The below ad from the Heritage Foundation confirms what conservatives really fear about "Critical Race Theory." The main thing they object to is being "critical."

These Marxist ideas pose a great danger to our nation. They are designed for two main reasons:

- To divide the American people.

- To displace America’s tradition of freedom.
