This is… disturbing. OK, the “wrong” with this video is… oh god, just make it stop. Seriously, the whole “kids show” vibe has me creeped out beyond mere horror after having read The Last Closet, the rank totalitarianism, ditto. But seriously, the example used? One kid can’t dispose of their gum properly so everyone gets punished? I was raised in the Marines, and joined the Navy. One ship, one crew, one screw. I’m used to how, in the military, etc., there are group punishments for individual…

While Stefan gives his usual excellent overview, in this instance I think Sargon of Akkad gives just enough needed backstory. Oh, and Razorfist displays his usual vulgar eleoquence.

The whole article is worth a read [http://didactsreach.blogspot.com/2017/03/querying-domain-so-white-people-arent.html] . So is the one he refers to [https://didactsreach.blogspot.co.uk/2017/02/confronting-uncomfortable-truth.html] . > I particularly like and appreciate the white folk of America’s heartlands.
