I've read several of these works excited to hear intelligent challenges to my worldview but they always have the opposite effect. The arguments are _so_ bad, so fallacious and ridiculous that I can't help becoming more convinced that they must be wrong. Kendi's grand plan involves an unelected review board with full veto power over any law or policy (no more separation of powers) made at any level of government (no more federalism!). Could someone more sympathetic to these views help me out with what I'm missing?
