    It’s saying that the logic used by things like CRT is thematically identical to logic used in biblical texts…

    I don’t think it’s even going that far. I interpreted it as the conservative throwing the term around glibly without any actual understanding of what it means, simply because they don’t like what is being said, and a perhaps a very tenuous connection.

      Yeah. It was intentionally made into a boo phrase and thought terminating cliche. Chris Rufo has a lot to answer for, in poisoning the well of discourse in this country. Not that it wasn’t already pretty terrible, but an ocean of piss is no excuse to dump barrels of cyanide.
