I fundamentally disagree with you. The notion that all history is nothing more than a narrative that is inherently political is absurdly reductive and that’s one of the tenants of CRT by which I can’t take it seriously.
I mean, look you don’t believe in Enlighment values, cool. Other people still do. Not everyone thinks the world is purely subjective. Subjectivity is something we can shed through education and practice.
From where you stand what I’m saying seems totally absurd, I have no doubt. Because I am well aware they don’t educate with enlightenment values anymore and even when I was doing my undergrad/grad work it was ‘old school’ to think that way and the ‘new school’ was the pure subjectivity assumption.
