I agree with you, Mark Silbert. But, this is no circle jerk at The Glenn Show. Haven't you noticed? I am constantly calling attention to the realities of the 21st century and their ominous implications for the future of my country (and for the fate of "my people.") I have worked hand-in-glove with Woodson for decades. I constantly inveigh against the CRT/BLM-line on violence and disorder in the ghettos. Clarity of thought is an indispensable prerequisite for meaningful and effective action. As a thinker, I believe that I'm doing my part. GL

I understand. I'm just really frustrated by all the tippy toeing around avoiding criticism of the current administrations performance regarding Teacher Unions, charter schools, antisemitic comments by the squad and others, police reform, fomenting divisiveness racially, idiotic initiatives re. climate, kowtowing to China on Covid origins, politically driven Covid policies........................

I know where you stand and I appreciate your efforts and I read or watch all of your work. I note your ongoing collaboration with Woodson and appreciate it. My comment was not directed at you. I've said several times that I have a strong personal affinity for you and your message.

McWhorter though really gets under my skin sometimes when he blames everything on Republicans or just anyone that's not a Democrat/progressive. He's a big part of The Glenn show so I wrote my critique here. I've submitted several questions to the Q&A to try to prompt some discussion on this between you and John but y'all haven't chosen to tackle the subject. This is a big part of why I say I am losing patience and talked about a circle jerk. My sense is that it's a sensitive topic that the two of you don't want to get into on the show. From my point of view this is a glaring shortcoming in your discussions. I sense that you are not on the same page as John on many of these things and would like to hear it discussed.

We need political leaders of all stripes that are willing to stand up to these Post Modern Critical Theory facists that are trying to destroy our country. Ignoring the fact that the current administration is pretty much lock step with them is not productive.

I hope this clarifies my earlier comment.
