Not sure if you are aware but this was a coordinated and planned tactic by right wing media. Specifically they targeted the term crt and decided to make it out to be the devil.

It’s a common tactic of Fox News and adjacent online outlets. Senators will join in as well. Anything to start a culture war. It’s coordinated and planned. I’m on mobile but I’d send you some evidence about it. I remember Hasan Piker showing some interesting information about it.
