Maybe I a misconstruing this, but are you saying if Kamala was successful she would have destroyed the republic? Just curious, but in what way? I kind of seen for the most part a continuation of Biden.
I believe the Democratic Party leadership became enthralled by Critical Theory ideology about 2008.
The US does have a social power structure issue.
Who said those were not problems? The Democratic Party was already addressing those without Critical Theory.
In the hard sciences, even in softer sciences like economics, theories are explanations of observed facts. Critical Theory was developed to analyze the fact of the observed exploitive relationship of capital over labor. Denounce the theory if you will, but the fact remains. As a theory, it doesn't map very well onto the culture war issues, and I agree with you that it is not very useful for that purpose, but the facts remain. What you need is a better theory. Just denouncing CRT is not going to get it.
That's the norm because there are some people that will slander a political opponent and go along with it, Russia
You mentioned about the boss not liking red pens and the surfs follows which made me think of Obama and Russia hoax and all those who kept up.
Critical Race Theory does not propose a satisfactory fix. When you read to the end of the book, so to speak, its final vision is unsatisfactory. The final chapter of Critical Race Theory is the elimination of "whiteness" and all culture of "whiteness" wherever it appears.
Yes. I don't think Critical theory "sets up". What it does is defines what is, and has always been a reality. I just wanted to understand why you thought, and in what way, both parties are a danger to the republic. I just don't see what critical theory advocates as dangerous to the republic as a group who literally put in place a plan to ignore election results and steal the election replete with allowing a riot to unfold for their own end. But that's just me.
First, I disagree that some kind of "grand unified theory" is necessarily needed. Most nations haven't and don't use such a thing as their national ideology. Grand unified theories capture the fancies of academics and ideologues, but they are not necessary for functional governance. The US had already gotten onto a solid path toward racial reconciliation (something CRT asserts is impossible and undesirable).
What this bear-of-little-brain got was that “critical-theory” is the academic version of “forever-populism”.
I guess we are populist within our political party my we all want enemies
I guess it works both ways, my only experience with CRT is when my son worried for his grade by speaking his mind against the institution.
Well, yes, the "powers-that-be" are always the enemy in any version of CT, but that group changes depending on the version of CT.
"Intersectionality" has a different meaning depending on whether you're talking to white feminists or black feminists.
