Calling intersectional Kendi-DiAngeloism "Critical Race Theory" was always going to fall prey to the selective pedantry of the left professoriat
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        It had to become much coarser, stupider, and more propagandistic to arrive at this point where this is being taught to STEM teachers...
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        But really all the fundamental errors in reasoning and proportionality were present in those articles appearing in Harvard Law Review in 1983
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        People who talk like this in 2021, speaking a jargon existing in a self-enclosed system of reference immune to correction or criticism, are the weaponized superbug version of the core CRT claims https://twitter.com/graceisforyou/status/1386740587194327041?s=20">https://twitter.com/graceisfo...
                        
                            
                            
                            
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        But this resulting product has gone through decades of being fashioned into a blunt instrument of coercion, in chat rooms, tumblr posts, academic echo chambers, flame wars, campus and workplace meltdowns
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        We need a new term to describe this vision of the world as a matrix of interlocking oppression. P
People who want to analyze this sociological phenomenon without taking on the baggage of terms like "Cultural Marxism" are turning to a useful neologism: https://hedgehogreview.com/blog/thr/posts/the-problem-with-western-religions-on-campus">https://hedgehogreview.com/blog/thr/...

                        The original stuff was more sophisticated than the inane crap being taught in diversity seminars throughout corporate America.

                        You want to avoid sounding Glenn Beck-ish or Trump Jr.-ish (or like lefties ascribing the war in Iraq to Leo Strauss) and recognize that the reason-resistant superbug that took over institutional America in 2020 is an 8th generation mutated variant
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        What makes the ideological succession distinctive is the belief that the different matrices of oppression are unitary and must be resisted all at once -- abolish prisons, police, standardized testing, the gender binary, whiteness, nuclear families, conceived as a single project
