    I know that at a starting salary of less than $40k in most states, teachers may not be the brightest crayons in the box but the claim they're spreading "white-hate" is pure crapola.

    And lack of opportunity in other areas.

    All religious people are devil worshippers. Actual devil worshippers are just more honest about what they are doing.

    That's akin to saying you set the price of a new car by purchasing it.

    Why are you making up crap about what teachers teach?

    It assumes that every white person discriminates against non whites. It also seems to skip over the notion that in a predominately black or Hispanic or Asian community, that the same types of privilege might apply to the people of those races against other races. Then of course there are the woke leftist / Democrat communities who discriminate against conservative / Republicans.

    Can we just except the idea that there are some bigots in the world? That singling out just whites to vilify over this, especially white men, is a silly and destructive thing to do?

    White hate is in the news media 24x7 CNN, MSNBC etc, it has nothing to do with salary.
    It is very hard to understand what is their final goal. I guess official slavery for white would be probably satisfactory.
    Like only whites have obligation to work, the others can just have UBI for life.

    All people hate white people, especially whites. They've become like Jews in that respect.

    So, you created the white culture that discriminates against blacks? Why did you do that?

    If you're saying Democrats hold back against types like Al Sharpton, I agree. We've gone from The Jeffersons with Sherman Hemsley playing a bigoted black lead to a reality where we seldom if ever hear a Democrat pol calling out black racism.
    That's absurd. Democrats are afraid blacks will desert the party the way Republicans are afraid of Trump supporters.

    No, white privilege is not real. Privilege is real, but it isn't accorded by the color of your skin. This was made up by someone, most likely a white, liberal woman.

    I guess you live on another planet and have no idea about unconstitutional and discriminatory laws in the United States.

    Wrong, I would never make that claim. I could only state that I couldn't see the door from my limited perspective.
    And hard data, experimental proofs and so forth. For example, I have a mirror on my truck that is a wide angle lens, it gives me a wider range of vision, but, the trade off is that it also makes objects appear further away than they are. I'm not hostage to the visual perspective, my mind immediately adjusts based on the actual reality.
    Good! Such a view is clearly flawed. My nephews are black and grew up in a wealthy beach community, are superstar athletes, straight A students and very handsome. The world falls at their feet at every turn, but, they also get scoped by law enforcement in a manner that I do not. But, clearly a working class, fat, unattractive D student out of Appalachia with drug addicted parents and sisters that are hooking for crack, who is covered with more tattoos than the has teeth is not walking around in "privilege" compared to my nephews.
    Unless you can point to an action, you have no right to assume thought of anyone based on their immutable characteristics such as skin color and sex. And there is simply no way to intelligently and truthfully argue that CRT is not deeply infected with these flaws and fallacies.
    No. I don't. If I have been unfair to someone, I need to make it right. This "degree of truth" crap, is the hide hole of the clown making accusations against others who has no actual evidence that they are true.
    Fake News. Jehovah's Witnesses have been free refuse to practice those norms for at least 80 years.

    But, the folks pushing this dreadful abusive agenda want racial strife.

    Exodus 20:16. Teachers are not spreading hatred against whites. Your claim is total BS.

    I've been observed my management and workers in a store so what? My first job in 1972 my leadman was black and worked along side other blacks. My second job in 1974 my leadman was black and the supervisor of the department was black. First was in Alabama and the second was in Mississippi. Does that mean I didn't white privilege? Weren't those blacks more privileged than me?
