Yep went through it in 92, 93 again in 98 and 2002. People dont trust in it because the establishment is guilty of abusing it. That is what you obviously dont get. In short folks are either waiting for the other shoe to drop or for the part 2 to come out with the gotcha moment.

Good question. At least we know, thanks to Biden himself, that those little Black kids sure love rubbing the hair on his legs.

So explain to me how it's just not another hate and punish Whitey theory because the Black community can't be held accountable for their own actions and circumstances.

You seem to be very rigid in your thought process.

CRT is crap. Period. People are hardwired to behave a certain way, to associate with individuals who are similar and be wary of those who are not. For me the primary similarity I look for is behavior and values. Act like a criminal, be dishonest or avoid personal responsibility and I'm going to avoid you. CRT is just another way to be a victim - which is to avoid personal responsibility. If you think you are a victim of actual racism, plenty of laws are on the books to deal with it.

To summarize, I don't like you because you are defending victim culture. I don't know and don't care what your skin color is.

Stand up for those who have actually been harmed but don't tear down the society that gives you the freedom to do so.

Perhaps your passion would be appreciated if you dealt with promoting positive things such as family, education, and avoiding violence and crime to those of all colors who need to hear, see and live a more positive life.

CRT = hate. Hate multiplies hate. CRT is not a solution, it's simply a way to place blame and avoid responsibility.

You can believe whatever you want about "victim culture" or "personal responsibility".

Everything is addressed. In 5 words. Let me repeat: Critical Race Theory is crap.

It is victim culture.

It does promote hate.

Look at how it is being applied rather than what some out of touch academic writes to obfuscate the real intent.

One last note, people see things differently. Some read between the lines and interpret things differently. Get used to it. Live and let live, don't try to force your thoughts onto others. Instead of telling people they are wrong, sell your product (CRT). Just remember not everyone is going to buy it.

Have a great day.
