        This is all perilously close to an Onion article. White parents upset that students are learning about white privilege fire those responsible, thus making sure they won't be made to hear about uncomfortable things.

        NYT really has materially damaged my respect for it in the last six months. I have no problem digesting views that differ from mine but the whole oped stable there is skewed so ridiculously. It's a dark age for the paper.

        i imagine this is what reading the paper felt like on the run-up to the iraq war
