Which Critical Race Theory?

The narrow legal sense which is all about bias built into the system by layers of subversively racist laws?

The Left political grift version which encourages performative virtue signaling instead of enacting actual change.

The traditional grift version used to sell trainings where white people are told all evil is the fault of their whiteness?

The Right political grift version which uses the worse excess of the above grift version to quietly silence pr forestall actual change.

The social movement that acknowledges with (purposely?) bad language that the system is rigged, and needs to be fixed.

It is in the interests of the political left AND the political right that the definition never become crystal clear, they both profit off the confusion.
