Because he opposes CRT and teaching LGBT issues in schools. He also opposes biological men competing as women. You are the one embarrassing yourself, pp. |
You’ve never heard of this guy before today? |
Bullsh*t! He wants all the glory. He doesn't deserve any credit. He is a fraud. |
He didn't even know what CRT was! He just used it as a weapon to become prominent. |
This! |

Didn't know who he was until you brought his name up, OP.
Here are some things he supports/is against. *he's a New College of Florida board member *he opposes CRT, which he says poses "an existential threat to the United States" *opposes teachers discussing LGBTQ issues in school and contends that public schools are often "hunting grounds for sexual predators." *seems to be against public education, saying: "To get to universal school choice, you really need to operate from a premise of universal public school distrust." *bragged that Harvard President Gay's resignation "was the result of a coordinated and highly organized conservative campaign." Seems on brand for the GOP so, to answer your question OP, as a liberal I would say that Rufo is not a "political hero" to me, but I can see how he would be to the GOP. (As an aside, I find it fascinating that some of these new GOP heroes are Ivy League grads, something that is usually anathema to the right--Stefanik, Bill Ackman, Rufo have all had "elite" educations.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Rufo |
"Christopher F. Rufo is a senior fellow and director of the initiative on critical race theory at the Manhattan Institute. He is also a contributing editor of City Journal, where his writing explores a range of issues, including critical race theory, gender ideology, homelessness, addiction, crime, and the decline of American cities." source - https://manhattan.institute/person/christopher-f-rufo |
He's gaining massive current attention because of his supposed part in promoting Harvard's President Claudine Gay's resignation. Most people don't know much else about him and might just think he is an academic who is anti-plagiary. |
No. He is just a provocateur and really evil. |
Well, the broad fiction about CRT being taught in K-12 was pretty evil. |
Was he unequivocally proved wrong? |
Is he one of those Florida people who were into threesome but anti gay? |
Guy sounds pretty unhinged, like an AR-15 short of pulling a Comet Ping Pong. |
| No, he's just another sell-out doing the bidding of the billionaires who want to destroy the American education system. |
