A New York Times bestselling author says today’s “woke” Left has pulled a page from Mao Zedong’s dystopian cultural revolution and is using it to “groom” America’s children in school.
As AFN reported on Friday, psychologist Jordan Peterson has pointed out some striking similarities he’s seen between the American “woke” culture and the old USSR. Well, it’s also intentionally like Mao’s Communist China, according to noted author and mathematician Dr. James Lindsay.
“Mao had a whole program he used in schools – and I see something so similar to that in our schools now that I’m freaking out,” said Lindsay during an appearance last week on the Joe Rogan podcast.
“The goal is actually to destabilize the kids’ identity so that they are ‘groomable’ – that’s identity without an essence in queer theory,” he explained. “Then you groom them into this stuff and then they look at their parents’ culture … their parents themselves … their parents’ generation and … their parents’ religion and they say, ‘That doesn’t represent me. We need something completely different.”
According to Lindsay, that’s exactly what Americans are seeing in the current education regime.
He then explained why liberal school boards are trying to cut parents out of their children’s education: “The goal is to separate the new generation from the traditions and views of the old generation. For Mao it was to destroy the so-called ‘four olds’ – old culture, old habits, old customs, and old ways of thinking. It was like destroy the old culture.”
Be warned, Lindsay concluded – in China, the intolerance led to violence. “And then [the children] would go home and they eventually got to where they were beating their parents [and] their teachers who were considered reactionary instead of being in favor of the Chinese cultural revolution.”
On critical race theory
On his website, Lindsay tackles one of the more controversial issues in modern U.S. education: the teaching of critical race theory. He defines CRT (in part) as follows:
“Critical race theory is centrally concerned with power, which it holds in higher regard than truth …. It is not interested in progress but revolution …. [It] favors equity over equality …. [It] explicitly endorses historical revisionism ….”
“It explicitly characterizes the idea of (racial) equality as a kind of conspiracy theory that leads people, especially people of color…, to accept the status quo and their systemically oppressed state of affairs.”
And his definition of CRT concludes with:
“Critical race theorists … recommend that we all focus on race and racism specifically at all times and prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion in hiring and other opportunities. In practice, this often means to run mandatory implicit bias tests and training in workplaces and ensure that more people of racial minorities are represented in any (prestigious) workplace that lacks them.”

These dishonorable, treasonous, socialist Democrat phony racist crusades have little or nothing to do with protecting the sensitivities of Black Americans and everything to do with the Democrats setting themselves up as their saviors. Their practice of patronizing groups cannot yield to the facts that the Democrat Party has a long history of racial discrimination. For their cause is not defending the oppressed or the offended but about making themselves look wonderful with their latest destructive political Con.
The Treasonous, Dishonest, disgraceful, Socialist Democrat Party game plan is to lie, cheat and steal in order to take total control of the American people, increase Taxes on everything and bring American commerce and economy to its knees and to promote Socialism.
Then access power and retain it by any means available –
no matter the costs to the people, the government or the nation.
This treasonous, dishonest, corrupt, unethical, immoral, socialist Democrat Party is our country’s most destructive and deadliest ENEMY!
You could explain the above with all the fancy wording but it actually comes down to morality vs immorality.
or its government is now your god as it is in all communist regimes.
america better get its you know what together or we will end up on the ash heap of history.
Pull a page?? THEY ARE USING HIS BOOK down to the last letter..
CRT is derived from cultural Marxism. They share the aim of creating dissatisfaction with the institutions of society to alienate the people from them. The institutions include family, marriage, education, law, courts, government, police, military, and all other relations people have. Marxists realized after World War 1 that the people would not revolt against their nations and wanted to create a revolutionary situation this way.
