O hear the phrase tossed around in arguments, but what is the theory?

Is there actually a well-defined theory with a specific canon or is it a vague/disputed term?

I’ll probably regret asking this lol

do you mean what is it actually or do you mean what are hogs talking about when they piss their pants about it?

I don’t know

Edit: after giving it more thought, I suppose one of my questions is: IS THERE such a theoretical school? Or is it just gibberish that doesn’t exist like ‘Cultural Marxism’?

summarizing the thread:

critical theory is real and it can be applied to race

the people whining about it don’t know that or anything else about it and in that context it’s a just a boogeyman.
