![]() ![]() I think this person is an example of a far left sort of person, who takes words like "critical race theory", "racism", "misogyny", "white supremacy", and uses them like buzzwords to get a reaction. ![]() You end up ignoring social and economic class for instance, which then marginalizes poor white people by lumping them into the same category as the few hyper successful white men at the top. ![]() The problem with far left activists is that they use critical race theory incorrectly by using it as their only lens, thus reducing a complex and nuanced world down to race. People can climb out and become successful, but it's a hell of a lot harder than someone born in the suburbs (white or black). The policy of denying loans to black folks is gone, but all of the challenges that come with a generation of poverty and unequal laws still exist. So for instance, the historical denial of lending money to black people resulted in the inability for black communities to generate wealth that could be passed on to later generations, so you end up with self-perpetuating poor neighborhoods. One of the main ideas behind critical race theory is that people are not necessarily personally racist, but systems and structures created in the past that were built on racist notions may still perpetuate the effects of racist policies. ![]()
