I'd like to see him asked why he used this jargon and if he was sincere at the time and would he stand by it now. Perhaps he can restate language like "violent hierarchies" and "colonized minds" in a way that mainstream Texan voters can relate to. Ask him!James Talarico telling White teachers on a zoom call that "white supremacy and hetero-patriarchy have colonized their minds"…

This guy is not a moderate.
He’s full woke 1.0 insanity. pic.twitter.com/FxSTb7opT2
I asked Grok to write Talarico's answer to my question and got this: "I taught in a poor school where the kids were mostly not white. A lot of us who grew up middle-class, including me, walked in with assumptions that didn’t match what those students were dealing with—family stress, neighborhood crime, schools funded by local property taxes that leave the poorest districts behind. If you’re going to help those kids, you have to notice your own blind spots instead of pretending the system is already fair. That’s all I was trying to say.”

Talerico, why is it that you seem to present yourself differently to different people? Is there a sincere you?
He used the jargon to impress, he was as sincere as ever, and he would stand by it now as much as ever. That's the presumption, anyway.
If insane ever had a face, it would be his.
… “schools funded by local property taxes that leave the poorest districts behind.” NYC spends $40,000 per public school student. This BS about underfunded schools is an outright lie.
Virtually everyone on the planet deals with unfairness. Part of maturing is understanding how to navigate this as a part of life. If you’re a teacher, you don’t exacerbate the problem by making your students feel like there’s no hope because of some imagined responsible boogeyman. That’s cruel. Hope is demonstrated every day by people’s success in various endeavors despite the hurdles.
Demonic ken doll
Reminder, Grok is not Talarico. While an interesting question to Grok, it’s not a real response from the guy. It would still be interesting to hear his response.
“Demonic ken doll”. lol
Hey don’t wreck the Ken doll image! Out here in Lioness fan club land, we’ve got the real thing…;)!
serious question:
WHY do the Texas Democrats keep picking openly homosexual white men, when they are trying to win state races by appealing to hispanic texans?
an attractive, literate hispanic female would be a better choice.
you know, like Mayra Flores? or Monica De La Cruz?
OK, I am voting for Grok. He seems like a good guy.
Sure Grok. He was just relatin' to the kids about the heteropatriarchy 'n shit.
“That’s all I was trying to say.”
Weak. Stronger:
“That’s what I was saying.”
This guy is - hands down - the creepiest person in public life today. Reminds me of a serial killer or televangelist.
You know right
You also have to notice that poor kids aren't very bright, nor are their parents, so few, if any, are college material, but you should try to train them to be useful to society and themselves by drilling on the three Rs & demanding good behavior.
White supremacy has certainly been a violent hierarchy, as has heteropatriarchy and economic exploitation at their extremes.
Democrats are so racist they can't even see themselves.
This guy also wants to turn children into eunuchs.
The modern democrat party has devoured the demon Moloch or morphed into a ravenous horde of evil demons.
They just need to go somewhere else.
I worked in disadvantaged public schools whar a mook he wants to spend ny money and get new york results

Point in fact. A racist piece of shit democrat posts his ass for all to see. They cannot see themselves.
Replace all of the white men in the United States with random men from around the world and what becomes of the United States?
It is 3rd world in a year.
Replace all of the men in any other country with white men from the US and we will make that country what the US is now.
Everyone else hates us because they ain't us.
This is like an ultra low-budget sequel to Damien 2.
Damien 3: Harvard Boy
The point of noticing Talarico's word choice is to observe that it is his mind that has been colonized, and that his propensity to substitute someone else's jargon for ordinary thinking makes him a terrible choice for national leadership. Why would you want to normalize his bs anyway?

I found Obama creepier.
Probably because Obama was so much better at being a politician.
But Obama was more depraved than Talarico is.
Okay, Commie.

remember that a terrible ideology is far more destructive than a terrible personality. Which is why the media avoids the ideological horror of talarico; and focuses on the bad personality of Paxton

Because they are of his ilk they want to wipe out thd oil industry and mutilate children
The trope about poor districts being left behind is largely antiquated . Lots of states have funding equalization plans., and the federal government provides Title I supplement funding to low funds districts. As a beneficiary of low funded Catholic schooling, I can see that funding and performance are often not correlated.
I think Texas Democrats are banking on automatic votes from hardcore Democrats plus Hispanic voters who aren't following the election and will vote for the vaguely Hispanic-sounding Talarico, which is an adopted Italian name.
Suaverico for the L.
Everything is bass ackwards with this “guy”.
I know what it means, but that's the first time I have seen the word "heteropatriarchy". I think it's the lack of a heteropatriarchy, ie an intact family headed by a father, that is causing so many problems. Boys who grow up in fatherless families have a lot of problems. If you grow up in an intact family you've got a leg up on life despite your economic circumstances.......I suppose if middle class families grow up with as much familial dysfunction as their poorer neighbors, then we can achieve a certain kind of equality. So just keep preaching against the heteropatriarchy and undermine it whenever possible.
Gilbar: Why do you think Talarico is gay? I haven't really paid attention either way, but my impression is that he's been in a longish relationship with a woman who was formally a staffer.
I think people can assess a candidate quite apart from sexuality and I don't find that datapoint determinative, for me. But it does seem odd if there's a mischaracterization, especially if it's for the purpose of trying to make some sort of larger point.
Am I wrong? Why do people think he's gay?
Yeah. Sure. White kids never feel any stress.
In Taylor Swift concerts, the young women attendees scream along with Taylor, "fuck the patriarchy". This does not bode well.
Talerico, why is it that you seem to present yourself differently to different people?
we are legion
respect our pronouns
Like a certain other ivy leager we used to know from cornell
Yeah just fit them with burkas
James Talarico: former middle-school teacher, master’s degree in theological studies, openly grounded in his Christian faith without using it as a political weapon. He talks about loving your neighbor, helping the sick and poor, and protecting individual rights and liberties.
Ken Paxton: indicted on securities-fraud charges; impeached by the Republican-controlled Texas House over allegations including bribery and abuse of office, though acquitted by the Republican-controlled Senate; and at the center of a controversial plea deal involving Adam Hoffman, a man accused of sexually abusing a child. Hoffman ultimately pleaded guilty to lesser misdemeanors, served just 29 days, and did not have to register as a sex offender in Texas. After moving to Nebraska, however, authorities determined that his Texas conviction required him to register there as a sex offender.
And yet there are Republican voters who sincerely believe Paxton is the lesser of two evils.
That tells you something, not necessarily about the candidates, but about the voters making the comparison.
The way he reached out to "the white educators on this call" so they could lick those tasty, hypnotic buzzwords off his hand, made me think of the young Jim Jones.
This is the candidate who will turn Texas blue? Dream on dumbasses.
that's the first time I have seen the word "heteropatriarchy"
People familiar with human sexuality understand that heterosexual men are the fathers of humanity.
So there's no need to put "hetero" in front of "patriarch."
Maybe he could put his sperm in a test-tube and mail it to AOC, and she can pay scientists to unite his sperm with her frozen eggs. And they will make a sexy baby with a high IQ. The world's first actual gender-fluid being. The baby's penis pops in and out, to be replaced with a vagina, and then back again.
Damien 4: From the Lab
AOC: "No, no, he's too white."
Reproductive Scientist: "Damn it. Abort this one. Let's do it again."
Talarico: "What about baby oil at the swimming pool? He could get brown that way."
AOC: "Shut up, rapist."
They cut the video before he talked about grabbing 'em by the pussy.
Mind arson thoroughly scorchsd him
Talarico (whispering to the reproductive scientist): "Watch out for the bug eyes. We don't want bug eyes."
AOC: "I heard that!"
To the left, this is nothing but "locker room talk."
Even Paxton’s ex-wife is urging Texans to vote for her ex. For some reason the leftists here thought his messy divorce was disqualifying but even the person he battled won’t vote for Creepy James. Explain that.
The comment that Talarico is either a serial killer or a televangelist is gold! Imma steal that.
Is there homopatriarchy? Is that a thing?
While Talarico keeps his private affairs largely out of the spotlight, speculation persists due to his outspoken support for LGBTQ rights and his unmarried status at age 36.
4 years ago, he started a Public relationship with Brianna Menard, who previously served as his chief of staff.
i SUPPOSE, that it IS possible, that when he started his campaign, he SUDDENLY DECIDED to fall in love with a woman.
..or,
when he started his campaign, he SUDDENLY DECIDED that he Should APPEAR with a beard (a woman that pretends to be a girlfriend).
i DON'T know him, and have never been alone in a bathroom with him; so i have NO IDEA what he does in private..
i DO KNOW that he is SUPER SUPPORTIVE of LGBTQI2SA+
and i DO KNOW that he sets off my gaydar.
Talarico’s beard is more obvious than Buttigieg’s.
Anyone that would have gone into the environment Grok thinks Talarico went into (the way he went in and the assumptions made), apparently, so naively is not qualified to lead.
Why do people think he's gay?
He called God non-binary.
Then he tried to pretend like he wasn't making trans commentary
And he said, "You can't use human categories to define God."
Which of course is a direct contradiction of Christianity. Jesus Christ used human categories all the time. "Our Father, who art in heaven..."
Christ came to Earth to humanize God, and to let us know that we are loved.
I really don't give a damn about his sexuality. But his lies are something else. And his attempt to use the Bible to justify aborting our children is an abomination.
Ampersand: In Swift’s “All too Well”, the lyric is “Now you’re tossing me the car keys —fuck the patriarchy”, as if when the chick drives she’s striking a transgressive blow. One hopes it’s ironic (but maybe not).
The boy aint right this is who seminaries are turning out
Fiercely heterosexual Talarico is angry! You won't like him when he's angry...or just not like him period.
"The boy aint right this is who seminaries are turning out"
Some church has missed out on obtaining him as its resident pedophile.
The AI doesn't understand that kids aren't naturally racist. They have to be indoctrinated to be suspicious of other people. Just treat kids like human beings, and you're good.
Talarico taught Language Arts(!) at Rhodes middle school from 2011 to 2013. A decade later, the school was closed after it received academically unacceptable ratings 4 years in a row.
"those things have colonized our own minds"
Don't trust your own mind. Those aren't really your thoughts you're having. Listen to me, I'll tell you what you should be thinking.
He talks about loving your neighbor, helping the sick and poor, and protecting individual rights and liberties.
He's infamous for talking about aborting your children, castrating your sons, and giving steroids to your daughters.
Gilbar, Gina Hinajosa is running for governor. Her record of voting for ever higher taxes isn’t going over well. She is a literate Latina and socialist as they come.
It's the talk of the democratic-Brownshirt. You are guilty as charged in the minds of the corrupt left - and you must convert or be punished.
while leftwing antifa burns it all down - the left will blame - YOU.
And hes a hamasnik

———————————————-
If misinterpreting the Bible to justify abortion and socialized medicine is not using your faith to justify your politics I don’t know what is.
Talarico might study Christianity but he is not Christian. He has stated: “Whether it’s God or Yahweh or Allah or Nirvana, the Great Spirit, whatever you call it, this is all… different pathways to the same kind of fundamental truth of reality.”
This is blasphemy. A core tenet of Christianity is that the only path to the Truth is through Jesus Christ.
It is more likely that he is agent of Satan whose job it is to lead people away from the truth.
I do have a particular DISGUST of these racist and propagandistic brain-dead lectures COMING OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF WHITE LEFTISTS.

Jargon, jargon, jargon, jargon. Don't hold me accountable. It is not my fault. What, me worry?

It's worse than that. How much of that $40K goes directly to students' needs? I'm guessing the lion's share goes to the bloated administrative salaries, union dues, and DEI materials, rather than school supplies and physical plant maintenance.
It's pretty obvious that a sure sign of a "colonized mind" is one that reflexively uses weaponized phrases like "violent hierarchies", "white supremacy", and "heteropatriarchy".
If Alfred E Newman was a degenerate homosexual creep, he'd be Talarico.
Reminds me of Richie Cunningham
Paxton defends children and female athletes
Remember the gope spent over 60 million to defeat him
I'm reading California's Report on Reparations. It's 1000 pages and I'm about 70 in. But I notice this already. All the crimes are being attributed to "white people" who set up a racial hierarchy with themselves at the top, Africans at the bottom, and everyone else in between. Then, for centuries, they enslaved others to do all the work and, mostly, they enslaved Africans for racial reasons. But, in fact, the most extensive slave holding, both in terms of time and space, was done by Hispanics, both Spanish and Portugese, on territory that never becane part of the US.. Yet the report often includes these events as when it speaks of "North and South America." And it includes other events that happened on land that eventually became part of the US but which was at the time controlled by the Spanish Empire. "White people" are supposed to have enslaved Africans in Florida in 1545. No, Hispanics enslaved Africans in 1545. "White people" enslaved Africans in Texas, the Southwest and California before 1847. No, once again it was Hispanics, who were Spanish subjects, who enslaved Africans.
The assertion that "white people," who believed in the alleged.racial hierarchy, which puts them above Hispanics, were committing crimes in the Spanish Empire for the last 400 years doesn't hold. And that's the kind of history we are to accept.
The GOP does have a candidate problem. The problem is, only leftist control freaks want to run things. The left have a grooming factory for the AOC types. GOP - they have nothing like that.
Conservatives and small (L) libertarians and independents do not desire a government job.
We go to war with what we have available---> imperfect candidates.
Sadly the left love their imperfect candidates, and promote pure insanity in the name of power.
I doubt Ken Paxton will destroy the US.
Talirico - will.
The left crazies have the corrupt hack media to back them up.
If you want perfect candidates - shut the hell up and go run for office yourself.
"Then, for centuries, they enslaved others to do all the work and, mostly, they enslaved Africans for racial reasons."
The first legal slaveowner in the pre-US colonies was Anthony Johnson...a black man.

“especially for the white educators”
The purest expression of White Privilege over minorities is teachers’ unions. If you’re against them, we can talk; otherwise please go away.
Talerico has a Master's degree in Fakeology, with a BS in Phoneyonics. He loves the camera and has left a trail of words that he won't be able to wiggle out of. He's there, on camera, saying what he believes in, long after these ideas have been accepted as toxic.
Paxton is a man with a trail of accusations, the kind of accusations that you see when someone is good at what he does, so good that you can see the opposition furiously putting them together, one after the other. Is a divorce filing for accused philandery worse than someone that ardently supports child sex surgery? But: he's separated right now, not divorced. Is an engineered impeachment by Democrats masquerading as RINOs a real thing? It didn't result in his removal. Think: Trump impeachment. Not defending Paxton, just noting what I've observed over the years. He fights Democrats on their home field, the cesspit, and they really, really don't like it when that happens.
Paraphrasing Charlie Munger, Talerico is rat poison, squared.
It's worse than that. How much of that $40K goes directly to students' needs?
All you need to do is look at the reading test scores for graduates from the Chicago Public School system.
Nobody cares less about their students than a public school teacher.
Albinophobia? Rabid Diversity, redistributive change schemes, involuntary exploitation, human rites, transhumanism, gender gap in a veritable parade of pride and prejudice.
40K? 40 trillion? Obamacares? Administrative fees.
"We have to understand... that these violent hierarchies, these systems, white supremacy, heteropatriarchy, economic exploitation, have colonized our own minds."
What a poseur.
Without reading other comments yet - I really dislike the "inequality" framework, the relativity thing. Is there "wealth inequality" in the US? Yes - but what does poverty look like here? It looks like no shortage of calories, no shortage of shelter (homelessness is not a phenomenon of *poverty* but if drug use and/or mental illness), no shortage even of access to the high-tech luxuries of our society. How important is it that a poor woman can't afford a Birken or even a Coach bag, as long as she has some kind of bag in which to keep her wallet?
Similarly - do schools in affluent districts have more money than those in poor districts? Yes - but are the poor districts dealing with one textbook per classroom or fifty-year-old textbooks the way they used to? They are not. So what good does it do the *students* for their teachers to dwell on what resources they don't have, when they *do* have the necessities? Teach with what you've got. Don't neglect teaching simply because your classrooms don't have smart boards.
And telling (white) teachers that they must constantly be aware of their privilege is just a way of hobbling them with guilt as teachers.
We had a family over for dinner Saturday night. The wife is finishing her master's degree in education. Somehow the subject of proper grammar came up and she mentioned that they're is a push to allow all sorts of language usage as correct because no culture is better than another. I said it's sad to keep kids in poor socioeconomic areas there because they don't have the proper writing and language skills to move up.
All so some teacher won't feel bad for teaching proper skills. I'm so happy my kids aren't in the public school system.
