Is this a Valid Definition of Critical Race Theory?

[Geoist]

Why are you so afraid to discuss the topic you throw out ad hominem afer ad hominem?

Where's the ad hominem attack? This is rich coming from one of the biggest Trump supporters. You guys LOVED his ad hominem attacks.

 

[Geoist]

yeah i doubt that, he defended it and I dont know why ANYONE would watch it

You just made a 'Nuh-uh!' argument. Very lame. Let me know if you ever have anything substantive to contribute to the conversation.

Asked and answered. Well done.

Unless an 8 y/o is in law School CRT does not affect public school students.

Calling out the hypocrisy of the Trump supporters is considered an ad hominem attack? Jesus Christ.

Well, it could also qualify as a Strawman, either way is just stupid.

Naw, you just don't want to admit the truth. Conservatives LOVED Trump for his constant ad hominem attacks. You were/are one of his biggest supporters. Obviously, ad hominem attacks don't bother you (unless supposedly a leftist does it).

You’re gonna need more straw.

No, Trump did the divisive Trump schtick. I never saw a US president go so out of the way to serve only his base. He was almost vindictive to people who did not support him (including people that did, but lived in states whose electoral votes did not go his way.) So spare us this innocent poor, misunderstood Trump. It is not only stale, its a false narrative.

BTW. Being well educated it great. It doesn't make you right, it just makes you well educated. The words of well educated people do get my attention, but there are a lot of well educated wack-a-doos out there as well.



No, its a definition for those that want to whitewash the problem. It is actually rather dismissive on her part either overtly because she doesn't want to talk about it or implicitly because she really doesn't grasp the issue.

CRT tells us that racism is systematic (structural).... not in every person. There is no presumption that racism occurs in every circumstance, just an acknowledgement that society has stacked the deck against those that are not WASP. That is a big difference from what she is saying here.

This is from a wiki article on the subject that I believe is far more spot on: "....Critical race theory is loosely unified by two common themes: first, that white supremacy, with its societal or structural racism, exists and maintains power through the law;[6] and second, that transforming the relationship between law and racial power, and also achieving racial emancipation and anti-subordination more broadly, is possible.[7]..."

People that do not see the systematic nature of racism are either dismissive or don't grasp the issue.

LOL

Thanks for providing that misinformation/disinformation Wiki page.

All one needs to do is note it refers to the Frankfort School as it's foundation, and see it also referenced in the bottom of the page:

• Frankfurt School
• Freudo-Marxism

Also from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankfurt_School

Left-leaning Liberals, Socialists, and Marxists always like to baffle with B.S. when they cannot dazzle with brilliance. Yes CRT gained traction in the 70's because by that time elements of the Frankfurt School having well-established themselves in American Academia starting in the 1930's focused on educating teachers in Critical Theory. By the 1970's many teachers were steeped in such teaching methodologies, and CRT was a natural outgrowth designed to use the successful Equal Rights movement to channel national divisions. https://www.thoughtco.com/frankfurt-school-3026079

And you refuse to admit reality.

And you refuse to recognize it; your Trump psychosis has damaged your optic nerves.

 

[Geoist]

LOL

Don't believe you ever answered my questions, CA:

1. Did systemic racism ever exist?
2. If it existed, when exactly did it end?

 

[Geoist]

And you refuse to recognize it; your Trump psychosis has damaged your optic nerves.

Is that like the psychosis Trump supporters experience with the Clintons, Biden, Obama, Soros, Harris, etc etc?

Nope, it’s the kind when a lefty’s entire brain collapses into a pile of fetid goo and he babbles idiotic nonsense; kinda like your posting chain on this thread.

I would disagree and recite the Great Moderate-the Late David Broder's comment from over 30 years ago where he noted the goal of the US Left went from transforming the USA into another USSR (after the fall of the wall) to seeking to balkanize the USA into warring ethnic special interest groups. crap like reparations, or affirmative action are both symptoms of that disease

David Broder Is a Gasbag

Perhaps Broder's bed-wetting tantrum against Reid was spurred by the certain knowledge that while Harry Reid has been telling hard truths, Mr. Broder has been falling hard for transparent lies.

Wait, your quoting a quintessential Establishment-defender to criticize the left?

Lets see-Nixon hated Broder, and Democrat fluffer and suck up Paul Begala hated Broder. Sounds like he's right in the middle as I noted. He was an intellectual giant compared to Begala

Who should I quote-Buckley, Brookhiser or Volokh?

Is that really how it works? First your argument was "30 years ago", now you are going back to Nixon.....to create a lower limit? Broder changed a lot from 1970....to the late 90's, to say nothing of what he became as an ass kisser of the neocons in the early 2000's. Defending Shrub's invasion AND Katrina response shows a definite LOSS of intellect.

WTF does this have to do with CRT anyway?

Begala spent most of his life giving hummers to Democrat politicians. Him whining about Broder is proof that Broder is a moderate. and Begala had nothing to say about Broder's accurate assessment of the left circa 1988 or so

first off, you have no, none, ZERO reference to what Broder said.....and I will never depend upon your word for anything.....which is why you lose every debate we have.....you do not back up your arguments. AND AGAIN, at the end, Broder was not a "moderate", neocon ass kissers are not moderate in any stretch of the term. If you want to argue he thought "the left" wanted culture wars, it more than proves he wasn't a "moderate". We know who strives to foment culture wars.

Now I will tie this into the topic......CRT is an explanation of how and why we have huge disparities. It is not a cause of the disparities.....and the right wingers like yourself that get themselves fired up over this are simply looking for a way to excuse our history. We in AZ saw this same thing play out with Hispanic history being temporarily banned in Pima county. It didn't work, the courts overturned what the state ED board tried to do.
