A critique of critical race theory
American Thinker ^ | 8 Nov, 2021 | Eric Utter

The left has some pretty Klannish ideas about who Black people actually are.

Does Crappy Critical Race Theory hold that as long as there is still one white person left in the country, it is systemically, structurally racist? Are CRTers saying the only way to eliminate racism is to eliminate the white race? Because that's what it appears they are implying. And that seems as racist—systemically and structurally racist—as it is possible to be. In fact, it would effectively be genocide.

So why, then, do literally millions of people of color (POC) from around the world want to come here? Why do they go to so much trouble and effort to come to this nation? Do they hate themselves? Are they all masochists who wish to be systemically oppressed? Are they all stupid? Perhaps they are all white supremacists, too, à la Larry Elder, Candace Owens, Winsome Sears, et al?

It seems odd to me that CRT states that skin color must be the primary way to identify and categorize people. Especially so when it obviously, simultaneously holds that the color of one’s skin does not determine one’s character, but that what one believes and the policies one may espouse does. So that to be considered to be Black, one must believe a certain set of things, particularly in the need for Critical Race Theory. Stray far from the ideological plantation and you are not authentically Black. Or, as President Biden put it, “You ain’t Black.” But he believes in CRT, so he is Black, and we all know Blacks say “ain’t” rather than “are not,” right?

The democRATs seem to believe that black people are easier to manipulate than white people so they actually would favor the concept of white people being replaced by brown people. They are actively implementing that plan right now.

After they eliminate the white race then do they go after light-skinned negroes?

CRT is being used to ridicule and humiliate White people.

Straight out of Alinsky's handbook:

RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

CRT is a Marxist alternative to the failed economic division tool that worked well in eastern Europe to divide and disrupt the political structure that led to communist take over. That “disparity” didn’t work in western cultures because of generally good economic conditions and capitalist wealth sharing.

Hence, make race the big issue and bribg down tge house. I don’t think it will work in the West either. We have good overall race relations and intermarriage etc.

Just more evil leftist b.s..

More or less.

They claim that eliminating everything that makes life worthwhile for white people ("whiteness") will suffice, and that your biological survival will be permitted.

But once the program is turned over to the Tonton Macoutes or whoever will have the machetes, simply lowering your standards won't be enough.

Critical Race Theory holds that logic, facts, and reason are racist, because they disprove Critical Race Theory.

There is a language war going on and it is important.

The correct way to speak is “There are black people and there are white people.”

The incorrect Newspeak is either “There are People of Color and there are White People,” or “There are Black people and there are White people.”

You don’t need to capitilize the B in black or the W in white. You don’t need to refer to people as “People of Color” or, conversely, “People Of Paleness” or whatever other bullshit words they want to invent.

Word choice REALLY matters moving forward.

They are truly trying to control the language and history.

All you need to know about CRT is that ‘Rev.’ Wright, the O’Bozo's ‘pastor’, had no compunction about spewing “God Damn America” in his so called 'church', for 20 years!! THAT clown was calling it a religion and conned the O'bama's (and many others) into swallowing it, whole!

You may recall that the video of his BS ‘church service’ made national media attention during the Presidential election . . . but in NO way impeded O’Bozo getting into the WH. No one evn blinked or challenged any of it!

If you wonder where it all started, it goes back at least that far.

Sadly there is no shortage of white people willing to believe that a man can become a woman or that the police should be defunded either. Lifelong resident of Commiefornia here.

Glad to meet another universal lower-caser! I don’t capitalize “black” or “white” unless it is the first word in a sentence. Because I believe we are all more than our skin color. What a concept.
