Topic	Critical Race Theory
Gaawa_chan 11/08/21 1:07:30 PM #30:	Unbridled9 posted... Critical Race theory is the belief that, basically, all of history is, more or less, a history in which white people did their best to oppress minorities, enslave them, and everything else. That they're basically guilty of all crimes and are nothing more than 'white devils'. Much in the same way that feminist theory says the state should mandate the removal of testicles from all human bodies, basically, and queer theory says that once a week straight people need to be strapped into the stocks for the enjoyment of the gays, more or less. shadowsword87 posted... Oh, feminism for black people. I understand why conservatives are upset that it exists. It's a decent general explanation. It originated out of need to critique laws that sounded racially neutral but continually produced racist outcomes- an obvious example would be the grandfather clause for voting restrictions. Foundational texts include those of American heroes like Frederick Douglass, but the fearmongerers don't want you to actually learn a fucking thing about any of it, as very nicely demonstrated above by Unbridled. Historical erasure is, btw, a key component of revisionism. Having massive, nation-wide meltdowns at the prospect of examining systemic racism in American history should clue you into how these people actually feel about history; they want it to be propaganda, not education. --- Hi <cite>Gaawa_chan posted [p:959808334] in Critical R...
