NEW YORK TIMES
— Why Wokeness Will Fail – BRET STEPHENS (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to be woke is to be anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/opinion/social-justice-america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The problem with the allegation isn’t that it’s flatly wrong: America’s past is shot through with racism and, as Faulkner put it, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” But the allegation is also incomplete, distorted, ungenerous to former generations that advanced America’s promise, and untrue to the country most Americans know today. Wokeness operates as if there had been no civil rights movement, and that white Americans hadn’t been an integral part of it. It operates as if 60 years of affirmative action never happened, and that an ever-growing percentage of Black Americans don’t belong to the middle and upper class (and that they are, incidentally, concentrated in the American South). It operates as if we didn’t twice elect a Black president and recently bury a Black general as an American icon. It operates as if, in city after city, American police forces aren’t led by Black police chiefs and staffed by officers of diverse backgrounds. It operates as if white supremacy is still being systemically enforced, while ignoring the fact that a previously marginalized ethnic minority, namely Asian Americans, enjoys higher income levels than white Americans. Above all, Wokeness pretends that incidents such as George Floyd’s murder, which are national scandals, are actually national norms. They aren’t, despite current injustices. Most Americans, I suspect, not only sense the falseness of the allegation. They are, increasingly, insulted by it. The insult turns to injury when it comes to the solutions Wokeness prescribes, and in the way that it prescribes them. This doesn’t just mean efforts like “abolish the police” that are so baldly destructive that voters quickly sense their danger. It’s in subtler prescriptions, too.)

AUSTIN AMERICAN STATESMAN
— Democrats must confront their privilege – David Brooks (COMMENT: I should write a book about the success that Democrats and RINOs have had in taking over DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. Their success was shown last year by their tremendous promotion of LGBTQ in downtown Wheaton. Their success was show this year by their stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)
https://www.statesman.com/story/opinion/2021/11/09/brooks-democrats-must-confront-their-privilege/6337368001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Democratic Party’s core problems is that it still regards itself mainly as the party of the underdog. But as the information-age economy has matured, the Democratic Party has also become the party of the elite, especially on the cultural front. Democrats dominate society’s culture generators: the elite universities, the elite media, the entertainment industry, the big tech companies, the thriving elite places like Manhattan, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2020, Joe Biden won roughly one-sixth of the nation’s counties, but together those counties generate roughly 71% of the nation’s GDP. As the Democrats have become more culturally and economically dominant, many people at tippy-top private schools and super-expensive colleges have flamboyantly associated themselves with the oppressed. Thankfully, that has moved society to more aggressively pursue social and racial justice. Unfortunately, a tacit ideology — sometimes called wokeness — has been grafted on to this pursuit. It includes the notions that society is essentially a zone of conflict between oppressor and oppressed groups, that a person’s identity is predominantly about group identity and that slavery is the defining fact of American history. Because they dominate the cultural commanding heights, including some departments of education and the largest teachers unions, progressive views permeate schools, museums, movies and increasingly the public stances of large corporations. The Republican Party, like many right-populist parties across the Western world, has become a giant vessel of resistance against cultural, urban and information-age elites. Glenn Youngkin, the Republican who was just elected governor of Virginia, expressed that resistance when he said, “I believe parents should be in charge of their kids’ education.” When Democrats seem to be magnifying the education establishment’s control of the classroom and minimizing the role of parents, there’s going to be a reaction. Some of the reaction is pure racism, but a lot of it is pushback against elite domination and the tacit ideology. The results of last Tuesday’s elections show again that resistance against the elites can be a powerful force propelling Republicans to victory. In the final weeks leading up to Youngkin’s victory, education became one of the top issues for Virginia voters. The results also put the Donald Trump phenomenon in a new perspective. Trump was necessary to smash the old GOP and to turn the party into a vanguard of anti-elite resistance. But by 2020, with his moral degradation and all the rest, he was also holding back Republicans. If Republicans can find candidates who oppose the blue oligarchy but without too much Trumpian baggage, they can win over some former Biden voters in places like Virginia and New Jersey. Democrats would be wise to accept the fact that they have immense social and cultural power, and accept the responsibilities that entails by adopting what I’d call a Whole Nation Progressivism. America is ferociously divided on economic, regional, racial and creedal lines. The job of leaders is to stand above these divides and seek to heal them. The job of leaders is not to impose their values on everyone else; it is to defend a pluralistic order in which different communities can work out their own values.)

They threw me off audits of IRS, they gave me bad job assignments, they gave me unfair performance expectations, they gave me unfair performance evaluations, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and they forced me to take the early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

— A critique of critical race theory – Eric Utter
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/11/a_critique_of_critical_race_theory.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Does Crappy Critical Race Theory hold that as long as there is still one white person left in the country, it is systemically, structurally racist? Are CRTers saying the only way to eliminate racism is to eliminate the white race? Because that’s what it appears they are implying. And that seems as racist—systemically and structurally racist—as it is possible to be. In fact, it would effectively be genocide. So why, then, do literally millions of people of color (POC) from around the world want to come here? Why do they go to so much trouble and effort to come to this nation? Do they hate themselves? Are they all masochists who wish to be systemically oppressed? Are they all stupid? Perhaps they are all white supremacists, too, à la Larry Elder, Candace Owens, Winsome Sears, et al? It seems odd to me that CRT states that skin color must be the primary way to identify and categorize people.)

Of course, my critics/opponents will stress to my potential opponents that so far, they have succeeded in a) stopping me from raising money from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) gerrymandering my precinct, c) ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship, d) ending my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership, e) ending my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service twice, f) ending my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, h) ending my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer, and i) ending my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership. Of course, my critics/opponents will hint/imply/argue/shout at my potential opponents that me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have caused all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000.)

— Review panel to consider funding ‘implicit bias’ and ‘antiracism’ training in schools – Greg Bishop (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats blame Republicans for problems that minority students have.)
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/review-panel-to-consider-funding-implicit-bias-and-antiracism-training-in-schools/article_ee06f854-3e78-11ec-b88e-2b9c0041190c.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)

This year, the aforesaid succeeded in muzzling me and muzzling my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters by stopping me from doing that.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/nov/2/conservative-pundit-prager-says-he-feels-muzzled-b/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If I say the ‘wrong thing’ — whatever that might be — on my Fireside Chat podcast for PragerU, I can be yanked off YouTube or Facebook. When big business and big government work together to muzzle free speech, that’s fascism,” Mr. Prager said. The nationally syndicated talk show host’s comments came as his company PragerU continues to wage a long legal battle against Google’s YouTube. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last year ruled unanimously against Mr. Prager‘s claim of illegal censorship of conservatives. But Mr. Prager continues to allege that YouTube prevents PragerU from advertising videos due to unexplained violations of community guidelines, restricting other videos as likewise inappropriate and adding a disclaimer that the content may be factually incorrect. “Never in the history of this country has free speech been in such jeopardy. What’s even more shocking is that the threat is not coming directly from the government but from woke corporations,” Mr. Prager said.)

He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969.

According to my critics/opponents who have been Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000, I should be grateful that they LET ME HELP ELECT THEM. They hint/imply/argue/shout that my efforts to help elect them (getting signatures on nominating petitions, getting campaign sign locations, delivering their campaign literature, promoting their fundraisers, organizing Republican support for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, etc.) COST THEM MANY VOTES a) BECAUSE I am “too conservative,” b) BECAUSE I support the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, immigration, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform, c) BECAUSE I have included links to articles in GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters that they do not like, d) BECAUSE I have sued people in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton who have lots of religious, financial, government, and/or political clout, and e) BECAUSE my demographics are terrible – conservative, Republican, American, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, heterosexual, married, childless, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, federal employee for almost 30 years, retired federal employee for more than 24 years, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton resident only since 1978, not interested in sports, non-dog owner, American nameplate vehicle owner, etc.)

— The 23-Year-Olds Want to Run the Office – Emma Goldberg (COMMENT: What did you do the year that you turned 23? I turned 23 in 1971. I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. I started the year working as the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, taking a graduate business management course at UIC, and awaiting a decision on my application for a financial hardship draft deferment. That application was approved, and because of my draft lottery number, I was no longer subject to the draft. I believe that prompted Oldsmobile to offer me a job which I accepted. But when I told my Firestone boss, he immediately and rudely fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $48,445/year) Revenue Officer in Chicago. But then, my Firestone boss offered me a part-time job pumping gasoline which I accepted. Before I started working for IRS and working part-time for Firestone, I went on a spring break vacation in the Bahamas. My 1969 Dodge Charger SE was stolen in Chicago in August. That directly resulted in my buying a new 1972 Corvette and a 1962 Chevy Bel Air for everyday use. At the end of the year, IRS granted my request to be assigned to its Harvey office.)
