This is useful as a literalist refutation of claims that “Critical Race Theory” (as an academic field) suffuses education these days. But that’s not what CRT opponents mean when they say “Critical Race Theory.” What they mean is any *discussion of structural racism*.

And there's a distribution problem. First you have to make the existence of Rufo much more well known, and then build the association so you can name it. Might not be a bad idea for say the Atlantic to do a major profile, so the cat can be seen to be belled.

Hmm... as a thought experiment, I'd probably do it in a 2-step judo move. Build him up in a *positive* way first -- a glowing profile admiring his meme artistry and political sophistication. Build him up to the point a natural backlash emerges, then incept the "rufoed" meme there
