Where Did it all Start?

What are the Origins for our new Cultural Norms

There is more going on in the US than just a Liberal transformation of societal norms.

It is unfortunate that the mainstream media has been completely co-opted by the “Deep State”, as we need some intrepid reporter to find some things out for us all.

For example, where exactly did CRT start, and how did it gain so much momentum within our public school system?

How and where did DEI start, I’ve heard it was created by a hedge fund manager to assess investment opportunities based on “social justice” issues, but is that the real root start of DEI, or did the concept begin in academia?

We have somehow transitioned from a nation that teaches to ignore the color of skin and instead seek out the content of character, into a nation that sees only color. And that has created programs in both academia and commerce to promote based solely on color absent any measure of character or ability.

In just a short twenty years we abandoned traditional metrics of merit in favor of promotion solely by race.

The number of ways we’ve all been shown that grade schools across America are shaming white children for their “white privilege” are too numerous to mention.

The number of ways transgender and gay issues are being promoted in grade school have been uncovered and are too numerous to mention.

One need only scroll through “Libs of TikTok” Twitter account to see how pervasive the message from teachers to students is supporting all things transgender and gay. It has far surpassed “acceptance” and is now in the “promotion” phase. Acceptance is no longer the metric, you must “celebrate” all things gay and transgender.

But how did we get here?

How did it become acceptable nationwide to allow transgender “women” to participate in girls sports and the movement of transgender “women” into these sports was complete, nationwide, overnight?

All of these new ideas, and programs, have been adopted absent any national discussion. They have been completely absorbed by federal and state governments, academia, and corporate America.

There was no discussion on the merits or proven factual supports for any of this new doctrine. It was swallowed whole as fact, implemented swiftly, and became the “new norm” overnight. CRT, DEI, transgender acceptance into female sports, teaching adult sexual themes on alternative lifestyles as soon as first grade, all of these ideas are now mainstream in academia and corporate America.

To protest any or all of them was to be labeled racist, transphobic, homophobic. Any and all arguments for a return to a merit based society was met with cancellation. You could lose your job, be stripped of your position, face disciplinary action, and even lose the ability to raise your child should the school decide to bring in child protective services against you.

To fight this new doctrine was to find yourself pilloried, cancelled from this new society, and ostracized. Even a strong repentance might not allow your return.

You simply were not allowed to question how we got to CRT in the curriculum of every school in America, how DEI became the new metric for all advancement in corporate America, or how transgenderism has broken out from a rather small percentage of our population and into a daily mainstream topic.

But I ask you dear readers and community members who read regularly, what of the origins of these programs?

I have a suspicion that all those ethnic and gender specific studies programs implemented into our institutes of higher learning way back in the 1980’s have had their source materials and curriculum trend toward the basics of CRT and DEI. The very source of any idea of “white supremacy” has to have begun in some black studies program which claims that blacks simply cannot advance in a society created by whites. This whole “gender is a construct” has to have come from women’s studies programs the creation of which parallel black studies programs at Universities across America.

I believe any examination of where all of these programs originate will somehow point to academia and the emergence of “black studies”, “women’s studies” as actual majors and fields of endeavor. I believe that at some point the idea of black Americans having the opportunity to “study” their history, what it has meant to be “black in America”, and to review WEB Dubois, Frederick Douglass, James Baldwin, and so many other somehow morphed into an entire curriculum on “white man bad”.

The same appears to have happened with “women’s studies”, instead of some review of the Suffragette movement, women’s voting rights, the rise of feminism in the 1960’s with Bella Abzug, Betty Friedan, Helen Gurley Brown and others, it instead became a curriculum of “men are the scourge and bane of our existence”.

I say both of these things because that is the message being preached today. It had to come from somewhere.

All of the metrics we used to use to determine “right and wrong”, “good and bad”, have been turned on their head. I read a comment from a black activist recently who said that they refuse to accept any white narrative on the Jussie Smolett case claiming that his views and statements must be understood from the narrative of being a black victim in a racists society and therefore she said “his truth” must stand as the truth.

All facts of the case be damned.

We cannot coexist in an America where our understanding of “truth” has opposite meaning. We cannot coexist in an America where there is “your truth”, “our truth”, and the real truth.

Stealing is wrong, even if the amount is under $ 900.00. You cannot merely raise the financial bar for morality. A society that fails to live by principled standards is destined to fall.

We need a real review of how we got to this point in America, what were the driving forces behind DEI, behind CRT, behind “my truth” as requiring any validity at all.

And we must then re-engineer these programs and bend them back toward meritocracy, morals, and foundational principles.

We will not and cannot stand as a unified people under the current “metrics”. They are designed to fail. And when they fail, so will the country.
