About Cultural Marxism

Has Marxism benefited those in North Korea, China, Russia and all the satellites once held by Russia?

 

Pretty sad. I work with professional people from all over the world. Many speak 3 - 4 or more languages. And here we have Americans who crap their pants
if they even hear another language.

Pretty pathetic.

 

English is the international language.

It's the language of aviation and at sea.

It's the language of trade.

When that Japan airliner is landing in Paris, France all communications are being conducted in English.

Even to be a successful Al Qaeda terrorist you are required to speak English.

Now anyone who is trilingual in English, French and German shouldn't have any problems communicating throughout the world no matter where they are.
I shouldn't have to explain to you why, it's a no brainer.

 

Let's also indicate for the uniformed, A second language is taught in High Schools and is a requirement for a B.S. in Chemistry, Biology etc. Therefore I suggest the author of that statement is wrong. Furthermore, in America people are allowed to follow any religion of their choosing. The First Amendment to the Constitutions says so. BTW, we don't see Christians beheading Muslims, Jews, or Buddhists on Main Street as ISIS does on a daily basis.

 

Bull crap. Take a walk down Main St, Flushing, NY on any day you will hear Farsi, Paki, S. Korean, Chinese, Spanish, Italian and yes English being spoken.

 

There's a saying and it kept America together for a long time until just recently.

A common language is the glue that holds a diverse country together

 

I'm holding my tongue on this, because Marxism is irrelevant to this conversation.

 

you dont understand how america works. time for a civics 101 class for you. the bill of rights is there to protect minorities. majorities do not rule in this country.

 

Then the subject title 'Cultural Marxism' must not be discussed?

 

I see your point but let me say that I think I gave a wrong impression. I'm right behind the classical liberal idea that minorities are not trampled upon by the majority. If remember rightly the view of democracy at the time of the writing of your Constitution was that it was a form of mob rule and had to be guarded against. Liberal democracy, of which I am in favour, doesn't allow for winner take all, nor should it. My remark was about the allegation of something dreamed up by the right, this "Cultural Marxism". Rather than label an idea "Culturally Marxist" and by doing so damn it, the idea should be examined. If it provides a broad benefit then it's worth considering. If it benefits only a few then it's not worth considering. "Cultural Marxism" is just rightist propaganda.

 

It's all connected. Cultural Marxism / political correctness is just the social component of economic Marxism. The goal is to make people believe everything is the same by destroying all critical thought and common sense. So that we come to see the saint as no better than the murderer. Just different. This makes us wrong to judge the murderer. And thus society collapses from its inability to determine up from down. Insanity accomplished. Welcome to your new communist dystopia (*)(*)(*)(*)hole.

Those of us that are left with a functioning brain and have not fallen prey to the absurd social conditioning being forced upon us will find ourselves feeling an awful lot like Luke Wilson in Idiocracy.

 

"Cultural Marxism" is a buzzword invented by neo nazis to describe progressive social policy. It isn't a real ideology, and has nothing to do with actual Marxism.

 

Cultural Marxism is an ideology which emphasizes culture as a main cause of inequalities. Critics have seen cultural Marxism and its influence as an important cause of political correctness and as an important cause of a perceived decline of humanities, social sciences, culture, and civilization in the Western world. Even self-admitted Marxists are unlikely to use the term to describe their own ideology. They prefer to hide behind their facade of elitism, instead, promoters of cultural Marxism may use terms such as critical theory, postmodernism, or deconstruction. Cultural Marxists see culture as the main cause for many different kinds of inequalities.

 

I'm convinced it's only called "Critical Theory" so as to avoid the stigma attached to Marxism.

Because Critical Theory is, literally, Cultural Marxism. As in, it applies Marxist philosophy to culture.

It is about forcing ideology, because Critical Theory asserts their critiques are matters of fact, like how the Frankfurt School, who invented it, insisted consumer culture was created by a capitalist oligarchy to enslave the proletariat. Instead of, you know, by choice, because people like stuff.

 

It's an attempt at Red Scare tactics.

And the western world is not in decline. We're more aware,rational, and tolerant than ever before.

 

No. I'm asking a rhetorical question that presumes that the person being queried considers societal constraints against certain behaviors as "cultural Marxism" while completely ignoring the overt and sometimes successful attempts to force everyone to conform to a particular standard using legal repercussions.

 

Sorry, cultural Marxism IS another label for critical theory.
It has NOTHING to do with political Marxism.

Imagine "culture" being the main cause of many different inequalities. "main cause" is a subjective evaluation, but there can be absolutely no doubt that culture is a significant source/cause of all kinds of inequalities.

 

Cultural Marxism - Metapedia

May 31, 2015 - The Frankfurt School is a neo-Marxist school which originated around 1923 at the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt, Germany. The Frankfurt School developed critical theory in order to analyze and explain how culture creates inequalities.

Metapedia is nazi trash. There are no redeeming qualities to that cesspool.

And no academics refer to the Frankfurt School that way. The name is critical theory. It's a rather arcane school of thought. The term cultural Marxism is used exclusively by nazis and their associates.

 

People who are attracted to cultural marxism are natural born bullies and control freaks. Cultural marxism is psychological violence.

I don't mind a lot of their goals, but don't ask me to share a pint with one because I'll have to end up glassing her, to save on psychologist bills. Of course I won't have the guts to glass her so I won't save on psychologist bills. The psychologist will of course be a cultural marxist too, so after she kicks my mind for several months and discovers all my triggers and weaknesses, l'll end up going to a male conservative psychiatrist who only wants to tell me how much he hates gays, but won't admit he hates Jews.

 

As are those who complain about cultural marxism. That is what political junkies are.

 

Lol
