  1. "Teaching truth" And that's the problem. Whose truth? "I'm teaching children to question America" And that's also a problem. You're not teaching good critical thinking and filtering skills in general. You're teaching them how to see America as a set of racist institutions. CRT is Master's-level research. I don't trust teachers to understand it. I don't trust people that teach the teachers to understand it. I foresee that we just end up with a harmful, twisted version of the research much like the "give every kid a trophy" thing that Dweck, the original researcher, had to try to stymie. And two of the biggest issues in twisting CRT are Kendi and DiAngelo.

  2.  @nate312  I'm sorry, but I believe I gave impersonal, rational, and coherent arguments for my issues here. If you have a problem with my arguments attack those arguments. Do not attack me personally. That's not for my sake, but for yours so you don't look like a ill-educated ass clown. "highschool and up should not even be an issue" Good critical thinking and filtering skills, sadly, aren't even a general educational requirement until you're going for a graduate degree. Most college students aren't even going to be prepared properly to critically review emerging research such as CRT. Don't even get me started on Kendi and DiAngelo with that "fragile" ego nonsense.

  3. You don't remember Clinton rocketing Baghdad for not complying with UN weapons inspectors and the issue of WMD's prior to exiting office? Operation Desert Fox? Operation Desert Thunder? No? Ok...
