Chris Rufo thanks John Oliver for 'unintentional favor' following CRT diatribe

Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow Christopher Rufo wrote a lengthy Twitter thread praising comedian John Oliver’s attack on him and critics of critical race theory.

"The debate around critical race theory is both very loud and very, very dumb," Oliver said. "But unfortunately it is important to engage with it because if we don’t, the endpoint that we are heading toward is that honest discussions of race will be shut out of public schools even as some parents f--k off to voucher academies where their kids can learn a version of history that is basically antebellum fan fiction."
