Sita Ram Goyal ji aptly put it as Communism + Allah = Islam#CulturalMarxism
The Cultural Marxists’ control over their perceived reality must be absolute. Those that speak out against them are demoralized, and all opposing thoughts are considered “hate speech.” Dissent is not allowed, and everyone must follow blindly without allowing for original thought.
Therefore, the goal of the Cultural Marxists is to relentlessly control their message. To control their message, they must control all forms of media, educational institutions, and even religious organizations.
The theory behind Cultural Marxism originated in a school located in Frankfurt, Germany. Originally called the Institute for Marxism, the group changed its name to the Institute for Social Research. Founded in 1923 by Felix Weil, the institute was affiliated with Frankfurt University in Germany. Because of its location, the institute eventually began being referred to as the Frankfurt School.
In this proposed society, there was no God. The state and its political philosophies were to be a new religion. Plus, they believed that only in the ashes of capitalism could real social change would occur. However, what exactly that change would be was never fully conceptualized.
A Hungarian Bolshevik by the name of György Lukács chaired the weeklong symposium. Known for his disastrous bout as the People’s Commissar for Education in Hungary in 1919, he injected his radical left-wing agenda into the symposium. During his short time as the Commissar in Hungary, he promoted a policy that he called “Cultural Terrorism” to destroy JudeoChristian values and the basic family unit.
His policy introduced a new sex education program to public schools that radically contradicted the moral standards of the day. Free sex and the antiquated nature of monogamy were taught to all schoolchildren. This disastrous policy was quickly dismantled after the overthrow of his political party. Though Lukács never became a member of the Frankfurt School, his beliefs shaped its underlying philosophies.
Horkheimer recruited Erich Fromm, a social psychologist, to join the school soon after his tenure. Fromm expanded upon Lukács’s radical sexual beliefs. His early writings extolled how sexual orientation was a mere social construct created artificially by society. He taught that masculinity and femininity were also social constructs and that there were no differences between the sexes.
Herbert Marcuse joined the school in 1932. Soon after, the institute moved to Geneva after the Nazi takeover. It then settled in Columbia University, located in New York until 1949 before returning to Germany. Marcuse was credited for injecting the Frankfurt School’s radical agenda into American universities across the country.
By the 1960s, the impact of the Frankfurt School could be seen throughout all of Western society. As the political left embraced more of its theories, the school’s policies slowly trickled into public schools, universities, businesses, academia, and the mainstream media.
This idea of total societal upheaval was introduced to the Frankfurt School through the writings of an Italian socialist by the name of Antonio Gramsci. It was his belief that if you want to change the economics of a society, you must first change its culture. He believed that economics is downstream from culture as opposed to the prevailing classical Marxist belief that culture lies downstream from economics.
He believed Western culture was the main roadblock stopping the glorious communist revolution. His goal was to replace JudeoChristian values and beliefs with a new region. This religion would not be based upon God or any coherent moral code. This religion would be one created by the people in the form of government. Instead of turning to religion, people would instead turn to the state. God would not bring them their livelihood; the state would.
In addition to attacking traditional JudeoChristian values, Gramsci believed that the entirety of Western culture needed to be eroded into nothingness. As the entire culture rotted, Gramsci proposed that people would be less self-reliant and more dependent on the state. When this occurred, it would usher in a great communist state and abolish self-governance. His goal to accomplish this task was a process to which he labeled “The Long March” through Western culture.
He sought to capture the youngest and most impressionable in society first. Therefore, the march needed to go through the public school systems and continue into the newspapers, mass media, literature, and theater. People’s minds needed to be infiltrated at all times and with as many means as necessary. This long march would be slow but relentless in nature until it overtook every aspect of Western society. It would only be then when the general public was totally brainwashed, could a true revolution begin.
The mainstream media has also been infiltrated by Marxism and the Frankfurt School of thought. You can not turn on the television or pick up any publication without becoming inundated with left-leaning messages.
The figurative march through the institutions has now, regrettably, engrained itself within our government and, worse yet, in our armed services. Instead of being taught how to win wars, some soldiers are indoctrinated into Cultural Marxism ideology. No longer are military recruits taught of America’s greatness.
#CriticalRaceTheory
CRT stems from an intellectual practice known as Critical Theory, which is the brainchild of the Frankfurt School. First published by the school in a 1937 essay "Traditional and Critical Theory" by Max Horkheimer, it was described as an exercise “to liberate human beings from circumstances which enslave them.” And the circumstances to which he warns about is capitalism.
Critical Theory’s goal, as outlined by Horkheimer and supported by the rest of the Frankfort School, is to destructively criticize all Western institutions, ideas, and beliefs in an attempt to destroy them. Only through their eradication would the enslavement perpetrated by capitalism on its people come to an end. The objective of Critical Theory is not one of productivity; it is solely an exercise in destruction.
The criteria to employ Critical Theory is actually a very simplistic exercise. Its basic hypothesis is that all Western institutions are inherently prejudiced against minority groups. There is no exception to the rule. It is an absolute and dogmatic belief, without exceptions being allowed. Every Western institution is considered an oppressing force, subjugating a minority or “underprivileged group.”
The practice of applying Critical Theory begins with identifying a particular group or “institution” as the oppressor or as privileged. Anyone else is then designated as the oppressed or in an underprivileged group. In this scenario, those in the oppressor category must accept their assignment without question. They must understand that by their mere existence, they are inherently oppressing a minority group or groups of people. If they deny this designation, the person is said to have internalized their pathology and is negatively labeled by the Critical Theorists. They are then called terms such as racist, homophobe, sexist, misogynist, or xenophobe, for example.
The next step in this practice, as author Alasdair Elder in his book “The Red Trojan Horse” explains, is to create a victim narrative. The goal is to prove how minority groups have been victimized by the majority and how this problem is “systemic.” For example, how many times have we been told that the entire legal system and all cops are “systemically racist”?
Using Critical Theory, Cultural Marxists then expand this idea of systemic racism to every institution in traditional Western society. Nothing and no one is spared from these attacks
Finally, for the Critical Theory to be complete, a comprehensive feedback loop needs to be created. This loop is generated by reinforcing the narrative as many times as possible and by as many outlets as possible. Let the public be inundated wherever they go: the internet, newspapers, TV, schools, movies, and radio. Let the message become ingrained in them, whereby it eventually becomes their truth.
The goal of CRT is to examine everything through the lens of racism. By its nature, it believes racism is ingrained in all institutions. CRT suggests that history can be defined as a power struggle between racist oppressors and disenfranchised minorities. Individuality is not prioritized in such a process. Instead, entire groups of people and their relationships within this racial struggle are examined.
One of the ultimate goals of the Cultural Marxists and Frankfurt School is to create a society of victims. It’s a society whereby no one needs to take responsibility for their actions, and there is always another person or group to blame for their misfortunes. People in this new society look to the outside in search of what is wrong with them instead of turning to themselves. Happiness is believed to be an external event and not internal in nature. It ultimately creates an atmosphere of resentment. It teaches people to believe that the only way a situation could get better is if other people change or if society changes as a whole.
The Cultural Marxists have slowly shifted political differences from an economic viewpoint to one of social identity. This perspective reiterates their belief that economics lies downstream from culture. Instead of news organizations or politicians concentrating on economic issues and political policies, the thrust of many conversations has now turned to a person’s identity.
The Cultural Marxists and Frankfurt School take their warped logic one step further. They believe that they alone have a monopoly on truth and that dissenters lack any moral rights to their point of view. Not only do the Cultural Marxists want to censor free speech, but now they also want to intrinsically change speech itself.
If someone is taught how to speak, teaching them how to think and what to believe is that much easier. The great George Orwell novel “1984” warned that the one who controls the language controls the mind.
A popular term the Cultural Marxists also use to stigmatize those that disagree with them is “fascist.” The irony is that most of them have no clue what a fascist is or why they use the term so flagrantly and ignorantly
Though modern-day Cultural Marxists believe that they are calling a person Hitler when labeling them as a fascist, what they are pointing out unknowingly is that the person actually holds conservative values. So faith in God, country, and law and order is actually fascist, according to Theodor Adorno’s F-Scale.
Another method by which Cultural Marxists shut down free speech and independent thought is through a concept called sensitivity training. Though the concept seems like a modern creation, it was also the brainchild of Theodor Adorno.
Corporate America, the media, and the American education system have been implementing their own form of sensitivity training for years throughout the country. By repeating certain messages, employing certain programs, and adhering to the same Marxist doctrines, the Cultural Marxists’ messages have permeated into the subconscious mind of America and all of Western culture.
No other person has learned to implement the beliefs of the Cultural Marxists as effectively and ruthlessly as the famed American Communist Saul Alinsky. He was known as a political organizer and had garnered many well-known disciples around the country. Some of the noblest of these include Cesar Chavez, Hillary Clinton, Bill Ayers, and Bernardine Dohrn. Later followers included the likes of former President Obama and Congresswomen Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In fact, Hillary Clinton’s 1969 college thesis was on Saul Alinsky
Saul Alinsky, Obama & Clinton - Beware the Useful Idiots
In Sun Tzu’s “Art of War,” he writes, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained, you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
So you need to understand what is #CulturalMarxist as u need to know the adversary and his ways to defeat them. In Indian context we to defeat Cultural Marxist we need to go back to our culture our values, make sure our education system and children remain far away from Gender Fluidity and other marxist influence
This Cultural Marxism is thus a Godless Ideology who aim is to disconnect people from the culture as man with roots will be easy to control in The New Global Order and he can be useful idiots for the elites to propagate their agendas. We did cover this in our book #TheNewGlobalOrder !

https://scroll.in/article/882736/caste- ... t-the-wordClosed, normatively endogamous communities have a long history in Southern Asia. Over the past millennium, they have been labeled with the Sanskrit “jati”, Arabic “qaum”, Persian “zat” and others. But we have long known that there is no equivalent word for “caste” in any Indian or Asian language. It came as a loan-word but is today firmly embedded in Indian public and policy discourse. We also know that the first users of the term (as casta) were Iberians – Portuguese and Spanish, first in the Iberian peninsula and then in Asia and the Americas. But how the term was used – descriptively, administratively, and sociologically – is less known.
Two Iberian Empires initiated and, for more than a century, controlled all the trans-Oceanic ventures of modern Europeans. These were the Spanish in the Americas and the Portuguese in Asia. Several Iberian kingdoms had begun a campaign of religious persecution against Jews in the 1300s. Many converted under duress. But to the dismay of many “old Christian” churchmen in cushy sinecures, the educated and affluent among the Jewish converts then began to rise in Church and royal service.
Classification by descent
Furthermore, converts’ prominence among tax-collectors naturally made them unpopular with poorer Christians. The interests of clerics and plebeians thus coalesced first in pogroms and then in justifying their hostility via a doctrine of “purity of blood” – the idea that only “old Christians” were worthy of favour in Spanish and Portuguese society. Protagonists of the new idea had to contend against long-established Church doctrine of all humans are redeemable through Christ. Quite remarkably, they nonetheless succeeded in prioritising biological descent above spiritual redemption.
It followed that “New Christians”, “conversos” etc., especially those belonging to the “casta de judios”, should be carefully watched and vigilantly excluded from offices of status. (The above is drawn largely from Albert Sicroff, Le Controverse de Statuts de Pureté de Sang 1960.) This grew into a settled prejudice that intensified into the 19th century. “Casta” before 1500 had tended to refer to type or breed of plant or animal: but it now came to mean a species of human marked by descent. It was thus verging on the emerging concept of race. Even today a standard dictionary illustrates its meaning with the phrase “eso me viene de casta” rendered as “it’s in my blood”.
It is not surprising that when the Iberians came to Asia and the Americas, they promptly began classifying people by descent. Even at the time, Indians did not marry outside a specific set of families, or “caste” defined as a “marriage-pool”. Iberians however promptly decided that this was motivated by a drive to preserve the purity of their “blood”. This was pointed out by the American anthropologist Morton Klass. At the same time, the Spanish and Portuguese also began creating a “sistema de castas”, a caste system in the Spanish Americas.
Ignacio María Barreda, Depiction of the Casta System in Mexico
Language exchange
Spain and Portugal were united under one monarchy from 1580 to 1640. More importantly, they were also bound by the powerful racial ideology well embedded in the Iberian Catholic Church. The Portuguese introduced later-coming Europeans to the Indian subcontinent and Indians to a new kind of Westerner. Many Portuguese loanwords entered the languages of Asia. One of these was casta, anglicised to cast or caste. But while this etymology is well-known, most discourse has assumed that the loan-word was applied to a pre-existing and very old indigenous social institution, an institution that has remained unchanged until the present.
In the 20th century, with the mounting cultural power of the USA, proponents of this view have increasingly assimilated caste to the Western idea of race. They have also assumed it to be confined to the Hindu segment of the Indian population. This has been a powerful and persistent trope, even though many specialists, such as the veteran sociologist Joseph Elder, have listed seven errors in the popular Western understanding of caste.
One of these was that “Castes are uniquely Hindu”. He wrote that in India, “castes exist among Christians, Jains, Sikhs, Buddhists, and Muslims.” Frequently the rules about marrying within one’s caste and avoiding interactions with other castes are as strict among Christians or Jains, for instance. as they are among Hindus. Elder also puts his finger on a key element of its durability. This was that the British colonial regime – the most influential of South Asian empires – deployed it in its legal and political system.
The American anthropologist Morton Klass also attempted a historical account of the origin of caste as a concept and a practice. He pointed out that the Portuguese and Spanish were themselves just evolving a system of ethnic and social stratification by biological ancestry; it was for this reason that they immediately assumed that Indian jāti endogamous groups were aimed at maintaining “purity of blood”.
The early response was, however, not to attack caste but to reduce most features of it to a concern of civil society, external to the faith (adiaphora). Converts of different castes were thus permitted separate churches. According to the famous Jesuit missionary Nobili, this was an established practice by 1615. Indeed, Nobili approvingly quoted a Brahman convert who had responded to the criticism that Nobili’s coluor was evidence to his being a despicable “prangui” (barbaric Westerner).
