I am aware.

The purpose of Education is to replace an empty mind with an open one.

Unfortunately it doesn't tell us what to do with absolute ignoramus' with heads full of shit so I am going to default to "See a Nazi, Punch a Nazi", as is tradition, and if you side with people like Mackinnon I have bad news for your face.

I don't agree with you on a lot. This we agree on. Nothing bring people together like punching Nazis!

[–] Arkouda@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Seconded, and I will happily stand shoulder to shoulder with you to can a few Nazis! :)

Replace "DEI" with the hard r or ethnic slurs in most contexts for folks like MacKinnon, and tell me they aren't blatantly racist.

DEI is the new n-word.

and rests on the proposition that a white majority population has perpetrated a wide and pervasive racist agenda against others.

For anyone who has taken an even cursory perusal of unfiltered history, this is exactly what has happened.

Denying it or questioning it is to reject facts and evidence wholesale, and is a classic conservative rejection of reality in favour of a racist and bigoted ideology.

"There is no public uproar and little clamour from within the institutions; ... Resistance must come from outside the institutions"

Pretty revealing take. "Resistance"

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Resist equality.

The belief that someone else getting equal rights is bad is supremacy manifest. They believe with every fiber of their being that they are superior.

Peter Mackinnon should sodomized himself with a dead porcupine (no need to be cruel to the porcupine)
