Critical race theory is something very specific: It’s an attempt to deal with how race affects even neutral seeming laws. That’s what it actually is. And yet, over the past year or so, it has become so many other things that people don’t like about how people talk about race. It is important to actually define these terms.
If you don’t like the book White Fragility, just say you don’t like that book—and explain why. Don’t try to lump that into this whole CRT label. […]
Take white privilege, for instance. Most people have what I would call a fluency privilege. As a stutterer in a world that is built on fluency, they have a massive advantage over me. I am not saying that to try to make you feel guilty about your fluency, and I am not trying to say that I am less equal because I stutter.
And yet, in a country that was founded on race-based chattel slavery…

CRT is a way they think they can get what they want. What it’s going to end up doing is get them what they DON’T WANT. They’re just not smart enough to realize that.
I like that “communistic claptrap”!!!
That depends on what they want. I believe they’ve maxed out the opportunity for capitalizing on dividing Americans, so they are focusing on destroying white people’s economic opportunities in order to come to the rescue and get white people to vote based on their skin colour.
Actually I call it Marxist Race Theory.
Substitute “racism” for “critical race theory”.
It’s all a cover for communism.
They really haven’t thought it through as well as that. CRT is really rooted in Marxist greed. The tool they’re using this time is racism and revenge. They’re using it like a pry bar to get some kind of crazy revolution.
They’ll lose.
Critical Racist Theory.
And yet, in a country that was founded on race-based chattel slavery, if I say that race has offered some people more advantages, that is suddenly taken as this massive offense. That is something that I have to push back on. A lot.

To make his silly assed point, Mr. Baily ignores the Elephant in the room. 600,000 Americans died in order to STOP the Democratic Party from continuing slavery. Then, he ignores that trillions of cash and benefits have been given to blacks by whites with no discernible improvement in their lives. In fact, the average black in an inner city is worse off today than he was in 1960. Little black girls were not getting killed by stray bullets fired by young black males in 1960. Mr. Baily’s whole argument is demonstrable bullshit.
It also affects EVERYTHING.
Example: the lie that CRT isn’t taught K-12.
Sure, they don’t teach that academic theory to kindergartners. But it affects everything from:
* discipline policies
* “character education” that is explicitly “anti-racist”
* every book in the humanities (English, history) program
* every new book in the library
* math, science and other subjects having their lessons aligned to reflect the new approved worldview
Hey, if we gotta take BLM, then you gotta take CTR.
Sauce for the goose, Baby.
Well, no. CRT is based on premises as false (and ridiculous) as this one. Accept them and everything else equally false and ridiculous follows. Reject them and you're a racist white supremacist. Stupid game, and only stupid people play it.
It’s simply neo-racism. Transfer hatred from one group to another.
Then target, isolate, and wage war upon political enemies. Just like their Satan loving commie hero Saul Alinsky.

Math isn’t racist? Who knew?
This article is total BS. A pseudo intellectual attempt to justify the non justifiable.
Stop calling it... global warming, we all know it’s climate change.
We just use the names you (not you olog) give it.
Crt is just one little piece of a great big critical theory (communist) pie.
I agree.
If you don’t like the book White Fragility, just say you don’t like that book—and explain why …What happens when you substitute Mein Kampf for White Fragility in that sentence?
