I agree with your stance. This was inevitable and better than the goose stomping of the left. I want hypocrisy, whether real or perceived, to be called out. I do worry about the Fuentes types. James Lindsay warned of the alt-right using the CRT rhetoric for their own advantage. Eight years ago, my mixed heritage kid called me out for white privilege. It was painful to say the least especially as I always told him of the impoverishment that awaited the relatives who immigrated here. Because history isn't taught, I have to tell people that Karl Marx was writing in England about the horrendous conditions. Children sent into factories and coal mines. Fuentes is seemingly lifting up the fantasy and saying, 'yes, those were always the historical conditions and we want them back.'

I look forward to more of your posts. What I get from my officials depresses me.

I was thrilled with Shapiro's speech as I'm tired of the tendency to justify anything said as long as it's said while standing under the correct flag, even if it's in direct conflict with that flag. The democrats have perfected that tendency and we don't need to follow them into the mud. Call each other out when necessary but then be able to drop it and work together for shared goals.
