Abolish Critical Theory?

The ideaology has ultimately bred antiscience, anti-rationality, and absurd bigotry under the guise of anti-bigotry. "ciritcal race theory" for instance is embodied in a course called "abolish whiteness".

Does that mean we are going to be consistent and throw out everything that spun stupid ideas? Because if we are going to do that... I'm not sure if there will be a lot of stuff left to study 馃檮

An action towards "what"? You have failed to provide anny consistent idea that we should "act" towards. Since you can't establish what "critical theory" is.

BTW, I agreed with the dictionairy definition a long time ago even though it's narrow, it provides an understanding of what critical theory is.

[quote]And my point, which you've continually missed, is that there IS NOT a good definition for it. [/quote]

So it's a call for action towards ambiguity? That sounds really healthy. Let's see how that turns out.


[quote]The scientific method has a goal and critical theory has a goal, and if you said the goal of critical theory was to promote capitalism, you would be wrong as fuck, but technically not wrong by those two definitions I gave.[/quote]

馃檮 This is another point that doesn't make sense. How would the two defenitions you gave [i](something we still haven't established btw)[/i] "techincally" support the idea that it promotes "capitalism"?

@AgapeLove From the person that makes a call to action towards an idea that apperently can't be put into a definition? I'll take insults of this nature anny day.
