Rufo to Joy Ann Reid: You Just Say Everything You Want and Dance Around It

EXCERPT:

RUFO: "What you’ve done with tonight’s segment is exactly what I’m fighting against. I’m fighting against the manipulation of language. I'm fighting against language deconstruction —"

REID: "Right, you’re fighting against wokeness and you don’t like corporate wokeness, etc. I get it. I get it."

RUFO: "— and I'm trying to basically load all of these euphemistic terms with subversive content, because otherwise you just say whatever you want and then you back away from it and you dance around it. It’s not going to happen. Parents all over this country, they know what’s happening in schools. They know what’s happening in our public institutions and you’re seeing people revolt against this divisive identity politics. You can dance all you want, but you’re not going to stop people from understanding what’s happening in the classrooms."
