oh dear, we have a sjw here. Nice to meet you, I am a CRT master, accomplished author via hoaxing a journal. Read the chain
#915 to see the details.
If you also agree with and find nothing wrong with these statements:
"This project works to deepen our understanding of the harm that White teachers do in classrooms"
"The task in this chapter is to examine, deconstruct, and critique the existence of whiteness"
"A positive white identity is an impossible goal. White identity is inherently racist; white people do not exist outside the system of white supremacy. "
"Just as White supremacy, whiteness itself lives in white bodies, communities, and structures"
Understand you are the racist here also to most people outside of your cult like power based racism dynamics.
As promised, please let me look you in the eyes, and say "go f*ck youself,
racist." :)

They've redefined "racism" and tied it to some bs power dynamic (aka by their definition it's not possible to be racist towards Whites oh and "white" Jews, among other ethnic groups), along with a whole slew of other "feel good" words. This ideology, which has been called many things, including Grievance Studies, intersectionalism, and Social Justice, or just critical theories in general, cloaks itself in beautiful words (e.g. “inclusion,” “diversity”) but is in fact in service of the opposite. It is racist, sexist, and limiting.
The most important thing for decent, rational, liberal people to understand about Social Justice is that it's always making its asks from within applied postmodern theory. It's therefore almost always asking for something very distinct and more demanding than it sounds like it is.
In this ideology, a panel that is 100% black women is 100% diverse because it isn't speaking from the "dominant" perspective that's assumed to pervade and underwrite all of society in applied postmodern theory. Yes, this is counter-intuitive, and it's what "diversity" really means as per stand point theory and intersectionality.
Your experience trying to talk about racism with these folks is critical race theory in a nutshell. It contains a few kernels of truth. Beyond those kernels, which are nearly irrelevant, it's utter bullshit. Not only is it totally BS, it's a specific kind of BS designed to make YOU feel guilty enough to believe and repeat it.
"Diversity" pushed by Social Justice is a justified form of naked discrimination. "Inclusion" means a demand for restricted speech. "Equity" is affirmative action that goes further and cuts down. To them, it is ALL "justified."
They know it's completely indefensible if the public ever finds out what it actually is, which is why they often just call people names (Nazi, neonazi, white supremacist, kkk, etc) while refuse to engage in rational discussions. Oh actually, apparently logic and rl
You should read some of my other posts, just skip the ones that weren't so great and the ones I was wrong. ;) /s
I probably know more about the nature of critical theories than most here, having been inspired by the Sokal Squared Three. In fact, I might have surpassed them in one particular regard:
I have managed to get one paper of the "anti-racism" flavor (so far, still cranking out more in my dark boiler room) into the publishing process. It is incredibly easy to hoax journals in these "studies".
It is so easy because the manuscript are essentially introductions to ideas, ideas that are unverifiable, unfalsifiable, but also irresistible. Yes, outlandish ideas that are irresistible to these race hustlers and grifters. These ideas are not research, not by a long shot. But they are presented as "facts" that are then used to drive diversity policies within and outside academia.
If you are an outsider and manage to publish pure made up gibberish that are indistinguishable with "real scholarships", then it is not the review process, it's the field. I started reading/learning about critical theories less than 6 months ago, from Crenshaw to Coates, from DiAngelo to McIntyre, from Davies to Kendi, I read them all. Now, my "work" fits perfectly with these "scholars".
Some People in the critical theory field DEFENDED (still do) the idea that the penis is a social construct AFTER the idea was revealed to be a hoax. If people in the field can't distinguish between made up stuff (that also included very questionable methods, like deleting data) and real research, then again, it is not the peer-review process, it is the field itself.
My one take away for you is this: Critical race theory doesn't exist to improve race relations or issues related to race. It exists to find racism in everything and to make all such accusations stick. It is itself racist in nature and a parasitic disease.
Wanna know what my hoax paper is about? I wrote about how some measures, which are essentially segregation, but with blacks living in better conditions than whites, is positive for an anti-racist environment. Basically, enforced segregation with the whites living in crappy conditions is a good thing for the cause of anti-racism. lol right?
This BS is hardly out of line when compared with what previous "scholars" in this field have established as infallible rules of engagement:
"This project works to deepen our understanding of the harm that White teachers do in classrooms"
"The task in this chapter is to examine, deconstruct, and critique the existence of whiteness"
"A positive white identity is an impossible goal. White identity is inherently racist; white people do not exist outside the system of white supremacy. "
"Just as White supremacy, whiteness itself lives in white bodies, communities, and structures"
Intersectionality will eventually lead to calls for segregation because the claim is that different groups are inherently against each other and can’t work together without oppression.
The true face of this ideology can be seen in Mike Nayna's part 2 of the evergreen documentary. It becomes self-evident in the part where the students demanded the guy to keep lowering his hands.
It's about Power. Power to oppress others. Nothing more.
