    It’s obviously trying to conflate the two.

    No, it’s not. It’s defining the phrase.

    It is saying:

    • Worship of the written word

    Is defined by:

    • honoring only what is written and even then only what is written to a narrow standard, full of misinformation and lies. An erasure of the wide range of ways we communicate with each other.

    It say nothing about the love of reading or writing, or contracts. And what’s worse is that they are very clearly saying that “worship of the written word” is a characteristic/trait of white supremacy, not white supremacy. So you’re missing (it seems willfully at this point) the meaning of what they are saying.

    If you asked any random person what worshiping the written word was

    If you did that, you’d get a million different answers. And that’s why they defined it:

    • honoring only what is written and even then only what is written to a narrow standard, full of misinformation and lies. An erasure of the wide range of ways we communicate with each other.

    they’d probably say “loving reading” or “loving writing” or something to that effect.

    You’re just pulling this out of you ass.

    It’s super obvious propaganda.

    All you’re doing is making up a meaning that very clearly isn’t there, and then getting upset over your own made up meaning.

      What do yall call it? Dogwhistling?

      Worship of the written word sounds like you love reading and writing. Lefties have a consistent problem with calling shit one thing, and trying to define it another. Everyone understands worship to mean ‘love’. Like honestly, do yall really expect us to believe your nonsense? That you guys fucked up the messaging again?

      And even if youre right, honoring contracts and nothing else is a trope of the devil. Trying to make that connection in kids brains is racist as hell.
