pro tip: if your definition of critical race theory includes the words 'marxism,' 'socialism,' 'woke' or 'cancel,' you are an unserious idiot who needs to sit the fuck down. and keep Martin Luther King Jr.'s name out of your stupid racist mouth

if you think critical race theory is actually part of high school curricula, you are an unserious idiot who needs to sit the fuck down. and keep Martin Luther King Jr.'s name out of your stupid racist mouth.

Republicans just laugh when they throw derision words out there to demonize Democrats and watch us fall over backwards repeating their words and defending ourselves against these accusations. It is too easy. When the news calms down about one issue. Throw out another. Watch us scramble. Democrats are so politically naïve.

What you do in response is 1. Do not use their words. 2. Say "IT IS A LIE" 3. Explain why they are lying with your own derision i.e. "They need to lie about us because they are the tools of international oligarchs that we are fighting to make them pay their fair taxes and give Americans a livable wage. Full stop.
