... helps people release themselves from the obligations they have to their communities to address bigotry; if it's a medical problem, only doctors should handle it.
"Education" is an ineffective solution that actually doubles as a flashpoint in the culture wars, which is a win-win for a political class intent on preventing solidarity and community power from ever coalescing in a way that can threaten their fascist project or their owner/operators' interests.

@auriblackcat@social.treehouse.systems @whatanerd@social.treehouse.systems There is an extraordinary irony, btw, in the Democratic party wing of the ruling class emphasizing education as the solution to our problems and people actually embracing that and creating a series of generations (millennials and then gen z) who are so well educated about media, technology, the history of racism, and US politics that they were catapulted en masse out of the capitalist fog of war that Democrats rely on to hide their bad faith, militarism, + imperialism.
