      Naw, he's making a perfectly fair joke. The war on CRT is, in effect, a deliberate attempt to make it be that, not only is there no CRT narrowly, there's no sort of critical theorizing about race. There is clearly overlap between CRT and bog standard disparate impact.

      I’d especially like a confirmation that you Jeet understand that this is not CRT.

      It is CRT, by law. Jeet is pointing this out.

      It’s not CRT and I honestly don’t believe he understands that. And discussing that wouldn’t be banned by any of the anti-CRT laws. If you think it would, say which one and why.

      If you aren't going to believe Jeet when he says he understands that, in so many words, what can I possibly say to make you believe me when I say that I believe Jeet when he says so in so many words? What would count as evidence?

      He hasn’t said that he understands that even yet. So far I’ve seen only your words. I’d like to see a clean answer that he understands CRT well enough to understand that is civil right era analysis not CRT.

      Jeet: please avow you understand that what you have done is offer a moderately clever, ironic, sound, reductio ad absurdum, not a stupid, false, transparently bogus statement about 1970's legal scholarship.

      It’s a statement about current legal scholarship. CRT.

      No. That's clearly false. Jeet is clearly making the point that CRT contains elements that are much more mainstream. By banning CRT, its opponents are aiming to bad those mainstream elements as well, by association.

          I can’t tell from the threading what he’s agreeing with. Neither he nor you appear to understand that the specific area of disparate impact is an area where many CRT critiques believe they DIFFER from civil rights analysis.
