I wasn't gonna comment, because this I'm so late to the party. But this was really good. I made it all the Way through because-a that.
"All PoC ar noble strivers with both proud and distinctive traditions and an even brighter, almost inevitably victorious future (perhaps because that outcome was to be gradually mandated and engineered, and enforced?)"
Would just remove the question mark.
"To the extent any of that argument is true, a large part of it is simply based on growing up as part of a large majority."
This is something I wondered about, but dunno much about. There's always gonna be a tension between a large majority and a large minority, right? Dunno Korea, but assume that was Your point. But I don't see *anybody* trying to figure that out, and see how it can be ameliorated.
I agree with Substack Reader below, that it boils down to political strategy, in the end. And couldn't help but notice those at the very top-a the food chain (KenDiAngelo, Hannah-Jones and Coates, to name a few)... Well, they all cashed their chips in for fame and (mostly) fortune.
But I don't think it pays to overlook the Marxist aspect to this. The original Critical Race Theory outta the 80s. And up to the present time. There are people who wanna "dismantle the institutions" because-a their "systemic racism." Since "systemic racism" is a hoax, AFAIK, their ultimate motive is to tear down the society however they can and replace it with dreams.
Or, I should say, that's one motivation for destroying society, but not necessarily the only one.
