As I said in another post, even the anti-Woke, including people pushing back on Kendi's work on Critical Race Theory, are twisting themselves into knots trying to interpret Kendi's words in ways that would make Kendi not sound "transphobic."

So, push back against Critical Race Theory is anti-Woke, but don't you anti-Wokers DARE reject genderism. Because biological sex is a spectrum and race is not. Or something like that.

Fucking Flat-Earthers all around.

What's bizarre is that one could argue that race is a "spectrum", at least on the DNA level. Even then, with race and experiencing racism, one's culture/appearance overrides wherever you technically fall on that "spectrum".

I'm mixed-race (or mixed-ethnicity, or whatever the term is now). One of my parents had a family that had a lot of kids; one kid had black hair, brown eyes and brown skin and another had very pale, freckled, white skin, blue eyes and light red hair. Yet they were full siblings.

I'm sure that there are many families, especially in the US, that have similar color ranges, which makes it all the more ridiculous when these Wokesters bang on about how biological sex is a spectrum and, in any case, can be appropriated, but race is not a spectrum and GOD FORBID you appropriate another race.

The Wokesters just dig their own grave with this contradictory stuff about race and sex that anyone with eyes can see is untrue.

Yes. I remember going to my son's kindergarten orientation years ago, and noticing that the majority of the class was mixed-race. It's very common nowadays in many parts of the country, so much that no one takes a second glance. Granted, we lived close to the first US city to legalize interracial marriage.

I also remember the 23andme sub on reddit, and nearly everyone was "mixed race" to some extent regardless of what they looked like.

Even within a "race" of people, there is always a huge spectrum in terms of appearance... I have blond/blue eyed and brown haired/brown eyed in my immediate family. Both of my parents had light eyes, too, hazel green and hazel blue... which kind of defies the whole dominant/recessive gene thing. My brother with dark eyes/dark hair, married to a woman with similar coloring (her hair is almost black, her eyes as well), and they have one kid who's blond/blue eyed, the other is brown/brown.

I don't know how CRT "folx" deal with that kind of phenomenon. Unless completely fracturing families is part of their goal.

Not to get too off the GC topic of this sub (although I do feel that CRT and Queer Theory are both being used to fracture society) but when CRT tells me to see race it kind of offends me, because my family, from immediate to extended, runs the color spectrum, and why the fuck should I see members of my own family as an other because we have different skin colors?
