Back to the OP. Does anyone have anything to say about CRT or this sudden need to cleanse schools of material that is perceived to teach it?
It's the last gasp of conservative Christianity, kind of like the final bayonet charge of an army facing certain defeat.

It’s not actually sudden. More that they’re suddenly deciding that “CRT” is why they do it.
We have always been at war with Eastasia. I think a bayonet charge is a good analogy, and we might want to be a little wary of the overconfidence some people have had when facing one.
White separatist shit was and still is prolific on childrens content streams. They’re winning the hearts and minds front. Unremarkably average people believe ludicrous shit. Shit with a very specific purpose.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Hello person who doesn't know what CRT is, and gets all of his opinions from FOX News and Newsmax. I understand that researching anything outside of the scope of those things is scary, and you want to live in this reality that Newsmax and Fox News and Infowars has created for you. And you're free to do so. However, we live in the real world. That means your 'expertise' (also known as being able to listen to Joe Rogan and regurgitate his talking points) is meaningless here. Let the adults talk about the things that matter, while you take your Ivermectin and drink your own piss.

I don't disagree with debate about what's best to teach young students, but its pretty clear to me that outlets like Fox news and others have intentionally skewed the subject of CRT to their own agenda, which is to once again find a way to make white people fear black people. Its happened over and over in our country. My own father started a tirade about confederate statues and ended it with "now their teaching white kids to hate themselves". He's almost 80, so I don't push back too hard. But its sad how manipulative people can be.

You guys should listen to the newsmakers more often......they are the experts, not you. You're just some doofus with a little opinion.

Laughable. Fox news is expert! Its clear they have you brainwashed.
And for your information, I do get information from reliable sources. One step in that is finding multiple sources and considering their agendas and motivations and comparing what each has to say. But you just keep listening to Fox news. I doubt you would understand anything else. I linked a short video of a college professor explaining her own course on CRT and you wouldn't even watch that. So who is the doofus with a little opinion here?

Why trust your own flawed judgment, instead of the experts?

You have no idea how to identify an expert authority. Propaganda sources are not authorities.
I don't have to be an expert in every area. I just have to use what skills and knowledge I do have to figure out who actually are the experts, see if they agree, and try to understand how their interpretations match the data. It helps to have some actual science knowledge.
Critical thinking skills are built up over a lifetime. Use it or lose it.
