You are correct in some ways, I dont consider it a real insurrection that could have stopped Biden becoming president Their was no legal way for them to achieve that as far as I know? -

What was the most difficult part of it to watch, to me it wasn't much different to numerous violent protest or objectives that violent mobs have that I have seen, except it had an ideological objective or rather several ideological objectives -
Firstly excellent interview, I dont know who either of those guys was but I think I do recognize the interviewer? They were both very professional, interesting and well informed. The guest had a convincing way of making points and explaining things objectively and in a positive way so kudos to him. And their was no SJWism which I always appreciate nowadays Now the actual new game, its a murder mystery set in 16th century Europe driven by dialogue and as they mentioned probably similar to Disco. I am fine with that because I played Disco but didnt finish it after about 25 hours because its an adventure game and I only seem to like and complete fantasy or real horror adventure games. So for me I will definitely buy it on PC if its linked to fantasy like Quest for Glory, Kings Quest or linked to Dracula type supernatural genre but I am not sure its going to be anything like that ?

What You've Done Today - But you… have elected… the way of… pain!
BruceVC replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
I had one of the BEST days I have had since the pandemic started It started with a great and protracted lunch with my family at a hotel called Hout Bay Manor https://houtbaymanor.com/eat-hout-bay-restaurants/ Then I went home to only find load shedding at 6pm so I went to my one of the local bars called Tigers Milk to watch the Springboks win against Wales ...what a day and the best part about it was this was first time in 18 months I have been to a festive bar but now that I am fully vaccinated I am prepared to socialize again Met lots of friendly and gregarious people -

Geez you Nordic people are hardcore, shame Gorthfuscious I am sorry you were treated so harshly by your dad Nowadays that is known as the famous " sink or swim " approach and many child experts and child psychologists will say this is not the best way to teach kids lessons in life. I learnt the same way to swim but in a pool and I do support aspects of the " sink or swim " approach to certain life lessons and being the most beneficial and effective -

Thanks Gromnir, you are the first person who on any forum has been able to post an actual example of the syllabus of CRT. Because this has been much harder to understand than many realize I have bookmarked this link and I will go through it -

BruceVC replied to Amentep's topic in Way Off-Topic
Yes but what are the examples right now of the actual syllabus, what are the specific subjects that CRT is about? A syllabus has an actual content so what are examples that you can give that are similar to all other subjects that exist in all schools of every other subject in the world? That is the problem with CRT, you wont find it defined ? -

Maybe or you could argue that the progressive Democrats refusing to be reasonable about the huge stimulus and other bills that Manchin and Sinema objected to are actually the problem because they intransigent Objecting to these bills in the initial form doesn't make you a " right wing " Democrat, it could be prudent ? And the opinion of Manchin matter in final votes in the Senate because of the small majority the Democrats have ? -

Thanks, so how should this be taught schools? What is an example of a syllabus that has decided to teach CRT so we can study it and see if we agree with it. For example History that is currently taught at all schools in most of our countries has subjects and you can what kids are being taught So right now your definition is broad and doesnt mean much to me when it comes to what will be actually taught at schools, for example what exactly does " a collection of activists and scholars interested in studying and transforming the relationship among race, racism, and power" That is the one of the main issues I have with it as subject, how exactly do you define it when it comes to anyone who supports teaching it at schools? -

I have yet to find one accurate example of what CRT is supposed to be about, thats another issue with it apart from the general theme that it is revisionist, biased and inaccurate. Try to find one school syllabus that has it as a subject and at least we can understand it But its not fear mongering to be concerned about it because their are people on the left who push it and their are whole websites dedicated to it -
And I still havent played Skyrim yet

https://edition.cnn.com/2021/11/02/politics/virginia-election-results/index.html The Republican victory in Virginia is an excellent blueprint going forward that the Democrats need to address Youngkin ran a good campaign where he appealed to the Trump base but he didnt align with Trump directly, for example he had no photos with him and Trump He ran on bread and butter issues and things like education and CRT did play a part but indirectly, for example when McAuliffe said " parents shouldnt tell teachers what is taught in schools " this was raised by Youngkin as " so the Democrats dont think parents have a say in the education of their kids " So culture issues like " white fragility " and " CRT" you and others can dismiss as non-issues but they do matter and are used to frame other issues which clearly matter to the voters And also the Democrat mayor victory in NYC was also about not defunding the police and the entire flawed idea of disbanding the police in Minneapolis aslo failed. So again these ideas from the Democrats clearly do matter to the actual voters https://news.yahoo.com/minneapolis-voters-reject-plan-disband-020729281.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
