Term 'theory' in "critical theory" falsely suggests methodological rigor when, in fact, there is no method at all, much less a rigorous one. CT is instead a set of assertions, amongst which is the idea that 'methods' and 'rigor' are tools oppression. It is motivated sophistry. Horkheimer, "Traditional and Critical Theory." Please identify the set of assertions you think defines CT, and give page numbers for the claim that methods and rigor "are tools oppression."

It closely examines every facet of society, and blames any racial disparity found on racism without proper scientific rigor. It is the opposite of "color-blind" theory that was first made popular by MLK, which states we should ignore race, and treat each other as equals. It states that different races should be taught what their "place" is in society by labeling them as either privileged people or victims, and teaches that every system and social interaction should be commanded by this thought process.

I'd argue calling everything that challenges your world view "racist" is a method. That is the only consistency in the theory. When you get stuck in a contradiction and need a way out, claim racism. The defintion of theory is: "a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained." CRT assumes systemic racism and then explains it.
