One of the influencers that I follow on social media interviewed some Trump supporters at a rally and the majority didn’t know what the words aske were, so here is breakdown of what they should have known.
Critical Race Theory:
It is an academic concept that is over 40 years old. A social construct, a product of an individuals bias or prejudice. It is the basis of all diversity and inclusion efforts consisting of race and ethnicticty, from the post civil rights era. It shows how to analyze power structures in society despite whatever laws may be in effect.
Fracking:
What is Fracking? Well it is the process that uses high pressure fluids to extract oil/natural gas from deep rock formations in our moving water.
First they drill a well into the rock. Then they insert a casing (steel pipe), fill the space between pipes and rock with cement, pump in fluid, which consists of water, sand and chemical additives. They then extract the resources, the oil/natural gas.
There are also dangers: Water contamination, Air Pollution, and in many cases has induced earthquakes. They need 8.9 acres of land for everything. It is banned in European Union countries such as Germany, France, Spain and Australia. The United States produces 79% gas and 65% of crude oil.
There are many pros and cons to Fracking for instance:
Pros: Alternative to Coal, access to materials, and job creation.
Cons: In demand, risk of earthquakes and air/water pollution.
GDP (Gross National Product):
GDP is the total market value of the goods and services produced by a country’s economy during a specified period of time. The US has the largest economy at $20 Trillion.
Socialism:
It’s an economic system in which major industries are owned by workers rather than by private businesses.
Marxism:
Originated by Karl Marx, who was a was a German-born philosopher, political theorist, economist, historian, sociologist, journalist, and revolutionary socialist. He along with lifelong friend, Friedrich Engels, wrote a pamphlet, called The Communist Manifesto, which led to an economic and political theory that examines the flaws inherent to Capitalism, that ultimately leads to Communism where the working class makes itself the ruling class that destroys the basis for class society. In a Marxist society, no social classes are in conflict, there is no government anymore. Communism rejects the concept of private ownership, mandating that “the people” via the government collectively own and control the production and distribution of all goods.
Deep State:
It is a secret network of nonelected government officials and sometimes private entities (financal and military defense) operating extra legally, to influence and enact government policy. With Trump, the alleged Deep State is working against him and his administration agenda (military, intelligence, government officials who try to secretly manipulate the government).
D.E.I:
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. It’s policies and programs to promote the representation of different groups of individuals different ages, race, ethnicities, abilities, disabilities, genders, religions, cultures and sexual orientation.
Simple words that they didn’t know, words we learned in school, many thought that they were things that the Democrats were doing, and Trump is trying to fix it. A man, who doesn’t understand the workings of what a Tariff is, do you know?
