There is a big shake up now that President Trump decided that pushing Marxism through the public schools and colleges, is no longer acceptable when they use public funds. The call to end DEI in colleges and schools across the country has some people upset. (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion)
Equity means taking resources or materials and redistributing them to groups so that there are equal outcomes. Equity is really about Neo-Socialism. Neo-Socialists use Neo-Marxist theory to create a redistribution system. But inequity is part of the human condition. I do not have the skill, height or body type to play in the NBA. I can never play in the NFL either. If we wanted equity in sports, then someone would have to force me into that position. Equality of outcome cannot be done outside of tyranny.
Everything in school is drilled down to identity now–mainly by race and sex. For those pushing this Marxist viewpoint based on race, this is what is called anti-racism. Where you fight racism with racism.
This didn’t work in Zimbabwe, or any place where this approach is used. It leads to devastation for those who oppose the revolution, and revolutionaries. Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe adopted Marxist and Maoist views.
Beginning in 2000, he encouraged the takeover of white-owned commercial farms, leading to economic collapse and runaway inflation. Zimbabwe’s commercial farming collapsed, triggering years of hyperinflation and food shortages that created a nation of impoverished billionaires.
They have not recovered from the Communist liberation that Mugabe waged in the name of liberating the black indigenous people. This is the pattern in history, and it leads to blood and war. This was a struggle against colonialism but led to an economic devastation for an entire country.
In the US, UCLA law professor Cheryl Harris proposed suspending private property rights, seizing land and wealth, and redistributing them along racial lines.
In Seattle, the school district told white teachers that they are guilty of “spirit murder” against black children and must “bankrupt” their privilege in acknowledgement of their thrived inheritance.
In Springfield, Missouri, a middle school forced teachers to locate themselves on an “oppression matrix,” based on the idea that straight, white, English-speaking Christian males are members of the oppressor class and must atone for their privilege and “covert white supremacy.”
In Cupertino, CA, an elementary school forced first-graders to deconstruct their racial and sexual identities, and rank themselves according to their “power and privilege.”
That sounds similar to what Manchester was doing with their power and privilege assignment. It’s the same radical political viewpoint forced on an unsuspecting audience who hasn’t studied history. Marxists punish those who work hard and succeed. Look at how many schools have removed the Valedictorian from the graduation class. This political agenda has already taken root in many of our schools.
But there is a way for Marxists to fulfill their utopia in spite of Trump’s directive. All they have to do is redistribute their success and wealth. They can even resign from a prestigious position that they themselves would characterize as oppressive. They can give their time and talent to organizations impacted by this order, and they can sell off their wealth and redistribute it to the people they believe are oppressed.
Why don’t they do this? Why are they always preaching about this Marxist political ideology but you don’t see them practicing it? All they have to do is turn over their wealth, and donate it all to the oppressed. Yet they don’t.
