CRT is really an attempt to explain why minorities as a group, principally blacks, do not excel economically in the society of American opportunity. Economic failure results in a host of other societal ills, such as criminal activity. CRT believes that all racial groups are equally capable on an even playing field and should perform equally to whites. They equate an uneven playing field to “white privilege”.

Upon examining the premise of equality of capability and the societal construct of the playing field, there are two possible conclusions, either the premise of equality of capability is false, or indeed the economic playing field is biased in favor of whites.

The elephant in the room says that much has been studied regarding the lesser innate intelligence of American blacks. The “Bell Curve” and other studied around the world have come to this conclusion. It does not mean the black Americans are less human or less valuable in the eyes of God. So I pose that the premise of equality of capability is false. Why should this not be possible? White men can’t jump.

The minority standing on the sideline only see the outcome of the creativity, dedication and hard work of those that choose to compete. He assumes that all those people have succeeded with capabilities similar to his. This is an error. But his conclusion is that the playing field must be tipped in favor of the whites. What to do?

The best revenge for minorities against White Privilege is to compete and succeed. If you believe that the "playing field" is not level then you have two choices, compete anyway and work even harder to succeed, or go find another playing field.

The other playing field would be to succeed within your own minority community. Black owned businesses in Black neighborhoods, buying from Black distributors and producers.

Minorities will never find a solution in expecting whites to tip the playing field in their direction. The two groups have a completely different view of the field of competition. I think that whites go about their lives competing on the field of life and don't even see the blacks on the sidelines. Blacks stand on the sidelines and have no idea how to get on the field. For some reason they think they need to ask permission of the whites to play?

Just step on the field and compete! Or don't. It’s up to you. But don't blame it on whites if you can't.

No, you have this all wrong. Democrats decided to use a technique called IDENTITY POLITICS back when President Johnson proposed the WELFARE STATE as a means to maintain Democrat power. Since then, Democrat thinking has always been cast in a container of victimhood and victim groups who need government support and supervision.

So, as you said, the problem of this “not working” gets more acute each year as the supposed victims are not allowed out of their ghettos or to advance via systematic destruction of all of the precursors to success. (Family, Stability, Safety, Independence, Property Ownership) Anyone who read David Horowitz’s book “Radical Son” should remember what he had to say about “Women’s Liberation” which was very much a Marxist stalking horse that offered easy sexuality for guys and identity and freedom for women at the cost of their very lives. It was couched in terms much like Black Lives Matter that became logic traps that exist today.

Still Democrats have a huge problem selling their program, especially when you look at Democrat majority cities that are hell holes, every one. And, that problem is both, finding someone to blame and maintaining their hold on the intellectual communities that support these organizations. CRT is aimed squarely at the economic elites trying to misdirect their attention from the deep racism that is inherent in their assumptions that minorities NEED AID to survive and thus they feel compassion but also contempt for these same folks who are “damaged” somehow transgenerationally from SLAVERY but not from FATHERLESSNESS and CHAOTIC HOME LIVES and POOR SCHOOLS.

Blacks especially but other minority communities have serious problems that are baked in over 60 years now due to the Great Society and its intentional distruction of the powerful and resouceful families in both the Black and “Poor White Trash” communities. Beyond this, a poor understanding of the dynamics of personality underlies the generalizations that the ignorant apply to RACE but are instead implications of a different balance of strengths then what the “intellectual” class enjoys.

But, it has nothing to do with RACE and everything to do with family history, values and interpersonal support systems that GOVERNMENT is the most poorly equiped to salvage. However, churches who actually believe in God and make it their mission to save souls end up saving the whole person, their families and thier communities. No other answer will work, and the Govement isn’t a factor and shouldn’t be.
