Michelle Goldberg complains in the pages of The New York Times about how it is the left wing that is currently a victim of cancel culture—thanks to the right, which is trying to destroy “critical race theory.”
Sounding alarm at the global counter-movement, she writes that
Critical race theory, the intellectual tradition undergirding concepts like white privilege and microaggressions, is often blamed for fomenting what critics call cancel culture. And so, around America and even overseas, people who don’t like cancel culture are on an ironic quest to cancel the promotion of critical race theory in public forums.
What are some examples of cancellations? Donald Trump’s order to cancel federal critical race theory propaganda, now reversed by the Biden administration, and the state-led fightbacks in Great Britain and France.
Goldberg is not the only one being swept away in this narrative. Jeffrey Sachs is bitter in the pages of Arc Digital on why the left is the original victim. Apparently, government after government is legislating the woke out of academy. Not just right-wing regimes such as Poland, Hungary, or Brazil, but also Britain, France and, of course, state governments in the United States.
But is that purge actually happening? Some differences can be seen in K-12 education and higher education, but the rejection of critical race theory, and the supposed threat this rejection represents, is vastly exaggerated.

Critical Race Theory is like the KKK, only its blacks who are practicing black supremacy with the help of far left, deranged whites.
Well, let’s either cancel it or let’s rumble. Who has time to beat around the bush?
I hope so but it’s got to be more than that. If we are ever going to be a race neutral society(not sure it is really possible) we have to rid ourselves of the likes the Black & Hispanic caucuses in addition to the plethora of all these race based groups political, lobbying or otherwise. This constant agitation has got to go. Either that or we regroup and we all have race political representation.
Critical Race Theory is how the elites destroy potential competitors among the white middle class, by enlisting blacks to tear uppity whites down.
These spoogebrains moved too fast. They had this.
What changed was that previously it was “all white people in the past were racist.” Now they try to claim that “all white people today” are racist. If they had left it alone, they would have had their agenda.
The Backlash to Critical Race Theory Is on The Way

I like the term coined by the otherwise despicable Van Jones when Trump was elected: “Whitelash.”
ROFL!
That’s some fine reasoning right there!
