Christopher Rufo says CRT teaches "that America is an irredeemably racist nation and that the constitutional principles of [[freedom]] and [[equality]] are mere “camouflages,” in the words of scholar William F. Tate IV, for [[white supremacy]]. The solution, according to prominent exponents of critical race theory such as Ibram X. Kendi, is to abolish [[capitalism]] and install a near-omnipotent federal bureaucracy with the power to nullify any law and silence political speech that isn’t “antiracist.”

According to their own policy prescriptions, the critical race theorists would limit or abolish the right to private property, [[freedom of speech]], [[equal protection]] under the law, non-discrimination, [[free enterprise]], and the Federalist system of government. In its place, they would create a new regime of group-based rights, race-based redistribution of wealth, omnipotent [[bureaucratic]] authority, and active racial discrimination. It's a program of [[revolution]] that rejects the founding principles [[equality]] and [[freedom]], and would overturn the premise of the [[Constitution]].
