More examples picked up from those described by Christopher Rufo of neo-Marxism in institutions controlled by the clique of believers.
«If the cities of Tigard and Beaverton represent the categories of theory and praxis, the city of Portland represents their conclusion: power.
In recent years, Portland has emerged as the leading hub of America left-wing radical movements. The city's loose network of Marxist, anarchist, and anti-fascist groups has turned the street riot into an art form. After the death of George Floyd, Portland's radicals attacked police officers and laid siege to federal buildings for more than one hundred consecutive nights; they armed themselves with rocks, bottles, shields, knives, guns, bricks, lasers, boards, explosives, gasoline, barricades, spike strips, brass knuckles, and Molotov cocktails. Following the chaos, many downtown businesses closed their doors and insurance companies began to raise premiums or refuse to issue policies because of the risk of ongoing property destruction.
The same philosophy that animates the street radicals also animates the bureaucrats at Portland Public Schools, who have institutionalized the philosophy of social justice and incorporated political activism into every aspect of the education system. In recent years, administrators have pledged to make "antiracism" the district's "north star," promising to build "'an education system that intentionally disrupts - and builds leaders to disrupt systems of oppression.

At one anti-racism session, this teacher was required to participate in a line of oppression" exercise. The trainers lined up a group of educators and shouted out various injustices -racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. - then asked the teachers who would suffer from these harms to step forward. The room was then divided into the oppressors and the oppressed, with straight white men and women forced to reckon with their identity as oppressors. The objective, according to the teacher, was to consolidate ideological power and intimidate white teachers into submission through collective guilt and fear of being labelled racists.
The anti-racism program "was the battering ram," but the ultimate goal, according to the teacher, is the “dismantling of Western culture” and the ushering in a new left-wing utopia”. “I have no doubt that that’s exactly what they want” the teacher said. “And dismantling means just picking it apart until there’s nothing to hold it up anymore and then they can replace it.”
Today, the ideology of “anti-racism” has permeated every department in the district. »
