> Critical race theory is not yelling to claim every problem is due to racism or oppression.
It largely is these days.
> While I don’t agree with all tenants of the recent evolution of critical race theory, I do with the historical purpose of it.
I don't. It's divisive hateful racist pseudoscientific nonsense that relies on bullying and threats to shut down its critics.
> Fast forward to today and you have a more broad and insistent approach developing with Critical Race Theory. Primarily due to all of the push back on having legitimate societal conversations and decisions about systemic discrimination since the civil right movement in the US (even going back to the 1968 Kerner Commission).
It's always funny when they talk about systemic discrimination while also being the ones trying to institute segregation, keep too many "undesirable" races out of colleges, and generally agitate for institutional racism.
> While the focus now on structural determinism, the critiques of liberalism or the use of narratives and lived experiences of CRT might upset you.
My conscience is quite clear, I have never lusted for policies of racism. I have never complained about too many Asians in colleges, for example. I am not a racist. I stand with greats like MLK Jr on the right side of history, and opposite them. I'm not offended by their attempts to invert definitions to absolve themselves and bully me, I'm only offended by their racism.
> CRT is not at all simply what you described.
I disagree, it is very much like what I described.

And for white women as well, who are somehow a protected group. > It's always funny when they talk about systemic discrimination while also being the ones trying to institute segregation, keep too many "undesirable" races out of colleges, and generally agitate for institutional racism. Also they ignore when race actually is an issue, like the totally disproportionate amount of crime and rape committed by black people. They have no problem stereotyping and being racist against Asian and Indian men though.
