The Evolution of “Woke”
He may be an acquired taste but J.P. Sears has a very laid-back way of presenting his unique sense of political satire and this time, he lets the rest of us know how he defines it. Dictionary.com has its definition.
New National Group against “Wokeness” in Public Schools
Over at Powerline, I just came aware of a new group that the Left is going to really hate a lot – a group, Free to Learn, that is saying “No, not OUR Children”: The Free to Learn Coalition advocates for classrooms independent of political influence.

CRT – How Will You Know If Critical Race Theory Is Taught in Your Child’s School? – Stack of Stuff Part 16
So, do you REALLY think that your School Board, the Superintendent, or the teachers are ALL going to be truthful if you simply ask “Are you teaching CRT?”
Notable Quote – The Answer as to WHY is Ideology
Who does this on a regular basis unless it is purposeful to place a Big Lie into the subconscious of the American People? To drive home a perception that is created for one and only one purpose?
Interview: The Owner of “Simply Delicious Bakery,” Talks about Being Fined for Not Mandating Masks

A Question for you all – WHAT topics do you want to hear about?
At one of our recently completed GrokMeetups, one of the suggestions for “What do you want us to do?” was the idea of doing some 5-minute videos – either on a topic or interviews (like our “Micro-interviews” we do at events.
Senior Citizens Put AARP on Notice – You Are Out of Touch with Mainstream America
Not a single person at their booths, at the time, would be willing to engage in debate as to WHY this organization (AARP), supposedly oriented towards American Seniors, would advocate for a program which, at the time, would take money from Medicare to fund (in part) Obamacare.
Still Waiting For Flying Machines and a Viable Electric-Conveyance
I’ve been waiting for those personal flying machines since Edgar Rice Burrows wrote in the 1950s about the “9th ray.” And again, since the 1970s for an electric car that might be better, and more cost-efficient than the internal combustion engine (ICE).
Hillsborough County Republican Committee Full-Auto Machine Gun Shoot
This ought to be a blast! The Hillsborough County Republican Committee’s Third Annual Machine Gun Shoot!
Freaking “Tail-Wagging-the-Dog”-ers! Make them learn The Apprentice’s famous phrase: “You’re Fired!”
Honest to goodness – WHO do these teachers and their union heads think they are? They act like queens but they’re just our employees. But how much of a hassle have they given Parents over the last or so?
Answer? They want money: “Young Granite Staters face barriers to civic involvement”
What a bunch of whiners. I’ve had this in my stack of stuff since the middle of May and I’m just as annoyed now as I was then. And this guy, Manny Espitia (of course, he’s a Democrat – another Bernie-Bro), makes the title above absolutely clear (reformatted, emphasis mine): He said already, employers as … Read more
Friday Open Thread – So now the Feds are going to door knock you to get The Jab?
We’re being led by the dumbest and schmuckiest. Even though this is for you, here’s a discussion starter: HHS Secretary Becerra just said that because of the billions the Federal Government has spent in developing a vaccine to save us, it ABSOLUTELY is “Government’s business” to know why you are taking the Jab.

I met up with NHGOP RNC Committeeman Chris Ager Wednesday night at an event and asked if he had much news to relay back to GraniteGrok readers. Apparently, Critical Race Theory (CRT) is not just a grassroots issue.
“Socialism Is a Good Idea, but It Has Failed in the past Because It Has Been Badly Done” …
“It turns out that there is a lot of truth to the stereotype of the woke socialist millennial/Zoomer. The overwhelming majority of young people really do express stridently anti-capitalist views across a broad range of issues.
Connecticut Newspaper calls Parents “KKK” – Stack of Stuff Part 15
Way to go Hartford Courant. When losing, call yourself a victim and demonize your opposition (behind a paywall) instead of, you know, debating CRT’s premise that one group of people ALWAYS oppresses another simply because of skin color.
He’s Right, You Know: “The Left’s ‘Standard Drill’ for Every Issue”
After intensely watching the Left for over a decade and a half, he is right with “he” being Steven Hayward over at Powerline. Hayward has completed a book in which he quotes a section of M. Stanton Evens book where he gives an example of how the Left always operates:
Data Point – “The Rot in Higher Education”
Sadly, even this chart shows it. The Left is beginning to go after those subjects that have been presumed “objective” when compared to the “soft” departments where “feelings” seem to count more than Right Answer / Wrong Answer:
DISQUS Doodlings – They Have No Idea of the Consequences and Ramifications…Part 2
Yep, back to Treehugger and the end of shopping. Pretty much, places like Dollar General and the like would be toast – can’t buy cheap stuff (gosh, would that mean the end of Chinese manufacturing? Jus’ spitballing here)? Recap: reformatted, emphasis mine:
Data Point – Temperatures Are Heading Downward After Being Upward. They Change!
I think this chart shows what most Conservatives, even as we are painted akin to religious deniers by the Eco-Socialists, actually believe – climate changes. All the time. Epochal changes between warming periods and Ice Ages.
