Critical Race Theory is the opposite of The Golden Rule

The Golden Rule teaches to treat others the way that you want to be treated. When society was teaching this method of coming together, we were. Enter in the "race card" where racism became instead of an overt offense, it became a word out of context or an emotion that is objectively implied. Critical race theory teaches that you can have micro-racism. Where every small thing from inanimate objects to fairness and equality and call is discrimination. In other words, instead of teaching people to be nice, CRT teaches to find offense and division. It's quite literally a division tactic and will NEVER bring any racial conciliation forward. We need to get back to The Golden Rule method of bringing everyone together in kindness. Anyone that pushes critical race theory is a racist bigot that wants to spread division and hatred.

Here's a good article describing how CRT is nothing more than Marxism, utilizing "social justice" (also known as racism) to enforce a new ideology.
Only useful idiots follow CRT. Many are on this board.

Its supporters deploy a series of euphemisms to describe critical race theory, including “equity,” “social justice,” “diversity and inclusion” and “culturally responsive teaching.”
Critical race theorists, masters of language construction, realize that “neo-Marxism” would be a hard sell. Equity, on the other hand, sounds nonthreatening and is easily confused with the American principle of equality. But the distinction is vast and important. Indeed, critical race theorists explicitly reject equality — the principle proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, defended in the Civil War and codified into law with the 14th and 15th Amendments, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. To them, equality represents “mere nondiscrimination” and provides “camouflage” for white supremacy, patriarchy and oppression.

I notice the two detractors offer no rebuttal, they know what the OP says is true, they just won't admit it

Agree. I have seen more damage to race relations in the last 12-18 months than I have in my 60+ yrs on this earth...

Getting even, and unforgiveness has never once made society a better place to live, not in the history of humanity on planet earth has it ever made anyone’s life better, not the one doing the getting even, or the one on the receiving end of it.
All it’s ever done is place weights upon people’s necks to carry around in life by introducing yet more unforgiveness, resentment, anger, division, and retribution. It ONLY ends when you begin to learn how to forgive, and only then will real healing begin to take over. Until then, you may not have started the fire, but you’re sure as hell making it burn more so.

CRT should have just stayed a theory. The problem is, as you stated, there is no practical application for it.
CRT advocates believe it is necessary, useful, and powerful in the fight against systemic racism. The purpose, they say, is to name racism and address systemic racial inequities by highlighting ongoing systemic racism.
The MAJOR flaw is anyone with a brain can make up a theoretical reason for racism to have played a part in anything action taken. Even when racism truly didn't exist.
Someone here posted an article by James Lindsay about the problem with applying CRT. Here is the article... For Racial Healing, Reject CRT by James Lindsay
As you can read, the shop keeper is labeled "racist" by applying CRT regardless of the real factors that led to her decision. Lose/Lose situation.
CRT is an absolute joke when it moves beyond the abstract.

Lot of words to karate chop a strawman. Your presumption that everyone just inherently knows what Critical Race Theory is, as you offer no definition or explanation, undermines the strength of your argument. It implies a deceptive intent as otherwise you would present the information and the audience could properly evaluate your assertion.
A thing that is important to you, may not be important to everyone. So err on the side of more information.

But rather than abandon their political project, Marxist scholars in the West simply adapted their revolutionary theory to the social and racial unrest of the 1960s. Abandoning Marx’s economic dialectic of capitalists and workers, they substituted race for class and sought to create a revolutionary coalition of the dispossessed based on racial and ethnic categories.
I seem to remember someone else who did this. I believe he was Austrian-born and sported a Charlie Chaplin mustache...
