I think we have a big problem with the discourse around CRT. The r/criticalracetheory subreddit recently opened, and it's a shithole of tribalism and virtue signaling by stupidpol types, far right conspirators, bored liberals who just walked in to wave their red or blue MAGAs like it's jury duty, and a noticeable complete absence of leadership or actual CRT philosophers. When I checked, the mod who probably redditrequest'd it did not seem to be showing any power level or political affiliation. I could not determine if the agenda of the sub will be "epic WWF style CRT debates" or actual CRT academic discussion .

and basically nothing else for resources. Any true CRT fans/enjoyers sharing information would be great. Also, IDK if hexbear is pro CRT or divided on CRT lol.

    The way I see it, CRT is the new SJW/feminism/cultural Marxism boogeyman. Every online dipshit has their own definition and opinion on the extent of its influence. I figure like with the SJW/gamergate psychosis of the 10s, I’ll only passively develop a basic understanding 3-5 years after it stops being relevant, so I think I’ll just ignore anything that has to do with it beyond reactionary revisionism.

    It’s just not worth engaging if it doesn’t have to do with harmful policy. I say let idiots tire themselves out on ignorant circlejerks. Debates and arguments are pointless.
