Christ almighty, the petulance just won’t quit:

> Well duh. But that’s not the point. Experts often disagree in their conclusions, but we weren’t arguing about conclusions, but rather the methods used to reach them. That is what you and Kimstu spent so much time telling me I was wrong about. You implied I was crazy to ask the exact same question that the author answers in the quote. The answer doesn’t matter, it’s the fact he considers it a legitimate, significant issue that demonstrates I was right all along.

So, she asks whether the theory can be “falsified,” as though there’s some experiment you can do to test the hypothesis. She’s corrected on the subject, but doubles down, so I point out the foolishness of her question by showing how you’d “falsify” CRT (e.g., by demonstrating shit like “White people didn’t inherit wealth”).

Rather than be like, “Oh, right, I guess that doesn’t really make much sense to ask,” she’s like, “SEE I KNEW IT COULD BE DONE!” at which point people start mocking her.

Now? Now she wants the whole thread to be about how _she was right all along_, because one theorist looked at one small part of CRT and made some weird comment about how that piece was hard to evaluate, AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT SHE SAID AND WHY WAS EVERYONE SO MEAN TO HER.

It’s so hard to tell the difference between abject stupidity and trolling. But I’m gonna respond to this foot-stamping tantrum here, rather than in that thread.
