Critical Race Theory goes all the way back to the 60s, immediately after the Civil Rights Act was passed. They've been infiltrating schools, media, law, and bureaucracies ever since.
We're just at the point that we've reached critical mass, where there isn't a generation alive that didn't go through the indoctrination camps of public school.
Gen X is fell for that as well as "muh free speech" which was just a thinly veiled plot to normalize degeneracy.
fair enough, but is it possible somebody picked up this theory that had limited traction before and , in an effort to annoy and grief others, took it to an extreme, only to have that extreme version be picked up as the social justice that we all know and hate?
