[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]lol I read only fiction books to my kids. I'm not spending my limited time with them reading some boring crap about famous white OR black people. Trust me there are plenty of years of indoctrination once they hit elementary school. No shortage of education centered around leftist political agenda.[/quote]

You are ignorant AF. There's nothing leftist or political about understanding that racism exists and is bad for everyone.[/quote]

Ok thanks. I have a phd and don't care.[/quote]

[b]And I should add that it's in a real, actual field. Not grievance studies[/b] [/quote]

A phD in asshattery?[/quote]

This reminds me of the joke:

"You walk into a room full of people. How can you spot the folks who have a Ph.D...?"

"...Because they immediately come up and tell you."[/quote]

That PP is not representative of those of us who have PhDs--most I know are a lot more thoughtful and nuanced about many issues, and don't bring it up unless specifically relevant.  I'm not sure I even believe they have a Ph.D.

I also have one but haven't brought it up in my previous posts because it had no relevance.  The PhD PP here seems insecure, at best.  Also the bolded really makes me raise my eyebrows--seems like the anti-intellectual comments made so often by Trump supporters.[/quote]
