"The media has been so captured by grifters like Kendi and DiAngelo"

Its so true, but I just can't figure out why. Its certainly not on the merits of their arguments, theories, or outcomes of their prescriptions. This makes it hard not to entertain conspiracy theories as I am lost trying to come up with how and why these people are given anything more than a polite smile by the rest of society as it passes by them sitting in their own metaphorical little "corner of crazy" from where they are mostly ignored by sane society.
