NBC "News" Writes Maudlin, Manipulative Piece About One Woman's Quest to Make One Texas School Board Safe for Critical Race Theory

This is nigh-religious:


"Lord God," she prayed aloud as she pulled up to a voting location a few minutes later, "allow me to win this victory today for the people of Fort Bend County, and for all of the students who are counting on us."

"Amen," her kids said from the back seat.

Lewis believes that God hears all prayers, but still, she knows the answer isn't always yes.

By sundown, she and other Texas school board candidates would have the results of what have become increasingly contentious races -- centered on culture war battles over the ways schools address racism, gender and sexuality. The results that night would be mixed: Conservative candidates would sweep to victory in several races where they'd received support from right-wing political action committees, while falling short in some suburban contests in which progressive candidates ran well-funded campaigns.

Lewis was hoping she would be among those celebrating.

...

Lewis decided to run after seeing conservatives sweep to power in neighboring school districts. "I just thought, 'If not me, then who?'" she said.

...

"The partisanship and the politicization of the race here in Fort Bend County has caused so much division that we've lost sight of what this is all about, which is supporting teachers and providing the best possible education for all students," Lewis said early Saturday as she prepared to greet voters.

She wanted to stand up for the "nonpartisan" values of critical race theory and teaching about homosexuality and transgenderism in kindergarten.


One of her opponents, a 38-year-old insurance agent named David Hamilton, promised he would keep "critical race theory" out of Fort Bend schools, referring to the academic study of systemic racism, which conservatives have redefined to criticize lessons on race.

LOL.

Hamilton, who's white, also made headlines last month after a group of parents publicized several controversial posts he'd made on his personal social media pages, including a tweet that accused liberals of wanting to "sexualize kindergarteners."

Hamilton's campaign didn't respond to messages requesting an interview, but in an earlier statement shared with reporters, it said he was "committed to equality and justice for all people."

I wonder why Hamilton, who's white, didn't respond to messages requesting an interview.


With conservative groups spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to win seats on school boards across Texas, Lewis tried to position herself as a stark alternative: a Black mother who ran a campaign openly defending the types of diversity and inclusion efforts that have come under attack from Republicans over the past year.

Outside the polling site Saturday morning, Lewis said she hoped her message was resonating.

"Hi, my name is Orjanel Lewis," she shouted to an older couple before they headed inside to vote. "I hope I can count on your support for school board today."

The couple glanced toward her, but didn't respond. Lewis sighed.

"It's not a good sign," she said, "when they avoid making eye contact with you."

...

All of the candidates running for a pair of seats on the school board, including Hamilton, said they believed the district's diversity is one of its strengths. (Just 15 percent of the district's students are white. The rest are split evenly among Black, Asian and Latino.) But only Lewis was outspoken in her support of district policies implemented in recent years with the goal of reducing racial disparities in student discipline and academic outcomes.

That position drew progressives to her side, while also making her a target.

Last month, some community members circulated digital flyers, designed to look like candidate questionnaires, falsely claiming that Lewis supported giving students "easy access to porns," seeming to reference Lewis' opposition to attempts to ban books that contain descriptions of sex and LGBTQ storylines.

Falsely?

This book -- CONTENT WARNING -- is one of the books they are surely referring to, a book which contains graphic illustrations of an underaged boy giving a blowjob to an adult man. Dick right in the mouth.

"Falsely."

...

Freedom Action Matters, a local conservative activist group that had endorsed Hamilton, separately posted a video last month in which one of its members accused Lewis of wanting to teach that some children are inherently oppressors.

"They're going to push CRT, they're going to push the gender agenda, the LGBTQ agenda," Hamilton, who was interviewed in the video, said. "All of that stuff is coming to Fort Bend ISD if I lose."

Lewis called those accusations "ridiculous."

"Nobody is trying to teach kids that they're oppressors or victims because of their race," she said. "Nobody is saying that."

That is exactly what CRT seeks to teach.

...

Even with the fundraising advantage, Lewis was feeling uneasy Saturday afternoon.

Yes, this downtrodden oppressed underdog had the fundraising advantage. NBC "News" just blips by that in a hurry.

She'd been hoping for a bigger election day turnout from neighborhoods where she'd been expecting significant support.

So, with hours to go until the polls closed, her campaign fired off a text message to thousands of likely voters in the area.

Writing in sharp, partisan language that Lewis had avoided up until that point, the text blast called Hamilton a "Trump wannabe" and told voters this was their last chance to stop him: "If you haven't already voted and don't vote today, you'll have a Trump-style radical right-wing trustee and there won't be anything else anyone can do about it."

Soon, Lewis' phone was buzzing with responses from some of the people who'd received the message. Most of the replies were supportive, but not all of them.

"Don't message me again with your critical race theory bulls---," one person wrote.

The "news" article highlights one (1) message that responded with the n-word.

But... that's one (1) message -- and that kind of happens when you blast out a highly insulting, divisive text message to random phone numbers on the internet, doesn't it?

So, finally: the day went well for conservatives.

...

Patriot Mobile Action, a PAC run by a cellphone company that markets itself to Christian conservatives, had spent $400,000 backing 11 school board candidates in the suburbs surrounding Fort Worth who, the group said, would "protect our children" and "keep critical race theory out of our classrooms." All but one of the 11 candidates won their elections, including a couple who claimed more than 70 percent of the vote. The only Patriot Mobile-supported candidate who didn't win outright advanced to a runoff election in June.

Elsewhere, the results were more mixed.

In Dripping Springs, a fast-growing Austin suburb, a pair of conservative candidates who were endorsed by Rep. Chip Roy -- heralded by one of their campaigns as "America's most conservative congressman" -- won two school board seats, narrowly defeating an incumbent and another challenger.

In Katy, a Houston suburb, a mom who'd sought to ban graphic novels about Black middle school-age boys and falsely accused another school board candidate of being a child "predator," lost her race. But another candidate in Katy who said he was running to stop schools from teaching critical race theory and sexualizing children won a different seat on the school board.

Meanwhile, in the affluent Eanes Independent School District in Travis County, an incumbent school board member who'd received support from liberal groups narrowly fended off a challenge from a conservative candidate who raised a staggering $160,000 for his campaign.

...

The final update of the night came around 11 p.m. In a school district that serves 78,000 students, Lewis lost by 544 votes.

...

She thought of all the hours she'd put into campaigning. The insults and racist accusations from strangers. The nights away from her children, who were passed out on a pair of armchairs in the community center.

Despite the outcome, Lewis said she was proud of the race she ran.

"I think I did everything that I could."

And yet, as the last of her supporters headed for their cars, she couldn't help but cry.

Womp womp.

82 Why would they need CRT in a district that's only 15% white? Seems opposite.

Telling them they are victims is as big a part of CRT as telling the white kids they are oppressors. Plus it helps excuse the poor academic performance.

_____________

Fun exercise when debating a liberal online: strip out from a news article any reference to race, sex, etc. and ask the liberal for his views. They're in a quandary, typically, or rely on stereotypes to guess those details.

Of course, you have TWO news articles, and you cite whichever one wrong foots them. Sound like a cheap shot? It isn't. The liberal's opinion should not depend on the race, sex, etc. of the dramatis personae.

Example: two thugs attacked a college student as he was leaving a bar. Liberal makes excuses for the thugs, deprived, marginalized, impoverished, etc.

Then I sent him a link to the article: the two thugs were white, the college student black. Oopsie. My opinion didn't change; the liberal's did.

93 With conservative groups spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to win seats on school boards across Texas, Lewis tried to position herself as a stark alternative: a Black mother who ran a campaign openly defending the types of diversity and inclusion efforts that have come under attack from Republicans over the past year.

I love the implication there. School boards - education in its entirety - are not a place where conservatives belong. They're not just interlopers, they're *invaders* and have no right to try to get involved.

I don't understand that attitude. They're just being anti-colonial.

And those that don't get co-opted will eventually get pushed out as "right-wing extremists" by the same apparatus helped along by lots of tut-tutting NRO types saying, "We're not THAT kind of conservative."

There is a breed of GOPe (for lack of a better term) that knows ALL the right things to say and tone to take. It's all bait and we are generally very easy. And Grenell is one of them. He even had me for a spell.

It reminds me in a way of how we spent years and years trying to intellectually voxplain to Ofuckstick that despite his constant claims to the contrary, social and other programs don't generate money, they COST money.

And then one day the Republicans proposed something normal and Obama *immediately* came out and argued this idea of fiscal responsibility and talked about how these programs will simply COST the average taxpayer.

And then you realize they know it. They know all of it. They just like pretending to not know because they think it's funny to watch you explain and squirm.

I thought drawings or writings were *not* illegal, because there is no victim involved?

There was a SCOTUS case which decided that there were no actual victims in a drawing.

251 217 That was the argument in favor. The argument against, and the one I recall won the day at least at the time, was that even illustrations of kiddie porn were dangerous because they wet the appetite for the real thing. At the time, kiddie porn was considered almost demonically abhorrent such that not even a hint was permitted. Good times, good times. I could be wrong or I could be right but that reasoning was over-turned. I could google it but don't want that shit in my search history. Good only knows what shit google will send me.


IIRC, Instapundit argues that porn actually reduces rape, since it provides an outlet that doesn't involve real people. I suppose a similar argument could be made for CP. I'm not making it, just noting it.

255 OT: The leader of the CA legislature wants to spend $10 billion to help families come up with down payments. This is to "address the state's sky-high housing costs."

Two minor points:

1. If people can't afford the down payment, how are they going to afford the house payments?

2. Has this idiot learned nothing whatever from the student loan fiasco? Providing people with more money to spend only drives UP prices.

In Texas they can do that as long as they are over 100 feet away from the entrance to the polling place. When we lived in Connecticut it was 75 feet away from the door and they had chalk lines drawn where they had to stand outside of or put their signs up.

Posted by: Bulgaroctonus at May 11, 2022 03:35 PM (4G0LT)

The CPD in Chicago nicknamed her Groot. Probably due to her likeness to an alien.

I think the NFT scam is because of the EU regulations on the publication of images. If Ace, for instance wanted to post a picture of McDonna, he'd have to pay some fee to the 'official' holder of the NFT or pay some fine to the EU.

I didn't know if it was going to be a great night or my last night. It turned out to be a GREAT night. Sometimes shit you see in pornos does actually happen.

Posted by: Tofer732 at May 11, 2022 03:56 PM (GcxM3)

I thought that Tillerson was an inspired, out-of-the-box pick, actually. The State Department is a fetid swamp, in need of some real reorganization. Tillerson, as head of Exxon, knew the leaders in pretty much all the world's hotspots fairly well, and as a CEO could have brought some new thinking into how State was run. He was a multimillionaire to boot, so that always helps in not getting bought - at least in theory.

I was really surprised at how quickly he flamed out.

484 I suspect the idea that exposure to porn reduces sex crimes is bullshit. I don't know of any research supporting it, though there may be some.

The concept of desensitization resulting from exposure to porn seems well established. Given that, it seems a person with a proclivity to commit sex crimes would be more likely, rather than less likely, to act after prolonged exposure to porn.

In six months it will be November. Getting cold. The gas and oil will be shut off to europe and they will be shipping it in from all other parts which reduces supply increases price oil/natty gas. The food shortages will start to hit and there will be waves of migration as the poorer areas fail first and move to where there is some food still, then those areas will fail also. If we're lucky, by January a negotiated solution will occur. Spoiler, we're not lucky - (except for Trump - see the last two decades). And then in May will be a badly organized Nato counterattack aimed at obtaining control over resources). It will devolve into a flustercluck, and wind up on the Meggido plain by fall next year, with parts of the world, glowing. Money, health, comfort, safety, will be but a memory. In their defense, they tried to kill as many of us as they could before hand via "covid" to avoid the deaths by freezing/starvation.

551 516 That leaves only the girls looking for fun. In a big city, those "fun girls" are usually hot. As I'm not looking to ever settle down or get married, this works out perfectly for me.

I don't know how old you are, but that sounds dreadful. The thought of waking up at 45 or 50, and finding that the hotties are no longer interested because old, and the quality women are all taken, sounds like my version of hell.

558 Any teacher actively engaged with their teacher's union is looking out for themselves first. Your kid comes way down the list. I've only witnessed one union official (and I knew quite a few, who were good teachers and then became a union rep and went to shit) who pulled it off. The rest couldn't give a rat's ass about their students. Sorry teacher union advocates. You suck, 99.99999% of you, you suck to high heaven and probably deserve to get fired every day you walk into your classroom.

566 Darrell, great to see you in the comments again, and ditto on Tillerson. Actually have/had some independent info on the whole thing, and indeed he was a tremendous disappointment, and surprisingly so. Two departments that need years of outsider leadership are State and DOJ. Probably 3-4 presidential terms' worth, unfortunately.

Meanwhile, Grennell didn't do himself any favors here. It's sheer tactical idiocy to dive in and try to dirty up somebody in a primary *if that surprise/dark horse candidate is actually clearly a likely ally in office*. Especially in a primary that looks like it's anybody's race.

567 The Marxism of CRT doesn't depend on the pedigree (although there's that). Or even on a "group victim/oppressor" ideology (although there's that).

The absolute proof that it's Marxist, or more precisely inherently totalitarian, comes from the very idea of "equity" in the form of a desired equality of outcome, according to their classifications. One cannot distribute outcomes "equally" in a world of unequal individuals or people exercising free choice without forcibly taking from some, and giving it to others.

And when the "outcomes" embraced by CRT include everything from wealth, to proximity to a supermarket, to the amount and type of broadband you have, or the pollutants in your county, then anything and everything must be brought to the control of the State, and parceled out (or taken) by force, to achieve any form of so-called "equity."

Current research would suggest heavy porn use desensitizes you to actual physical sex and may inhibit your desire or performance of same. Obviously, that's not everyone, but when you look at it on a macro basis that's the potential danger to you.

Obviously the porn industry has a few too many traffic'd female teens and young twenties who are essentially sex slaves.

I hadn't read it, but heard that what was in the bill greatly expanded abortion rights thus overriding what restrictions states have put in place.

Honestly, this bill was nothing but a stage prop for the Demtards to use this fall.

Oh no. From 30 onward a man's prospects keep getting better from a relative standpoint. Sure the women you date will go up in age. But since a significant number of men self select out of the chasing poon game, another significant number are open to dating in a theoretical but put no real effort in, it leaves a glut of hungry single ladies from 30 upwards fantasizing about getting some o that male gaze. By the time you are 50 picking up a girlfriend is easy.
