Lead Up To Civil War: "Adultism" Workshop Says Teachers Are Oppressors

Another bunch of racists are complaining about having to interact with white people. From the New York Post: "San Francisco ‘adult supremacy’ workshop brands teachers as oppressors — as fringe trend spreads in California schools." The article explains:

    A San Francisco public school reportedly hosted a workshop on “adult supremacy” — a new woke trend labeling teachers and adults “oppressors” that’s quietly gaining traction in California.

    The confab, held at John O’Connell High School during an “Ethnic Studies Everywhere” weekend seminar in April, was titled “Youth as Knowledge Producers: Challenging Adult Supremacy Through Ethnic Studies,” according to an attendee who spoke with The Post.

    “Due to systemic power dynamics inherently the relationship between students and educators is an oppressive one. Oppressor (educator) & oppressed (student),” a presentation slide explained. 

    The workshop was led by Jennifer Sanchez, a third-year ethnic studies educator in the Central Valley, and convened by Teachers 4 Social Justice, a nonprofit that aims to create “empowering learning environments, more equitable access to resources and power, and realizing a just and caring culture,” according to its website.

    Teachers 4 Social Justice was founded by local teacher activist Jeremiah Jeffries, who led an unpopular push to rename public schools during the pandemic that was abandoned after sparking outrage from local parents.

Translating the aims of Teachers 4 Social Justice, it is using the race card to insist that white teachers be replaced with black or Hispanic teachers. This is another example of what Peter Turchin termed "elite overproduction." You might not think of teachers are being part of the elites, but they fit into the lower echelons of the elites due to their government jobs and benefits. They will certainly enter retirement much more comfortable than the majority of people due to generous public pensions--particularly in wealthy states. This is just an example of a type of competition for these public jobs. And, according to Turchin, "elite overproduction" is a key factor in producing revolution or civil war. 

Tribalism And The Justice System

 We all know that there is a risk that jurors will decide cases on ethnic lines. For instance, back in 2020, Carrie Bess, who had served as a juror on the O.J. Simpson murder trial, admitted that the not-guilty verdict was payback for the LAPD beating Rodney King. Of course, that explanation is suspect because there was no connection between Simpson's dead wife and King. Rather, the more likely explanation was simply that the jurors did not believe Simpson--a successful black man--should be punished for killing a white woman. But at least in that case, there were serious mistakes made by the police investigators and prosecutors that a biased jury could use to justify their vote. 

    This bias will probably be cropping up again in the murder trial of  Karmelo Anthony for his stabbing Austin Metcalf to death. If you don't remember the case, it occurred at a football game. Anthony, who is black, decided to sit under a shelter set up for a different school's players. Metcalf, who was white, tried to get Anthony to leave. But you don't want to make the black kids angry! Anthony stabbed Metcalf to death and then claimed that it was self defense.

    The New York Post has interviewed a legal expert, Randy Zelin, about the case and likely outcome. Of course, if the jury follows the law, Anthony will be found guilty of murder because he illegally and without justification used lethal force against someone who, at most, put hands on him to escort him from a place he had no right to be. Moreover, it appears from the evidence that Anthony intended to stab anyone that interfered with him. But Zelin adds this caveat:

    But Anthony has one ace in the hole, Zelin added: his race.

    Anthony’s defense has tried to cast Metcalf as a white bully flagrantly assaulting a black victim, with the murder charge the product of a racist justice system.    

This might seem outlandish, but keep in mind that Anthony raised $600,000 from people that obviously believed black teens shouldn't be held responsible for murdering white kids.  

Wilder: The Death Of College

John Wilder's latest piece is entitled "One Hour. One Dead 80-Year Math Problem. Welcome to the End of College As We Know It." His article is the result of an AI solving what was considered an unsolvable math problem proposed by the mathematician, Paul Erdős, which had gone unsolved for 80 years. John uses this as an example of the rapidly growing capabilities of AI. And a warning that:

    Now college is facing the twin problems of not being able to bring in the smart students or even requiring kids to read, while AI is everywhere.

    What is college even for anymore?  What’s the purpose?

Particularly if many new college students have never cracked open a book, learned critical thinking, or wrestled with difficult ideas.

VIDEO: Why PDWs For Civilians

PDW is an initialism for "personal defense weapon," which is the military vernacular for "submachine gun" or "machine pistol". Why the change? I would argue the change was because it sounded more modern and progressive. Sort of like how "sanitation engineer" replaced "garbage man" or "executive assistant" replaced "secretary".  But I supposed one could argue that it reflected the more limited role of submachine guns in modern militaries. 

But while even elite military units and police SWAT teams have largely abandoned the submachine gun and machine pistol because they need weapons with better barrier penetration and longer range, there has been a resurgence of interest in the civilian market for semi-auto versions of submachine guns and machine pistols (which would more appropriately be termed PDWs) largely driven, in my opinion, by the availability of pistol braces. The video below explains what advantages the PDW brings to the table for the civilian defender over the typical handgun on one hand, and short barrel rifles or rifle caliber pistols on the other.  It also compares different types of ammunition and using a forced reset trigger.

Not Enough Free Stuff To Go Around

From the Daily Mail: "Black activists seeking reparations blast Democrats for flooding their neighborhoods with migrants from Latin America." The irony is rich:

    Black activists seeking reparations for slavery in New York are coming after Democrats over propositions to include other minorities in their plans, accusing them of planting migrants to shift voter results. 

    Aubrey Muhammad claimed to the New York State Commission on Reparations Remedies in Long Island last month that Democrats were importing 'Latinos' to fill 'voting rolls' as 'replacements for us' and gentrifying Black neighborhoods. 

    'The Democrats, in a sick way, important 25 million immigrants. And 70 percent of them came into poor Black neighborhoods,' Muhammed told Fox News. 

As Tolkien pointed out, evil will oft evil mar. 

"Gay" Asylum Seeker Facing Deportation After Marrying Woman

 From the Daily Mail: "African migrant claimed to be gay to get asylum in the US - then made incredibly stupid mistake after entering the country, DHS says." Per the article:

    Salah Dine Habib, a native of Mauritania in west Africa, entered the US around 2023 and was arrested May 21, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). 

    Habib claimed to be homosexual on his asylum application, which in his home country is a criminal offense punishable by being stoned to death.

    He got a job as a taxpayer-funded corrections officer at a county jail in Portland, Indiana, after being hired by Jay County Sheriff Larry Ray Newton Jr, WIBC reported.

    However, Habib was allegedly exposed as a fraud after he married Newton's stepdaughter Chelsea in September 2025.    

 Jay County officials are pointing their fingers at each other on who to blame for not thoroughly vetting Habib before offering him a job--a job that could have gone to an American, I would add.  

Israel, Once Again, Sabotages Peace Talks With Iran

I've mentioned before that Israel is best described as a frenemy, not an ally, who grossly abuses its relationship with the United States including, but not limited to, spying and espionage, providing a haven for Jewish criminals fleeing the United States, and undermining the U.S. in the Middle East. And we have seen it over and over again with how they have undermined the U.S. vis-a-vis Iran. The latest: "Trump's ceasefire collapses as Iran ENDS peace talks over Benjamin Netanyahu's fresh bombing campaign." The article relates:

    Iran's top negotiators on Monday stopped exchanging messages with the US through Pakistani intermediaries as Tehran vowed to fully shut down the Strait of Hormuz, according to the Iranian state-affiliated news outlet Tasnim.

    The report claims Iran cut off communication because it believes one of the preconditions for the ceasefire was a halt to the IDF's continued attacks on its Hezbollah allies in Lebanon.

    The regime says 'No dialogue will take place' until Israel fully withdraws from Lebanon and also stops attacks in Gaza, according to Tasnim.

    'Also, the resistance front and Iran have resolved to completely block the Strait of Hormuz and activate other fronts including the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, in order to punish the Zionists and their supporters,' a regime official told state media. 

    The Trump administration has spent recent weeks trying to quell the fighting by brokering a temporary ceasefire between Benjamin Netanyahu's government and Lebanon, but those efforts have not succeeded.

    Oil markets went into a frenzy following news of the ceasefire's collapse, with crude prices climbing more than six percent.

Trump was reportedly not happy with Israeli prime minister  Benjamin Netanyahu:

    Donald Trump reportedly called Benjamin Netanyahu 'f***ing crazy' on a phone call just before the President announced a halt to fighting between Israel and Hezbollah. 

[snip]

    However, Trump issued a note of hopeful skepticism: 'Let's see how long that lasts — Hopefully it will be for ETERNITY!'

    Before the statement, the pair reportedly had a tense exchange during a phone call regarding escalating conflict in Lebanon between Tel Aviv and Hezbollah. 

    A source told Axios that at one point, Trump bluntly asked Netanyahu: 'What the f*** are you doing?' 

    Trump eventually went off on the prime minister, directly stating that Netanyahu would be jailed without him. 

    'You're f***ing crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your ass. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this,' he reportedly said. 

    Two sources told the outlet that Trump accused Netanyahu of being ungrateful to him and that making good on threats to bomb Beirut would make things worse for Israel. 

    The sources hinted that Trump's rage was driven by a belief that Israel's actions were making it harder to forge a peace deal with Iran. 

    Netanyahu later appeared to cast doubt on Trump's claim of a ceasefire, saying that his country would strike Beirut if Hezbollah doesn't stop attacking Israel. 

As I expressed yesterday, I doubt that Iran is sincere about trying to reach a peace deal, but neither can we trust Israel's leaders. 

Burying The Lede While Paris Burns

There hasn't been much attention in the U.S. media over the riots in Paris following a win in a major soccer match. Gateway Pundit provides some coverage of the chaos in its article, "Paris Burns: PSG Champions League Victory Sparks Second Straight Year of Riots, Looting, and Arson." But you have to get close to the bottom of the article before you come across a hint of why the rioting and looting is so much worse over the last several years:

The disturbances have reignited a broader national debate over mass migration, demographic shifts, public order, law enforcement, and the limits of existing policies. Many voters increasingly question why such scenes continue to repeat themselves year after year.   

These scenes repeat year after year because France has imported so much of the third world while simultaneously taking a laissez faire attitude toward their acting out. 

     Ruminating about the riots, the host of the Richard the Fourth YouTube channels wonders if Europe needs a strongman (presumably Oswald Spengler's Caesar figure) to save it. He uses Ecuador and its mass incarceration of criminals as an example of what must be done to control the criminal elements.

More On The Police Assisted Murder Of Henry Nowak

Nowak, as you may remember, was a British youth stabbed repeatedly by a non-British thug, Vickrum Digwa, then handcuffed and left to drown in his own blood by the British police. Spiked has more about this case and the cause of Nowak's death in its article: "Henry Nowak and the savagery of state wokeness." Digwa has been found guilty of murder; his mother, who removed the murder weapon from the scene and hid it, has been found guilty of "assisting an offender." 

As savage as the knifing was, it was what happened next that has shaken Britain’s soul. Digwa’s mother arrived and spirited away the murder weapon – it was later found hidden in the family home with 20 other Sikh swords and knives. Digwa then accused Nowak of having racially abused him. He said Nowak used a racist slur against him, punched him and knocked off his turban. These were ‘wicked lies’, the court heard during his murder trial. Yet there was a group of people on the scene of this atrocity who believed Digwa’s vile libels against the youth he had just fatally lacerated: the police.     

The author goes on to explain why the police believed Digwa and let Nowak die.  

    We all know why Digwa’s evil lie was believed and why wounded, gasping Henry’s pleas for help went unheeded – it’s because the word ‘racism’ acts like a magic spell on our ruling class. It’s like a rhetorical narcotic. The minute they hear it, they morph, like woke Manchurian candidates, into wide-eyed searchers for the merest hint of that greatest sin in our morally deracinated times: white privilege, and prejudicial speech. Their aim becomes not the discovery of truth but the demonstration of virtue. On that street in Southampton, once the word ‘racism’ had been uttered, the role of the state’s representatives suddenly and radically changed: it was no longer to investigate a potential crime but to obsequiously act out a moral script.

    Having prostrated themselves so fully before the new regime religion that falsely calls itself ‘anti-racism’, the police were virtually programmed to believe the ‘brown man’ and be sceptical of the ‘white man’. No doubt the critical race theory that pumps like a toxin in the veins of the establishment kicked in, meaning that the Sikh who had so ruthlessly wielded his sword instantly became the victim, while the target of his red-mist knifing – the white boy – became the oppressor. The state’s intoxication with the hyper-racialised politics of victimhood has driven it ever further into a quagmire of dogma where cool moral judgment is all but impossible.
