idpol

It's basically a code word for "the Jews".

It makes no sense to me.

Cultural Marxism is equated to the Frankfurt School, but those guys were cultural conservatives that hated modern media for shitting in your head. I bet if you presented these exact ideas to a Holla Forumstard without saying where they are from, they would integrate them into their arguments against degenerate art and modern media. Still, as soon as you bring up the name instead of the content, everyone thinks it's idpol, forced equality of outcome or SJWism.

"Cultural Marxism" is literally an oxymoron. Marxism would see culture as a result of material forces, and if it puts culture as being central instead of class then it isn't Marxism. People literally think that something is "Marxism" if it advocates against inequality or uses an oppressor/oppressed dynamic because, and this is a real quote


It's literally the same logic as "atoms and solar systems are totally the same dude! Just replace "nucleus" with "sun" and "electron" with "planet" lol"

cultural marxism for the alt-right = patriarchy for feminists

I can only assume it means making culture more inclusive? In which case it's a really lazy short hand.

marxism is about class not culture. it's a misnomer for identity politics meant to drag actual marxism through the mud

It's been done before, you can take a random quote from the Frankfurt School, paste it on a picture of Evola and Holla Forumsyps will agree with it

Because calling liberal idpol cultural capitalism would make them uncomfortable.
