"Social Justice" Indoctrination In CA Schools Encourages Students To Clap And Chant To Quetzalcoatl, Tezkatlipoka

The latter, with which I was unfamiliar...on account of his not being listed in D&D Deities and Demigods...is apparently somehow associated with human sacrifice. (He's also apparently known as "enemy of both sides".)
   Anyway...at what point does this shit become too crazy for the trailing edge of the left to keep going along with it?:
This religious concept is fleshed out in the model curriculum’s official “ethnic studies community chant.” The curriculum recommends that teachers lead their students in a series of indigenous songs, chants, and affirmations, including the “In Lak Ech Affirmation,” which appeals directly to the Aztec gods. Students first clap and chant to the god Tezkatlipoka—whom the Aztecs traditionally worshipped with human sacrifice and cannibalism—asking him for the power to be “warriors” for “social justice.” Next, the students chant to the gods Quetzalcoatl, Huitzilopochtli, and Xipe Totek, seeking “healing epistemologies” and “a revolutionary spirit.” Huitzilopochtli, in particular, is the Aztec deity of war and inspired hundreds of thousands of human sacrifices during Aztec rule. Finally, the chant comes to a climax with a request for “liberation, transformation, [and] decolonization,” after which students shout “Panche beh! Panche beh!” in pursuit of ultimate “critical consciousness.”

   Oh, and: "healing epistemologies" LOOOOL. Fuck "healing epistemologies." Anything that could accurately be described by that phrase is bad epistemology. Lysenkoism. The politicization and theraputization of inquiry.
