Is the Nackey Loeb School Ruing the Day It Gave Robert Azzi its First Amendment Award?

CRT – Their Goal Is Indoctrinating Students in Far-Left Causes: Stack of Stuff Part 8
These keep pouring in. Examples that show Critical Race Theory not just as Racist but the push back from those that see the racisim scam. That CRT deliberately divides us along the very racial lines that the Civil Rights movement sought to eliminate.

So We’re Supposed to be as Empathic to Bots as We are to Humans? This Lady Philosopher is nuts!
These Artificial Intelligence researchers are demanding that we show their A.I. bots empathy, reciprocity, and trust and don’t understand why we humans refuse to do so. They are like Bruce Currie (Bernie-Bro and (seemingly former) frequent ‘Grok commenter) who insisted that he could lay obligations on the rest of us that matched his obligation to … Read more

Palate Cleanser – and Speaking of Culture…
It’s clear that Progressives are, in general, angrier about more things than Conservatives. I don’t understand this other than having a Savior complex in which EVERY STUPID thing has to be taken as a crisis and everyone besides themselves and their SJW-wrapped-up ideological kin must be made into second or third class citizens (if not demoted to evil subhumans).
Saturday Overnight Thread – The “Identifying Yourself as Someone Eligible for ‘Lead Vaccination’ ” Edition
