When perusing the news, I spend little to no time on FOX News for various reasons that I won’t spend time on here.
I normally only watch FOX News when I’m visiting my parents. :) Which is about two nights every other month (they live across state.)
Or, I catch a FOX News clip here and there while surfing through online news sites.
That doesn’t mean the network that fired Tucker Carlson is 100 percent worthless—although Tucker’s departure drops it down to a 90% waste of time, in my opinion.
However, today I came across a brief segment FOX did five days ago that’s worth sharing.
The segment starts out comparing “modern wokeism” to “Mao’s China”, or the communist cultural revolution that took place in the 1960s and 1970s.
Then the FOX host (a brunette? Surprising.) brings on a woman named Xi Van Fleet—a survivor of China’s communist revolution who experienced firsthand the horrors of old school wokeism in her country during her youth. At one point, she talks about how her school was closed for two years while the teachers were indoctrinated (brainwashed) to only teach and promote what Mao and “the Party” approved.
“Cancel culture” is a similar phenomenon to what took place in Mao’s revolution. We are already seeing people getting persecuted for different beliefs that don’t line up with the regime’s narrative.
Mao’s cultural revolution also involved the destruction of cultural artifacts—like statues.
Sound familiar?
China during their communist revolution also removed religion, and America is growing increasingly hostile towards religion these days.
A Colorado teacher said there were Marxists and Leninists among the AFT union affiliate in Colorado during a speech in May as he called for a "FORCEFUL cultural revolution," Fox News Digital found.
Tim Hernandez is a teacher at Aurora West Preparatory Academy in the Aurora Public Schools District, according to its website. He has a signaled that he was including lessons on communist theory in his classroom.
The district did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
For example, to engage young children in his lens of society, Hernandez said they should be showed "A Bug's Life" followed by a lesson on "proletariat revolution," meaning a social revolution in which the working class attempts to overthrow the bourgeoisie.
"A lot of people call me a 'unicorn.' I am not an anomaly. I am a testament to the work we still have to do; this is sacred; this is powerful; this is necessary. I tell my students the truth," he said, according to his notes from a Memphis rally in September 2021 reviewed by Fox News.
Hernandez also said that theories should be implemented into tangible actions, including in schools, during a May 8 rally attended by members of the AFT's Colorado affiliate.
"I want to tear some s---t up it out for you. Are you ready?" Hernandez said.
"What I think is happening in our schools, what I think is showing up in my classroom, is a lot of the things that we get into ideological circles up here. We like to compete who knows Marx better, who knows these things better, who's a Leninist. Listen, all right, I'll give you a real take on this s---t. Kids don't care," he said.
"Yes, it's important to know theory. But you have to do some practices, you have to get out into the streets. You have to get into your workplace. You have to go to your families. If we are just sitting, talking in an ideological circle, our kids are still going to schools that are underfunded where they are investing more in their failure than in their success."
"Your [communist] theory will not save you. The revolution… will happen in the hood. It will not be led by who understands Lenin best, it will not be led by the deepest Marxists. The revolution will be led by the people…. And I say all of this because I'm a teacher."
Fox News Digital also probed into Hernandez's public social media, and found the teacher called for a "FORCEFUL cultural revolution," particularly against American "whiteness" and "white supremacy."
"If white people spent HALF of the time they spend trying to distance themselves from their whiteness and instead spent it actually deconstructing systems of white supremacy, where would we be?" he asked. "[S]ystems of white supremacy are upheld by individuals- to remove individuality from this conversation is unproductive… I am absolutely advocating for a cultural revolution where we dismantle individual and systemic white supremacy," he said in January 2021.
"We're talking about whiteness and white supremacy. And I'm willing to advocate for any form of disruption to it and every manifestation it has," he said.
"Am I denying the freedom to uphold white supremacy? If so, I am in favor of that denial. And, white supremacy is CURRENTLY upheld by force. So yes, I'm advocating a FORCEFUL cultural revolution wherein we assert the dignity of life for all at the expense of white supremacy.
"I am always going to be 'divisive' to those upholding, benefiting from and defending systems of white supremacy," Hernandez wrote on Twitter. He did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
Hernandez was previously fired at another school in Denver Public Schools after being called "aggressive, divisive and attacking" by a school's administrator, he said in a tweet.
Hernandez is only one of many modern-day Maoists who lurk in high schools and universities throughout America.
Let’s pay attention to what our elders are warning us about…okay?
