A lot of America did fall for a conspiracy theory, the Russia Russia Russia hoax which we now know was perpetrated by the Hillary Clinton campaign. I think more people are waking up and are not not as easily fooled. People need to know the difference between the slogan "Black Lives Matter," which means every life is precious and should be embraced by all, versus the organization by that name, which is like critical race theory, Marxist inspired. Let's see what what was written in past years. I have provided a link to the publication Critical Race Theory by De La Garza and Ono. Note the second sentence of the second paragraph:

"It was also an outgrowth of Marxist critical theory . . ." (my highlighting in bold)

As I've said, to boil it down into simple terms, the idea is to use race as a means of division instead of the class war taught by Marxism.

Russia DID try to interfere with the 2016 election and for the benefit of Trump.
What Mueller Found on Russia and on Obstruction: A First Analysis
No, Mueller did not find a criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia, and no, he did not conclude that President Trump had obstructed justice. But Mueller emphatically did not find that there had been “no collusion” either. Indeed, he described in page after damning page a dramatic pattern of Russian outreach to figures close to the president, including to Trump’s campaign and his business; Mueller described receptivity to this outreach on the part of those figures; he described a positive eagerness on the part of the Trump campaign to benefit from illegal Russian activity and that of its cutouts; he described serial lies about it all. And he described as well a pattern of behavior on the part of the president in his interactions with law enforcement that is simply incompatible with the president’s duty to “take care” that the laws are “faithfully executed”—a pattern Mueller explicitly declined to conclude did not obstruct justice.​
But that is not the topic of this thread.
I think many see how pathetic it is to for those on the right to look at "Black LivesBut t Matter" and see "Only Black Lives Matter" rather than "Black Lives Matter TOO" . BLM has faults as do the founders, but they never say other lives don't matter - they are just trying to get the more bigoted factions in the country to see that they are humans with worth, too.

You are simply spewing the right wing spin that CFT is Marxist even though it is not. The authors of CRT drew from many theories and policies.

What comes across from those on the right that rail against CRT is that they are against diversity and equality.

I posted a quote about the origin of critical race theory, you can try and repackage it if you wish.
The NY Post reported: Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors said in a newly surfaced video from 2015 that she and her fellow organizers are “trained Marxists”
BLM co-founder describes herself as 'trained Marxist'

Yes, she said they were trained marxists. They are not perfect.

However, they are not saying ONLY Black lives matter. They are simply saying black lives matter as in "Black Lives Matter TOO". It is a movement that grew because of the many times black people suffered from police brutality and other brutality. Most that marched with BLM (the true protesters not the the mob that started looting) are not marxist in any way. They just want black folks to be valued like others.

Of course, I don't know of anyone who doesn't understand the part about the "too." Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation stated "“We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and 'villages' that collectively care for one another,” I don't what percentage of those who marched support attacks on the family or police.

you do know that Marxist critical theory is not Marxism...right?

An idea that the founders of CRT reject

Single parenting is not something to seek. Nor is there anything wrong with a mother making the decision to stay home with her children. But back to CRT--racism being taught in the classroom has to stop. Money should be allocated for each CHILD so the parents can choose which school each child should attend. Many will choose those with no racism, no pedophilia books, and no males allowed in female restrooms.

no one is attacking your family or the family much less BLM.

What has that got to do with your false claims about CRT?

So typical. You get called out for supporting woke pseudo intellectual race baiting garbage and proceed to attack the messenger because you cannot honestly refute the message..and that is right out of the marxist playbook. Ought to take that plank out of your own eye first before you come at me personally like that.

pretty much every claim you have made is not true
I"ll go with CRT being an "outgrowth of Marxist critical theory." As to BLM, some people disagree with you. I read a fair amount of foreign press, here are some quotes from a BBC article:

However, former US secretary of housing and developments Ben Carson, said people with noble aims had been taken advantage of by a "Marxist-driven organisation" that supports "taking down the model of Western family structures".

Carol Swain, a political commentator and former professor, said: "They are using black people to advance a Marxist agenda."

What is Black Lives Matter and what are the aims?
