Summary

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 47 Systemic racism is said by Critical Race Theorists "ordinary, not aberrational—'normal science,' the usual way society does business, the common, everyday experience of most people of color in this country." As such, virtually everything is systemically racist, from schools to the SAT to businesses to every policy they can think of to teachers to hobbies like walking, hiking, and being outside to books to birds, fish, and even rocks. Everything is systemically racist. Except one thing, we have now learned: vaccine passports. Despite the fact that vaccine passports, if implemented, will meet the Critical Race Theory definition of racist policy (which Ibram Kendi says is abominable and should be unconstitutional), this fact is not being trumpeted by Critical Race Theorists anywhere. In fact, those who have spoken publicly on the issue, like Nikole Hannah-Jones, have applauded the vax passes. Not only that, but Twitter is locking people out of their accounts and suspending people for sharing satirical memes pointing this fact out. Join James Lindsay in this episode of the New Discourses Podcast for a short discussion of this phenomenon and what it means. (Nota bene: It has come to our attention since the recording of this episode that the eviction moratorium is also strongly systemically racist by the Critical Race Theory definition and yet supported by the Leftist Regime, so there are at least two things that are not, in fact, systemically racist. Three if you count the destruction of black and Latino neighborhoods and black- and Latino-owned small businesses in the wake of the so-called "Black Lives Matter" riots of 2020. Official word is that there is no pattern whatsoever to the strange exemptions from the list of what is systemically racist.)

0:00.0	Hello everyone, this is James Lindsay, you're listening to the new Discourses podcast.
0:23.6	Now I'm going to tell you a little story, so I just got back from Madison, Wisconsin,
0:28.2	and I got invited up there to do a talk.
0:30.2	I think it was a pretty good talk.
0:32.6	Talked about how critical race theory is race, Marxism, I think I make the case rather
0:37.6	solidly.
0:38.6	Some of you will know I've mentioned, I've got this book that I'm writing, it's almost
0:42.9	done at least in first draft.
0:45.7	I want to get it out soon, if possible, and the book is about, I was supposed to just
0:50.7	be about critical race theory and I just came to the conclusion in the process of writing
0:55.1	the book down there.
0:56.1	There's no avoiding the fact.
0:57.7	It's not just that critical race theory is related to Marxism, it's that it is race,
1:01.5	Marxism.
1:02.5	I hope the book is going to be a pretty comprehensive case of that or for that to make that case.
1:08.0	Most of the talks I've been doing since I started writing the book, including my series
1:11.1	that I did in Tampa, so everybody can look forward to those videos coming out soon to see
1:15.0	what I said in my first official new Discourses only event, which was wonderful by the way.
1:23.4	I think it makes the case pretty conclusively.
1:26.3	You can look forward to that, it should anticipate the book, it should mirror the book, and
1:30.6	I hope you'll be interested in the book when I finally get it done and edited it.
1:34.2	Now, that's not the point, the point was that I was in Madison, and Madison, Wisconsin,
