TY Sir Penguin!
I think this is a case of a more generalized problem: Where do we draw the line between recognizing talent vs. current politics.
AFAIK, society is at the whim of liberals and minorities, strictly because they speak the loudest. You've seen how things play out when based on a whim.
Again, AFAIK, society is dysfunctional to the point that it's basically, fundamentally, and completely insane. Hope You can come up with a better explanation, of course.
TY again.
Write, respond, think. Ah well...
Meant to make mention that Kendi and the 1619 Project infested their ideas into the DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION. Required.

FAIR came up with this response:
THere were some 33,000 comments on the proposal, and I "heard" that the DOE backed down. But I've spent a good chunk of time, just today, trying to see a final version of the Proposal and couldn't track it down. So dunno exactly what "backed down" means.
TYTY.
Haha! I almost didn't give ANY claps, my Queen, because I knew 50 would be totally inadequate. Did anyway.
I have studied this, off and on - mainly off, for a number of decades. As You know, I had a very negative period of self-reflection. For a long time. Having passed through that, I'll tell You what my purpose is, for my life:
It's to get my SUBCONSCIOUS Self to be totally, completely, and ABSOLUTELY COMFORTABLE, living in my own skin. I find peace and joy in that, in my own Way.
At the same time, Shunru Suziki said something like, "Everything is perfect. But there's always room for improvement."
So I have an engaging activity that I enjoy, forever learning, which will involve me deeply for the rest of my days.
66 and smoker, that may not be many, so there is that. (Haha!)

This is a VERY serious subject with the PERFECT ending. CAN'T agree more. So therefore I say YAYAYAY.
Now I set serious aside, and PC too because I'm allergic to it:
The Lone Ranger and Tonto, his Indian helpmate are surrounded by 232 enemy Indians on horses with rifles. The Lone Ranger says, "We're in deep do-do, Tonto!" And Tonto says, "What You mean 'we,' white man?"
(well, i thought it was funny. :)
TYTY,, per usual.
I'm not 100% sure what Mr. Spot is saying.
On another point, I'll see if anybody is reading anything i write, because I'll say the same of the U.S.
SURE, there are a larger percentage of white supremacists and more covert racism here. At least, that's what I took from something Sir Penguin said about UK being different.
But there are also a LOT bigger percentage of Black racists here as well. And the vast majority of them DENY Reality (with a capital "R") in doing so. Dunno HOW many times i've seen that "Black people, by DEFINITION, can NOT be racists." THis invariably followed by racist remarks. Ah well...
