Whats with all the institutional based ones?

Bias, racism, oppression, racial superiority, etc.

Like holy shit, just take a look a half of the words on this list and try to honestly claim something isn't wrong.

They essentially want the state to ban the ability to vocalize opposition to white supremacy. That's what all this CRT hysteria has been an obvious Trojan horse for. The Republican Party knows they can't win through democracy and that they have to do a bunch of racist and authoritarian things to maintain power. This just lays the ground for that. They don't want you to accurately identify what they're doing, to place anything in historical context, to think of anything systematically instead of just a series of individual acts?

Where's all the concerned liberals who are worried about censorship and think everything is literally 1984?

And the Dems are doing very little to stop this very obvious grab for power.

The Republicans are the party of overt white supremacy, the Democrats are the party of covert white supremacy that we've been trying to integrate for the past 50 years.

I'm no fan of the thing they are ostensibly trying to push against, but banning words is not how you go about it.

However, I cannot find evidence that they actually are trying to ban these words.

This whole things seems to start with this bill:
https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2021/related/proposals/ab411
And this testimony:
https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/misc/lc/hearing_testimony_and_materials/2021/ab411/ab0411_2021_08_11.pdf

Which says:
"I have an addendum to my testimony that lists several of the different terms associated with critical race theory or the words that are part of the praxis of the theory. Yes, its extensive and you can tell a lot of this was created in legal academia, but the point of this legislation is to prohibit it from being taught in our government schools"

To me that does not seem like it would be "banning" the words though. And the bill itself does not seem to make any reference to banning words.

This topic was already posted, and I think most the posts about this are really misrepresenting it. This "banned word list" is just a thing floated by one representative, his personal interpretation that he's putting out to score political points. It's not in any way a part of the actual bill being proposed, the language of which seems pretty middle-of-the-road opposition to racism and sexism IMO.

https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2021/related/proposals/sb411

Of course the useless news media is of little help here, almost no one writing about it actually links to the bill. I'm doubtful whether there's any need for this bill, but I'm not sure you could cite a clause in it which is particularly disagreeable either.

Yeah. I was the only one here who tried to find the source.

I don't really blame everybody here, but we have to be careful when trusting OP's characterization of a tweet's characterization of a news story's characterization of a bill at 100% face value.

TC usually has a problem with topic titles. He tries to be creative with his titles and ignores like 99% of the story so he can have some catchy clickbait of a title.

Good to know. I'll tag them and they double check the sources in future topics.

I do not receive notifications, so using the @ feature will not do anything. I might see your post and respond though if I have already been in the topic.
