    “the critical race theory is a fact” from the same people who demand “in English, Einstein!” It says something about how information is transferred and observations are treated in their neck of the woods. When’s the last time you heard a lefty tell you that you’ve read too much theory? That you’re too well connected? That your weed’s too loud? That your drip’s too drippy?

      I don’t think they even know how to summarize it or describe what it means. Critical race theory is just “what if the reason black people are overrepresented in prison is because the justice system is racist”?

      I think what conservatives believe it means is “white people need to apologize for being white every moment of the day because every white person is personally responsible for injustice, including children”

        It’s like when Florida had to define what woke meant in court and came up with something along the lines of “a belief that there are systemic injustices in society and that they should be addressed”.
