CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

So what? What does Melania have to do with anything? Nobody is talking about her other than you. Vance's comments were about the people who got us to the moon.
What's your idea of "small"? Operation Paperclip brought over 1600 of them. Either way, the ex-Nazis were hardly the only immigrants populating academia in the mid 20th century. Pick a discipline and you'll find that, even when the work itself was done in the US, large numbers of the scientists doing the work were born in Europe.
No, what Vance claimed - and what I've been addressing - was that we got to the moon on the backs of citizens, not low-paid immigrants. This is demonstrably untrue.
I don't? When have I commented on the substance of their positions?

Perhaps you should start a thread on Vance's speech and opinions about Vance. As to the University of Minnesota text that is the topic of this thread, in my opinion it is a classic viewpoint of the radical left, where a portion of the population is portrayed as oppressors and another, usually by race, portrayed as victims. They took the Marxist Critical theory, substituted race for class, and came up with Critical Race Theory.

Okay. If liberals want four more years of Trump, they should keep it up.

Lol a little too late to be using Trump as a threat. He’s president now and this is still happening. Seems ineffective.

It is still happening because liberals double down on woke identity politics instead of learning their lesson. Democrats would do well to listen to James Carville. But keep it up and the DNC will be less popular than Bud Lite.
