What Hacker News says?

  1. Here's one for you [0]. That's an infographic from the Smithsonian museum that attributed Enlightenment-age values, like individualism, family structure, and work ethic to "whiteness" and implied that it should be opposed. They removed it after pushback (search archive.org for more). That's the tip of the iceberg though. There's a whole industry of wrapping this narrative into struggle session-like training while ch…

  5. That’s what the underlined bits throughout are, including to Rufo’s own tweets. But here, primary: https://christopherrufo.com/p/the-zen-koans-of-npr > This week, I have been engaged in a campaign to expose NPR’s new CEO, Katherine Maher, and her anti-speech, anti-truth philosophy.

  10. Here is a recent example (with 277 pages of the curricula in question) of what is being pushed in some districts near me - https://christopherrufo.com/radical-gender-lessons-for-young... .
