Cultural Marxism is a term that gets thrown around on the right wing quite a bit. Is this just trash conspiracy or is this the source of the identity politics that scourges the left today? Many left wing identity groups do seem themselves as the oppressed vs the oppressor like black lives matter similar to the bourgeoisie and the proletariat.
What that video described is PROGRESSIVE STACK MADE BY OWS COINTELPRO; IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MARXISM.
Bentley Davis
no shit, it's what "marxism" is to inbred burgers that think the communist manifesto is literally the necronomicon and will turn their kids into gay arabs if they read it
Yeah, it is. Read Adorno before accusing him of something. I also recommend the rationalwiki article about the topic for a quick summary.
Jason Davis
Adorno was more anti-degeneracy than Holla Forums.
Alexander Hill
I thought we were trying to convince people we're smart?
Joseph Gray
there's nothing wrong with being anti fun
Ryder Mitchell
I like how the first pic doesn't understand that being material and being a social construct are different things. Like, not even the faintest notion of what materialism is.
Michael Hernandez
Their articles about conspiracies, anti-science and some other stuff are accurate. After all this is part of their mission.
Levi Thompson
The problem with RW is that it's 70% liberal sophistry and 30% invaluable information that would otherwise be worth referring to.
Luis Reed
I did not make this. Although I did think the topic might be useful in explaining the rise of identity politics in the modern left and its resulting movements like with blacklivesmatter, third wave feminism, "fighting the straitness", etc.
Leo Rodriguez
It's a stupid conspiracy theory lifted from the Nazis.
Dylan Perez
No, it isn't. The ultra-postmodern COINTELPRO nonsense you see in modern culture is expressly because classic leftist thought was forcibly evicted from much of Western society.
The American government would rather have citizens become Muslim furries than communists.
Matthew Jones
Lol he just like made shit up Why do they call it Cultural Marxism other than to make a shoot off buzzword from an old one. Also from what i saw he was saying like but then you go into the comments and see all these autists pretending to know what they're talking about saying its the left who wants to destroy the white race. Its just a re-polished more autistic caricature taken from the 30s. Goddamn how are people so dumb.
Caleb Smith
I think it's a way for paranoid right wingers to discredit Marx - rather unfairly I must add, and I'm hardly his biggest fan - while absolving themselves of their part in the destruction of the institutions they accuse him of destroying. I'm pretty sure it's not a real thing, just a spooky meme.
Jordan Brown
Useful how? Do people really need Marcuse to tell them that censoring their opponents grants them power?
When did divorce rates first spike? Was it before the first generation raised in the reign of cultural Marxism?
How exactly did these academics manage to mind rape society so badly?

Kulturbolschewismus ("Cultural Bolshevism") it was adopted by neo-nazis to serve the sole purpose of propaganda smearing all who oppose you as part of some kind of grand jewish scheme. It's an adopted word from old nazi propaganda for goodness sake.

Everyone who isn't rad left does not know the difference between private property and personal property.
They also think destroying the nuclear family means breaking up immediate family instead of allowing people to not be forced to move and possibly remain around their extended family too.
Ryder Howard
The plan on the right sounds pretty good to me, honestly.
Carter Price
The books he cited are completely irrelevant to what rightcucks call "Cultural Marxism".
And they say that we control all the universities kek
Jaxson Jenkins
No modern right winger who uses the term feels a need to discredit Marx. In their mind he has been discredited along with all other Marxist ideologies as being flawed economically, biologically and historically. "Marxism" in Cultural Marxism stands for the ideals of economic equality they feel Marx stood for. When those ideals are divorced from economics and coupled with Freudian psychoanalysis and married to culture you have what they call Cultural Marxism. When a wingnut uses the term Cultural Marxism he is saying: Enforced radical egalitarianism through psychoanalytic reasoning. But saying cultural marxism is a much better conversation stopper in the same sense you would call someone a neonazi or a stalinist. "Marxism" scares normies.
Calling it a conspiracy theory misses the point of the terms usage entirely. How are modern progressive equality and radical egalitarianism a conspiracy? Are the critiques from these groups on western society not just thinly veiled psychoanalytic attacks on a perceived power structure that is based on a poor understanding of Marxist theory?
Robert Bailey
Paul Gottfried is probably more than a little fash but he produced a somewhat decent critique of the liberal managerial state which set the bases for what latter became known as the alt-right.
Will me sucking cock help spread the cultural marxist agenda??? Help me

Yes. I happen to have a dick in need of a good sucking. Let's do this for the revolution comrade.

Maybe Capitalism is trying to make people gay/trans for its own perverse ends. Soon, you'll be shopping for new expensive designer genders at your local Apple Store.
Matthew Smith
If it is a rented house then it makes sense. But obviously the faggots that make that pic don't know the difference between personal and private property and meant that nobody will be allowed to own anything.
Hudson Harris
This but unironically
Jacob Sullivan
Because it is. The whole concept is lifted wholesale from "Cultural Bolshevism" No.
Nolan Rivera
Can we PLEASE fucking kill this meme now?

I started to collect these pseudo progressive liberal consumerism and put them down under the name of "Cultural Capitalism" culturalcapitalism.tumblr.com/ Password: leftypol

They seem over-represented tbqhfam. Maybe if we CAPITALIZE some words the memes will go away.

Rationalwiki is a liberal cesspool, where minority issues are dogmatically important but socialism is just another economical system.

Hudson Scott
i may be nationalist but i never brought into any of the conspiracy memes, i have always understood that it was not some organized conspiracy behind globalism and todays liberal cosmopolitarian culture. i have suspected it was just because of capitalism. it was this that got me interested in left wing politics, anyways if i have understand this corectly the frankfurt school and Adorno kind off adress this? if so where do i begin to read?
Jason Rodriguez
Can Adorno be the new Bordiga?

Ding ding ding! Yes, exactly. A neutered corruption of Marxism becomes a dominant ideology under late capitalist rule. Color me shocked. I prefer the term "cultural creationism" myself.
Only if you critically deconstruct the act of cocksucking by letting me put it in your pooper
Leo Ramirez
Is your understanding of the word conspiracy really so daft that you think that because the people who coined the term did so with malefic intentions the use of the word wholesale is a conspiracy? From your own logic you can argue that calling someone a neo-nazi is a conspiracy since the origins of the word where also malefic in intent. No one would do that though because it is fucking dumb. Just because the term isn't accepted by the ones it describes does not mean it is not descriptive. If you don't like it I am open to an alternative. But as it stands Cultural Marxist is a useful descriptor of those who apply aspects of Critical Theory to further their own idpol agendas. No matter how little it has to do with actual Marxism to people who know their literature.
Christopher Lee
you are worse than the alt-Right
Tyler Gray
this. posthumanism is gonna be a thing eventually, though

That second image looks more like cultural Stirnerism TBH.

Try and disprove my point next time rather than using daft insults

Of course it's true, and those that fall under it including SJW's are what Marx noted as useful idiots. It's the people Marx himself admitted were too radical, yet useful. Marxism in general preys on the weak minded plebs. Which is why it lost the ideology war.
