Critical Race Theory as Religion, and the way it Evangelizes

“In CRT every individual is to be induced with CRT. In service of this monomaniacal goal (predicated on a bad article of faith) every institution, particularly those dedicated to the production of culture, must be turned into a tool that raises a critical consciousness of race. The objective is simple. Every convertible person must be converted, and every position of power and influence must be occupied by someone whose consciousness has been awakened. Understanding this mentality makes almost everything Critical Race Theorists do immediately comprehensible, no matter how bizarre. It’s all about creating converts and installing them into positions of power where they will not have accountability (holding them accountable would be racist). They do this by seizing the means of cultural production and repurposing them to evangelize Critical Race Theory.”

Race Marxism — p. 225

We are living in a time when this evangelism (actually propaganda) is ubiquitous. In the photos that come in our Alma Mater magazines that obviously go out of their way to put the only minority in a sea of white faces in the center of the photograph, to the films and TV which push inter-racial marriage and the Queer agenda, to every government agency and corporate training time with their pushing of White guilt, to 99% of American pulpits and churches implicitly or explicitly teaching that Jesus loves inter-racial churches more than he does churches that are obviously racist because their attendance is 100% white, to the push for inter-racial adoptions because that really pleases Jesus, to the sports world which refuses to hold affirmative action spots for white athletes the way the rest of the world has to follow the affirmative action paradigm in the other direction, to the ACT, SAT, LSAT, and MCAT tests that give one extra points on the test merely because one is a minority, to the law enforcement world where the lie gains traction, despite whole books proving the contrary, that Cops are especially dangerous to minorities, ad infinitum we are propagandized and evangelized into the Critical Race Theory faith.

And if that doesn’t get the job done then there is the economic threat of being visited with Cancel Culture because one doesn’t share the CRT faith. Propaganda thus moves from manipulation to coercion and extortion. Finally, if one refuses to be converted by the above means there is the final option of the modern inquisition where Mao’s maxim is applied; “power flows from the barrel of a gun.”

Oh, and let us not forget the evangelistic aspect that includes the force of law. Here we find the recommendation of one Ibram X. Kendi (born Ibram Henry Rogers) that encourages legislation to work as a evangelistic tool for CRT;

“To fix the original sin of racism, Americans should pass an anti-racist amendment to the U.S. Constitution that enshrines two guiding anti-racist principals: Racial inequity is evidence of racist policy and the different racial groups are equals. The amendment would make unconstitutional racial inequity over a certain threshold, as well as racist ideas by public officials (with “racist ideas” and “public official” clearly defined). It would establish and permanently fund the Department of Anti-racism (DOA) comprised of formally trained experts on racism and no political appointees. The DOA would be responsible for preclearing all local, state and federal public policies to ensure they won’t yield racial inequity, monitor those policies, investigate private racist policies when racial inequity surfaces, and monitor public officials for expressions of racist ideas. The DOA would be empowered with disciplinary tools to wield over and against policymakers and public officials who do not voluntarily change their racist policy and ideas.”

In all actuality this idea is a “anti-white” bill and is part of the goal to make the religion of CRT cover America.

Now, understand that it is the above for which the WOKE preachers are stumping. Every time Sumpter, or Brito, or Clark, or Wilson, or Sey, or Strachan inveigh against Christian Nationalism or Kinism or insist that “race doesn’t really exist,” this is the religion they are pushing.

Now, I freely admit that they may not be epistemologically self conscious about that but that does not negate the fact that they are CRT snake oil evangelists and so are doing the devil’s work.
