Current Events > Miss. Gov. Reeves seemingly admits America founded on Racism

(+) Yeah! (+)

Less than a year after Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves said, I am not aware of any school district that currently allows for the teaching of critical race theory (CRT) in his state, he sounded the alarm about the alleged spread of CRT that had forced him to sign a bill banning it.
Students are being force-fed an unhealthy dose of progressive fundamentalism that runs counter to the principles of Americas founding, Reeves said as he signed the law, in a pretty straightforward admission that racism is one of the principles of Americas founding. Children are dragged to the front of the classroom and are coerced to declare themselves as oppressors, that that they should feel guilty because of the color of their skin, or that they are inherently a victim because of their race.
Big claim there, but, He did not point to any real-life examples of the scenario he described happening in Mississippi, though he may have been referring to a single alleged incident at a public charter school in Las Vegas, Nevada, the invaluable Ashton Pittman of the Mississippi Free Press noted. Nor could the bills author point to any such examples at the time he introduced it in the state Senate.

Why does this board hate this country so much? When did it pee in their collective cheerios?

Every country has skeletons in their closet. Not sure why Americans are so fixated on theirs

Why is acknowledging the historic and ongoing racial issues in America "hating" it?

Don't act like it's just this topic. I've seen how this board talks about America, it has issues yes but it is better then 90% of other countries just by our Constitution alone.

I hate this Peter Griffin lookin jackass that's my governor.

Duncan don't

You mean the Constitution that was written by just white, mostly slave owning men? The same folks who considered people like me to be on the level of cattle?

Duncan really gonna do

The fact those White, mostly slave owning white men got to make that Constitution in the first place was a miracle back then. 99% of countries were ruled by a king (or queen) who ruled with absolute authority and you were executed for even breathing the wrong thing about them. We made a country where you can say shit about our rules without losing our head (if you were lucky) making it the best place to live and it still is.

Your brain on American exceptionalism

You think King George wouldn't have had them all sent to the Gallows for wanting independence? They risked their lives to make this country.

lol how nobody can even refute this

"Two centuries ago, these men did a great thing while also doing not so great things. Therefore this country is now and forever perfect"

You expect people to actually adress this shit?

It's fine to want to improve America, America should be improve. But the people ITT are just butthurt that some patriotic jocks bullied them as kids or whatever and are making no effort to enact actual change. Whining is just whining.

The fuck do you expect the average person to do when the political system is completely rigged against any actual change

Whatever you do don't look up what our ancestors did to the natives when they came here.

Our entire history revolves around literal bloodshed.

That's literally all of human history

So because we have "free speech", we aren't allowed to criticize the country?

And "free speech" is the Number 1 determination on how good a country is? (Even though America gets its ass kicked in a number of other, arguably more important areas such as healthcare, affordable education, public education in general, worker's rights, etc.).

None of those things matter to Duncan. He's a spoiled, selfish child who has never had to do even the most basic of things to support and take care of himself.

His biggest issues in life are when his parents won't take him to the mall or buy him any more games and toys.

Activism, volunteering democrats in local elections, canvassing, etc.
If you're on the internet complaining about how America is terrible without doing anything, then clearly complaining is more important to you than any values you say you have.
When you see threads like this where people ignore actual discussion about America's pros and cons and how to both honor the good parts and fix the bad parts in favor of jerking each other off about how bad America is, it's clear it's all in bad faith.

I have done literally all of those things and more, so I guess that gives me the right to say, "Fuck off." This is GameFAQs. More specifically, this is Current Events and we're talking about current events. And btw, practically every single one of these anti-CRT bills is just anti-intellectualism, pro-racist virtue signalling. At their best, they're ineffectual.
