      How much do you think Biden will flatten or moderate a curve that was on a sharp upward trajectory even before the 2016 election?pic.twitter.com/NGvcsIl7fu

      I don't expect *Biden* to moderate it! I don't think it's up to the President to do that.

      It's up to sane conservatives/centrists/anti-woke liberals to do that. But Trump makes it an almost impossible task.

      They don't have any reach Cathy. The only thing that can flatten the curve is the mainstream media. They can start by reducing the salience of race; clarifying that the police don't actually 'constantly' murder black people; and that disparities ≠ racism.

      But they won't. So wokeness is here to stay, whether it's Trump or Biden. Trump at least would offer some short-term institutional resistance. But that's about it.

      I think Cathy still has an imp point. From trade to immigration to race and beyond, people run screaming from anything Trump touches. He's an excelerant. With him, no chance of stopping the woke left. With him gone, a small chance of slowing it down.

      Anyone paying attention to @realchrisrufo's would realize a White House sympathetic to woke policies being institutionalized in civil service trainings would pretty much complete the project to take over the institutions. Until Biden behaves otherwise, he's their tool.

      I think of this as the "let's not win now, so we can keep losing later" strategy. Biden will further institutionalize CRT, Trump will deinstitutionalize it. That's the choice. The "centrist-idealists" have no understanding of how power works.

          I keep saying this but some people seem to think the appeasement of a Biden election will sate the nonsense. Why would it? If someone more friendly to activists were to become college administrator, would they be less disruptive or more? Blood in the water.

          This is how it works, Damon. Like all insurgency movements, they work on the premise that the majority of people want to be left alone. What that means is that all you have to do is threaten sufficient disruption and you move people into passive support of your movement.

          The only bulwark against that is the civil and bureaucratic authorities. When those are internalized into the ideology, there is no bulwark, and the masses shift out of self preservation. That is how power works. Biden will just be the affable seeming vehicle.

          Right. This strategy didn't work *pre-Trump*; instead, CRT institutionalized and spread *even further* in the pre-Trump years. HRC ran a woke-style campaign. The Dems showed they were unwilling to stand up to this stuff.
