The indoctrination by government of Critical Race Theory is not limited to bullying adults: A Cupertino elementary school is bullying eight year old kids into peak wokeness and forcing the youthful “oppressors” to check their privilege with intersectional critical theory! Christopher Rufo yet again has obtained documents from this indoctrination.
SCOOP: A Cupertino elementary school forces third-graders to deconstruct their racial and sexual identities, then rank themselves according to their “power and privilege.”
I've obtained exclusive whistleblower documents from inside the classroom. They will shock you. 🧵

First, the teacher told the eight- and nine-year-old students that they live in a “dominant culture” of “white, middle class, cisgender, educated, able-bodied, Christian[s]” who “created and maintained” this culture in order “to hold power and stay in power.” pic.twitter.com/vxFaDSVl4z

Reading from This Book Is Antiracist, the teacher taught the children the theory of "intersectionality" and claimed that “those with privilege have power over others" and that “folx who do not benefit from their social identities … have little to no privilege and power.” pic.twitter.com/GX77Og36Ai

With the exception of the “Kyriarchs” who have nothing but “oppressor” traits, everyone else can claim “victimhood” status, but also be an “oppressor”.
The teacher asked students to create an “identity map,” listing their race, class, gender, religion, family structure, and other characteristics. They were told to “circle the identities that hold power and privilege." pic.twitter.com/pENBJeZ3cF

In a related assignment assignment, the children were asked to write short essays describing which aspects of their identities "hold power and privilege" and which are "oppressed"—in effect, ranking themselves according to the intersectional hierarchy. pic.twitter.com/kAJurjRlAp

Almost without exception, all children have at least one “oppressor” or “Kyriarchical” trait, an all are subject to this bullying; however, those who have at least one “victim” trait can exercise real privilege and real power through indoctrination into the Sozialegerechtigkeitjugendi.
Parents at the school were scandalized. "They were basically teaching racism to my eight-year-old," said one parent, who rallied a half dozen families to protest the curriculum and demanded a meeting with the principal.

One Chinese-American parent compared the training to the Cultural Revolution: "Growing up in China, I had learned it many times. The outcome is the family will be ripped apart; husband hates wife, children hate parents. I think it is already happening here.”

Luckily, the group of Asian-American parents was able to shut down the training from the school. But they are worried that the cultural revolution is spreading: “We think some of our school board members are [critical race theory] activists and they must go."

Ironically, due to not being White, these parents were able to stand up against the school without the punishment that an all White group of parents would have faced because of their so-called “privilege”.

Not only will you, as Erick Erickson would say, be made to care, but your children will be made to believe.
