Well, I did say "a lot" of young people, not all. I have three adult children and I wouldn't say any of them are in the thrall of critical theory, despite having graduated from public universities in California.

By the way, what is an example of critical theory being used by partisans of the Right?

The "deep state" and "tech giant bias" ideological movements of the Right sit firmly within the broader definition of critical theory. Whenever the Right appeals to freedom from corruption or freedom of speech for those specific issues, they are appealing to the narrow definition of critical theory (emancipation/liberation from being subject to another's dominant position of certain liberties).

You obviously know the ins and outs of critical theory much better than I do. You've also cited two ideological movements of which I am completely unaware. Thanks for your time.
