But CRT doesn't exist.....But somehow it should influence medical treatment?

[e7alr]

Sometimes a misrepresentation is so obvious as to be absurd. CRT is not an examination of history. CRT is a dishonest attempt to reinterpret history and assign unsupported macro motivations to support a political objective. It makes false historic, economic and political assertions, then accuses any who challenge these falsehoods as either a racist, or a tool of racists. Its purpose is to serve as a replacement for class warfare, which failed as a sufficient Marxist call to action in the US.

And when the community catches on to it and isn’t cowed by the accusations of racism, the next false charge is that the community just doesn’t want to teach “black” history.

It is always better to infiltrate and subvert as much of the target as possible before resorting to blunt force. If the frog can be kept ignorant long enough one might only need force to retain power rather than to seize it.

The retreat back into the motte to launch the flaming arrows and boiling oil of “RACISM!!!”

Domestic…but demonic is good description.

I was hoping for demonic so I could make a comment about the FBI hiring priests and demon hunters.

[e7alr]

A catch phrase being used is “black centered history.” The very premise of the argument is a bigotry motivated outlook to teaching history.

You keep teaching me new labels for rhetorical tools I understand, but didn’t know had an actual name.

Speaking of Rhetorical, is Rhett still on the board?

[Rurudyne]

Yeah, like that’s a righteous option!

Better dead than red!

And best of all that the Reds be dead….

I only recently learned the grammar myself.

No, I don’t think so.

That’s too bad, I enjoyed her perspective.

Why is that? Are all these people who use his framework and frameworks based on his knowingly pushing for communism and lying to us or are they sleeper agents?

Because without praxis, there is no “framework”.

Some point further along on the continuum, yes.

I have no doubt this generation will do it right this time.

Sorry, I think this is nonsense.

Because you haven’t studied the “framework”.

I’ve read enough about it to know that either there’s a massive coverup by sociologists hiding their attempts to cause a revolution and bring about communism or you’re playing guilt by association. Just because you use conflict theory to examine history doesn’t mean your goal is to fire up people and cause a revolution.

Sounds like you’re reading in a lot more to CRT then actually is there. What’s a conclusion of CRT that you disagree with? I promise I won’t call you a racist or a tool of racists.

[WuWei]

As @e7alr has patiently explained, you are incorrect.

@fallenturtle

Just because you use conflict theory to examine history doesn’t mean your goal is to fire up people and cause a revolution.

This is wrong. The whole concept is designed to develop critical consciousness so you realize (awake) to the “fact” that no matter how happy you think you are, you are actually miserable and oppressed. You just don’t know it.

So you’ll rise up.

It’s evil.

This society in which we live does not immiserate the workers but helps them to build a better life.

Just because you ascribed these motivations to people based on your own interpretation of what these guys wrote doesn’t make your ascriptions correct. It’s a conspiracy theory that anyone who uses the writings and frameworks of Marx as the basis of analysis or uses a framework of someone else’s that was in turn based on Marx is doing so in an effort to foment a communist revolution. You fail to accept that many scholars take an a la carte approach to Marx and his writings.

@e7alr

That incredibly broad.

Not sure why you think its blind… CRT is generally about connecting the dots, not baseless blind assumptions.

Would say its its true or false that on average urban/suburban African Americans live in more rundown and impoverished neighborhoods than urban/suburban white people?

Actually that is precisely what they’re saying…they just don’t come out and say they’re Neo-Marxist.

Not playing plausible deniability game with you. Your posts speaks for emselves.

You made a claim, but you refuse to back it up… so why bother making the claim?
