Okay, modern day. Look at the DEI initiatives. Literally just systemic racism against white people (and Asian people, but thats not what this argument is about), thats why they keep getting slapped down in court, and now having laws directly passed against even teaching them because they are so racist.

Libraries aren't woke. What are you even talking about?

Aww, you were on a roll.

You had "DEI", "reverse racism"... a couple more punches and you could have got "shithead bingo". I understand it comes with free breadsticks.

There isn't a point in talking to you, is there?

Dei is not remotely racist unless you believe the idiotic shit from fox News and newsmax
