Denigrating the values which create success.

Referencing  Tema Okun's "White Supremacy Culture" work is bad by Matthew Yglesias.  From several months ago but a worthwhile resource.  If Yglesias sees the idiocy, sympathetic as he might be, then you know it is complete tosh.

Okun and her ilk spend a lot of time denigrating the personal and cultural values which create success.  As Yglesias notes, in reference to Okun's work

And to put it bluntly, it’s really dumb. In my more conspiratorial moments, I wonder if it’s not a psyop devised by some modern-day version of COINTELPRO to try to destroy progressive politics in the United States by making it impossible to run effective organizations.  

Further:

She doesn’t put forward any evidence or arguments in favor of her claims (and indeed, “objectivity” is seen as a manifestation of white supremacy culture), but this is also not a lived experience argument. Instead she credits the second-hand wisdom of the late Kenneth Jones who was her co-author on the original version of the workbook that featured the list. And the reason it feels like an op to destroy progressive politics is that she’s pretty clearly not talking about race or racism at all. This whole document instead comes from a place of extreme characterological aversion to hierarchy and structure.

Which suggests that the emotional energy might be due to a mismatch between the author's aspirations and their incapacity to function well with others or in a hierarchy.  Would be interesting to see what their career paths were before they lighted on the Critical Race Theory grift.

Interesting that most the Critical Race Theorists have businesses on the side doing consulting and training.  One massive grift on society.  Also interesting that apparently the most commercially successful race theorists are white.  White people telling white people they are racists.
