    redefining definitions of words. It's not equality, when someone performs not equal, or better, and yet, just because someone is black, a woman, or a minority they get a job, or a college scholorship, or an ivy leauge education, over someone else that deserved it more.

    That's actually racism, and sexism within itself. Owe wait, that's what the democrat politicians are.

    I think some white racists use CRT to promote hate
    I think some black racists use CRT to promote hate

    to most, it's just an educational theory

    Your definition of intersectionality is completely incorrect.

    "the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, class, and gender as they apply to a given individual or group, regarded as creating overlapping and interdependent systems of discrimination or disadvantage.
    "through an awareness of intersectionality, we can better acknowledge and ground the differences among us"

    Thus à poor black girls have class, gender and racial intersectionalities. And why should they not ne recognised? How do you overcome such drawbacks if you don't understand them.
    Further you mention " forced equality".
    It isn't equal to start behind others. Understanding what makes up others allows you to see POTENTIAL.
    The aim is to offer EQUAL OPPORTUNITY to reach POTENTIAL.
    Which is very different from reaching "equity".

    Your thèses has à long history of attempts to make assumptions about others, that they are inherently not as potentially able as white people and are therefore given an unfair leg up.
    Look around you. My world is full of black lawyers, doctors, surgeons , researchers and students business people , judges, writers.
    Because someone saw their potential.
    This conversation remind me of the way m'en used to resent women in the workplaces.
    Hey.
    If you can't stand the compétition , find something else to do.
    Why should anyone hang back just to make life easier for those who assume they deserve to be at the front of the queue?

    I know this is late, several months late but better late than never for me to answer it. 'Social Justice Warriors' need a cause to fight for, they need to cite something unjust to justify an action that they want to take. In the Liberal case, Liberals win elections by creating victims and boogeymen. When's the last time you saw a positive election from a Democrat? Arguably Obama's first run in 2008, but even Obama then would compare McCain to a Third Bush Term. Negativity has been promoted by the Democrats(and yes, inb4 Trump he obviously participated too) and so we can expect a very nasty 2024 campaign. It is what it is.

    It's almost got me thinking: What is the point? In the minds of Liberals, conservatives can do no right and in the mind of conservatives, vice versa. Politics is an endless game of hot potato instead of taking the best of each other's ideas.

    It's not as simple as that. There are times when racism is prominent in history, such as the Holocaust, the Jim Crow Laws, Slavery in the United States, and then there are other factors that become prominent such as education, disability at an early age, home ownership, etc. You have to apply to the situation at hand and not with a broad, painted brush.

    So why did DeSantis ban CRT in the classroom under HB7/HB1557 then this year? The reason, that he like other conservatives believe, wrongly I might add, that CRT is being taught in the classroom.

    Here is a DeSantis quote, "Let me be clear: there’s no room in our classrooms for things like critical race theory," when he was originally proposing the Florida Civic Seal of Excellence. But that is a different thread altogether because it appears that DeSantis Florida Civic Seal of Excellence is propelling Christian Nationalism.

    https://www.news4jax.com/news/flori...-push-to-overhaul-floridas-civics-curriculum/

    They are being taught, but in history, and in specific historical events, taking racism out nullifies what truly happened, such as the Holocaust, the Jim Crow Laws, etc.

    Now what they want is to change slavery into "involuntary relocation." And I call that BS.

    It is not being taught in high school or anywhere else in primary or secondary education ranging from math to history to science.

    So it isn't à critical race theory.
    It is a conspiratorial race theory.

    Far too many examples of lessons being taught and teachers putting themselves on tiktok for this statement to be accurate.

    The conservatives have to blame someone or something in order to get their own "indoctrination" into the curriculum. What is concerning is that they are beinging to teach white Christian nationalism into the curriculum as "a mark of educational excellence.

    What does TikTok have to do with anything? You do know that they can have separate, personal lives to express their viewpoints that do not interfere with their professional job, right?

    Personally, I don't think you know what history is, his story yes, but not history?
