Schrodinger's critic

Somebody who gives really bad opinions, then decides whether or not to change their opinion to be more agreeable based on the people's reaction around them.

Zack: "Astroworld is Travis Scott's worst album."

Connor: "What the hell? You have to be kidding bro.

Zac: "Okay, fine. It's his second best album."

Connor: "You're such a Schrodinger's critic."

Critical mistake

A misfire or mistake so sad or pathetic that you question if they went into a vegetative state when doing it.

My idiot friend decided it would be a good idea to bring balloons to his boss's funeral. A critical mistake that would cost him his job.

Critical Race Theory

The most misunderstood theory on this planet. Period.

This theory was only meant to be used and understood in an academic context, but I guess some people decided it would be "cool" to use in mainstream discourse (i.e. social media). Thus, the misunderstanding begins.

In all seriousness, for someone to understand this theory, you would need to understand what "critical theory" is first. I am specifically referring to the philosophical theory that Adorno & Horkheimer invented, which is basically a heated critique on mass-produced culture.

If one does not understand the tenets to this theory, then one should not voice their uninformed opinions on said theory.

Of course, perhaps the fault lies more in the people who decided to abuse this term. And in that case, I understand you 100%, but at the same time it's still unfair to dismiss it as BS.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺: "Critical Race Theory is a bunch of BS"
𝗠𝗲: "No, it's not. Either you misunderstood the theory, or you haven't grasped the underlying philosophy behind it."
𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺: "I don't think I'd care enough to learn about it."
𝗠𝗲: "If you don't wish to know more about it, that's fine, just admit you were wrong."
𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺: "Okay SJW."
𝗠𝗲: "Look man I'm only being pedantic. Call me a nerd, call me a know-it-all, but I ain't got nothing to do with SJWs. In fact I'll happily listen to critiques against this theory."
