The article also says: Minnicino asserted there were two aspects of the Frankfurt School plan to destroy Western culture. Firstly, a cultural critique, by Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, to use art and culture to promote alienation and replace Christianity with socialism. This included the development of opinion polling and advertising techniques to brainwash the populace and control political campaigning. Secondly, the plan supposedly included attacks on the traditional family structure by Herbert Marcuse and Erich Fromm to promote women's rights, sexual liberation, and polymorphous perversity to subvert patriarchal authority.[5] Minnicino claimed the Frankfurt School was responsible for elements of the counterculture of the 1960s and a "psychedelic revolution", distributing hallucinogenic drugs to encourage sexual perversion and promiscuity.[5] Cultural Marxism is heavily based on Cultural Bolshevism. The only differences are the setting, the time period, and the references to Jews are less obvious. But in both conspiracies, there's a shadowy cabal of Marxists (Jews) from the Frankfurt School that have infiltrated the media and academia in order to subvert society by promoting gender non-conformity. And supposedly this will lead to the Jews/Marxists taking over.

They literally just want to do a genocide against trans people.

Examples? Let's see how you deflect from this. I also drink water. Did you know the nazis drank water? Seriously, google it.

Criticizing marxism is fine. I criticize marxism too. But the cultural marxism conspiracy theory is a nazi theory. And you won't address that, because you know it.

But you fascists claim that Disney goes WOKE very week. What actually happened is Disney, like most companies, took a hit during the lockdowns. After that, they recovered and their profits have been steadily rising since 2020. Conservatives are still saying Disney is WOKE, but their profits are still going up. Also, you have no evidence that they fired the WOKE people. And you'll never be able to prove that because you don't actually know what WOKE means. It's just a reactionary term that retards use for whatever they don't like. When did they disavow the WOKE or ask Trump to beg, tears in his eyes, for people to forgive them? The drop in stock is actually overstated. They're obviously going to bounce back.

Out of which population? And out of that population, how many people are vaccinated? Percentages are relative. Source?

Why?

Getting triggered, I see. The smilies are out in full force!

The page explains pretty clearly where this theory comes from. Its an updated version of the "cultural bolshevism" conspiracy, with the references to Jews being slightly less obvious. You're strawmanning because you can't argue against my point. The "cultural marxism" conspiracy is a nazi theory. Not everyone who repeats it is a nazi, but the theory itself is heavily based on one of the foundations of nazism.

I'm not that black pilled. A lot of zoomers are more informed and politically engaged than past generations.

TL ; DR

Sadly true.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_Marxism_conspiracy_theory "According to Samuel Moyn, "[t]he wider discourse around cultural Marxism today resembles nothing so much as a version of the Jewish Bolshevism myth updated for a new age." Maxime Dafaure likewise states that Cultural Marxism is a contemporary update of antisemitic conspiracy theories, such as the Nazi concept of "Cultural Bolshevism", and is directly associated with the concept of "Jewish Bolshevism".[60]" TBH, I think Cruz is just an opportunist. He hates Trump, but he still sucks up to Trump because he thinks it helps his career. I think he feels the same way about nazis. Cruz is extremely well-educated, he knows where the theory comes from and why it's bullshit. But he also knows that there is a growing nazi movement in America, so he figures he can make some money off of them.

I didn't bother reading your post after this, because it proves you didn't read mine. I blatantly said the cultural marxism theory is a nazi theory. And while people like Ted Cruz probably aren't nazis, he's still promoting the theory for nazis. Conservatives have really given up defending their points, all they do is strawman now.

Here are some of the companies that conservatives tried, and failed, to cancel: Disney, Gillette, Starbuck's, Nike, Mr. Potato Head, Dr. Seuss, Netflix, Keurig, and most recently Anheuser-Busch. Despite the claims of "go woke, go broke" all of these companies are doing fine. Disney especially has been thriving, despite DeSantis' fashy attacks on them.

Considering no vaccine is 100%, that definition actually should be changed. The best vaccines offer near immunity, but no vaccine has a 100% success rate.

So I don't know nearly as much about British politics, but I looked into this case, and it seems like the university acted alone in getting Favaro kicked out. There's no evidence of a concerted effort by the public to silence her, outside of her own dubious claims. I don't agree with the decision, but this isn't an example of liberal or leftist media whipping people up to get someone fired, or a case of an angry mob taking it upon themselves to get her fired.

I do wonder about that. Sometimes it seems like democrats think that fascism is bad, but not as bad as leftism.

Conservatives say this about all the companies they try to cancel and nothing ever happens.

They already have government regulations. And how have they forfeited their right to anything?

But it is okay to say that "cultural marxism" is a nazi theory, which is what I said. I don't think Ted Cruz is a nazi, but he uses this nazi theory to dog whistles to nazis.

Not what I said. I said they're guessing why it is that co-ops work better than capitalist corporations. They've already accepted that socialism works better than capitalism, they're spitballing why that is. And again, I think the reason it's hard for them to understand is because they grew up with pro-capitalist propaganda. Get back here with those goalposts. If a co-op small business is less likely to fail than a single owner small business, then that means co-ops have a higher success rate. Sure, but often they can't afford to. In most cases, the democracy of a publicly traded company is between people who don't even work in that company. It's fine if companies want to go public, but if they're going to do democracy through stock options, then every employee should get a share for free before they start selling to other rich people. This is literally the system we have now. In a democracy, the people use the government to enforce the rules, which keeps people from becoming warlords. The only difference is that in a socialist country, wealth would be more evenly spread throughout the country, meaning billionaires won't be able to buy and sell politicians. This means the public would have a greater hold over the government. I'm not one of those people who stupidly says we don't have a democracy, we have an oligarchy, but I do accept that with capitalism, the rich and powerful have much more political power than the general public. Absolutely not. Both of them, especially Trump, went bankrupt several times, only to be bailed out. Then when they wanted to try again, they were given subsidies. They also pay less in taxes than the workers. Trump actually said all of this about Musk. He pointed out that the only reason Musk is still rich is because of government subsidies. The irony is that the same thing applies to Trump. It was a perfect case of pot meet kettle. Fred Trump was a millionaire. By the time he died, his net worth was around $250 million. So yes, Donald was born into wealth and he inherited millions from his father. While Elon Musk isn't literally retarded like Trump, his father Errol Musk owned an emerald mine in Africa. So yes, also born into wealth and also only still rich because of subsidies. Link me any list of the top ten richest people. I guarantee at least half of them will have been people who were born into wealth. And that's not to say all of them are worthless like Trump. Bill Gates is extremely smart and has contributed plenty to society. But he was also born into wealth, so he had a head start that most people never did. Who knows how many kids could have grown up to be the next Bill Gates, but didn't have his opportunities? If you know nothing about socialism, sure, that's exactly what it does. But in the real world, no. Socialism actually creates a more level playing field so that there's a better chance of the cream rising to the top. This short comic details the issue of classism really well. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/the-wireless/373065/the-pencilsword-on-a-plate

You're being bad faith because you know I'm right. I didn't say you were a nazi for believing someone when they claim to be a commie. I'm saying you believe the nazi theory of cultural marxism.

Yes, I granted that in my last post. Some Republicans voted to impeach Trump, then when it got to the senate, some voted guilty. But in both cases, the anti-trumpism Republicans were a small minority. Parties and movements aren't defined by the fringe, they're defined by the majority. When the majority of Republicans are willing to back Trump even after he tried to end our democracy, then the GOP is an authoritarian party or, at the very least, an autocratic party. This goes for the Democrats too. Are they a liberal party or a leftist party? Well, they have some leftists, but the vast majority of them are liberals, many of which are pretty right-leaning. So while the DNC has a left-wing fringe, it's still a liberal centrist party.

Dishonest on your part. The article is guessing why co-ops are more effective, probably because whoever wrote it has your kind of thinking, that it goes against human nature. Which is incorrect and only a common view because of capitalist propaganda. They're not saying "they might be successful" as in we've yet to see co-ops that function. All of the data shows that they function well. https://medium.com/swlh/want-to-change-the-world-a-more-efficient-stable-and-better-startup-model-e6fc58560150 https://www.fastcompany.com/40572926/more-u-s-businesses-are-becoming-worker-co-ops-heres-why Smaller businesses are also less likely to lose profits and go bankrupt when they're co-ops. Success doesn't just mean infinit growth. The vast majority of new businesses fail pretty quickly. The fact that co-ops are less likely to fail is an argument alone for socialism. Well that's why I'm not a communist. Like I said, I think a stateless society would just devolve into a lot of feudal states. Warlords would pop up, they'd have their own police force, they'd make the laws, it would basically just be feudalism. Government is a way to keep that from happening. If there's one thing Donald Trump and Elon Musk have proven, it's that meritocracy can't exist with capitalism. When you have a bourgeoisie, the laws will inevitably be made to favor them. We can reduce how bad this, the social democracies of Europe have done a pretty good job. But as long as we have a bourgeoisie, there will be people like Trump and Musk who are born into wealth, fail at almost everything, but keep getting bailouts and subsidies simply for being part of the upper-class. Meanwhile, people born into poverty have to be careful to not fail even once. Socialism is much better for meritocracy because it creates a race where we all start closer to the same point. Not completely, there will always be inequality, but it wouldn't be nearly as bad as with capitalism.
