You might be right (or you might not--you might even be backwards because "don't think of a white elephant" does exactly the opposite).
But either way, it doesn't change the point that this example is not clearly in the CRT-inspired vein. So it's entirely possible that someone could love this and still hate what they call CRT (even if "CRT" refers to something real, not the right-wing fantasy about something so awful that they get to win all elections forever because they oppose it).
