will win any competition for resources. Identity politicians are picking a fight that they cannot win in the long run. You should have stuck with universalism. That was your only winning play. And you blew it.

Let me guess, you're a u/s/e/l/e/s/s w/h/i/t/e c/u/c/k who will never publish and thinks he didn't get the Harvard job because papa tuc.ker said "ReVeRsE rA.c.IsM" is a thing. WTG on prox.ying 3 down.votes in 60 seconds.
You admit to being a diversity hire, meaning you admit that you only got your job because of your skin color, even though you've never had to do real work at anytime in your life, then you deny that whites who work harder than you and are smarter than you are subjected to racial discrimination in academia?

Actually I would argue Kendi is more intelligent than Crenshaw based on their writings, even though I strongly disagree with both of them.
It's amusing to watch white liberals pretend that Crenshaw is some sort of brilliant theorist. Actually the fact that Crenshaw believed she was coming up with any sort of new "theory" at all just by discussing demographic interaction effects shows how her thought process, reading level, and accumulated knowledge are just not at any particularly advanced level. Crenshaw has contributed absolutely nothing to human intellectual history, and she's openly presented as the kept house pet of the white oligarchy.
Kendi at least in limited terms presents a brutally simplistic praxis that has its own brilliance, in a way -- retaliate for past discrimination by engaging in present discrimination against whites -- and somehow is able to make that prescription palatable to many of the people who would be most harmed by it.
"Intersectionality" is basically meaningless, or in practical terms it just amounts just to people chanting names of identity categories. Look at any black woman in American sociology.

America went from the freest country in the world in December 2019 to a repressive and frightening place by July 2021. How did that happen?The USA was ranked right on the border of democracy/flawed democracy. It has not been the freest country in the world ever, according to every index I have seen. Democratic backsliding has been happening here and most liberal democracies for many years.

made it two paragraphs
Above your reading level? Go back to your Kendi and Crenshaw.
lol seriously why do ppl think we think Kendi is some kind of oracle?It's the sort of thing that happens when you are furious at sociology and wokeness, but know absolutely nothing about the former.
