An oldie but a goodie amd still relevant. I'm surprised no one had posted it yet.

"Woke" corporate masters: How can we virtue signal, toss a few crumbs, and yet get people fighting so perhaps they'll forget what their benefits and pay are and we won't have to pay them any more? Hmmmm.

CRT (derived from and built upon Critical Theory developed by Herbert Marcuse and Max Horkheimer of the Frankfurt School and school of thought of i.e , Western Marxism) whixh built upon Marx, proponents are obsessed with racial stereotypes, seem to project their racism and/or biases upon others, proffer Gross Generalizations, utilize the Kafka Trap, and/or push “White Fragility”, dispensing a system where accusations of racism are proof, denying it is guilt, and disagreement is racist per their Gross Generalization that racism permeates everything.

If anyone can provide the information here or has any really good links to the full background stories (or at least in-depth ones) on Marcuse, Horkheimer, Marx, and Robin DiAngelo, I would really appreciate it.

Heard CRT was incubated at Harvard during the 70s — as stated in a recent PragerU video.

The commies may have went there for a brief respite after leaving Goethe University Frankfurt, but they found a home in Chicago.

Say what you will about Taibbi but I have found him to be consistently better that 99% of other “Journalists”

not that I always agree with him.

It does. Critical Race Theory culturally appropriated it. Karl Braun and Allen DuMont would be horrified...
