Hmm.

The first column lulls us into sort of agreeing, or at least not thinking our hair is on fire. The second takes advantage of that lull to pounce.

Wtf? Education as such, not particular forms or examples of educational practice but education itself, is a tool to further white supremacy? You’re going with that? You’re going with the claim that non-white people have no use for education? That education, all education, is racist and evil and to be rejected? Are you out of your minds?

All the rest of it is of course bonkers, empowered by the bonkers claim that education=white supremacy end of story.
