| | Cultural Marxism is a [[Theory]] regarding the development of societies. It argues that a small clique of [[Left-Wing|left-leaning]] individuals - usually [[judeo-Marxism|judeo-marxist]] - reach important positions of authority with regards to public discourse, such as university professors, movie producers or news aggregators, through a process known as the "[[Long March through the Institutions]]", to only Then influence said public discourse towards more "progressive" ideals. It is also sometimes argued that this is done through the help of subversive elements within the system such as the [[Capitalist class|bourgeoisie]], in particular bankers (whether [[Central banking|central]] or not). |

|
| '''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.
| | It is utilized particularly within the American New Right (also called the "[[Alt-Right]]"), which argues that it has worked to degrade the United States and its people since at least the post-[[The World's War Against Communism |Second Brothers War]] era, really gaining traction with the [[Hippy Subculture |Hippy]] and [[Civil Rights movement |Civil Rights movements]]. ย |

| ==Terminology==
| |
| {{Template:White guilt}}
| |
| Cultural Marxism is a term used by critics and even self-admitted Marxists are unlikely to use the term to describe their own ideology. Also, Cultural Marxism has its origin in [[Marxist]] ideas but those promoting the ideas of Cultural Marxism today may not always know of this or consider themselves to be Marxists. ย
| |
|
| |
|
| Instead, promoters of Cultural Marxism may use terms such as critical theory, postmodernism, deconstruction, or similar terms. Many do not know the origin of their own somewhat Cultural Marxist ideas and may, for example, describe themselves as [[social liberals]].

| ==General description== | | =Certification standards= |
| Since culture is considered the primary factor which sustain inequalities, Cultural Marxism is opposed to other explanations for inequalities such as religious explanations, individual choices, or genetic factors.
| | As the present professional certification standards are so abysmal as to make truly neutral works suspect in accuracy. the cultural relaxation that good entertainment provided has also dissipated and classical pursuits and hobbies have been making a comeback as a result. This is for the better. Considering our own movement is heavily tied to that. But overall, the lamentation for good commercial works is a very common complaint nowadays. |
|
| |
|
| Unlike [[Marxism]] which primarily focuses on economic inequalities and economic classes, Cultural Marxism see culture as a main cause for many different kinds of inequalities:
| | =Lost Standards= |
| *Race (Whites/non-Whites)
| | The lost standards are all a byproduct of the decreased capability of the producers, however, as one's works are but a reflection of himself. Largely this could be tied into [[jews|jewish]] nepotism and taking on a much heavier hand of not allowing non tribe [[loyalists]] into Their networks of distribution. But it also casts a dim light upon a race of men which grew up to be the inheritors of human destiny squandering Their spiritual legacy and the rest of our collective potential for misbegotten pride. Arrogance to think they alone had the right to decide. |
| *Culture (Western/non-Western)
| |
| *Family (nuclear family/non-nuclear family)
| |
| *Religion (Christianity/atheism and religious minorities)
| |
| *Gender (men/women)
| |
| *Sexual orientation (heterosexual/[[LGBT]])
| |
|
| |
|
| Cultural Marxism places great emphasis on analyzing, controlling, and changing the popular culture, the popular discourse, the mass media, and the language itself. Seeing culture as often having more or less subconscious influences on people which create and sustain inequalities, Cultural Marxists themselves often try to remove these inequalities by more or less subtle manipulation and censorship of culture.

Yes, experts have sunken so low as to almost be regarded in the same way one would think of a confidence man or criminal. |
| A term describing such censorship is [[political correctness]] where all views on equality that disagree with the Cultural Marxist view are avoided, censored, and punished.
| |
| ย | |
| Related to Cultural Marxism are various forms of [[relativism]]/[[subjectivism]] and denial of the existence of objective knowledge.
| |
| ย | |
| The phrase "The long march through the institutions of power" refers to Cultural Marxists slowly taking over key positions in the institutions controlling culture in order to create a new culture. In effect this will create revolutionary changes without having to resort to political violence. It also reflects a worldview where Cultural Marxists view themselves as infiltrators and subversives. (The phrase is often attributed to [[Antonio Gramsci]] but was instead coined by another Cultural Marxist ([[Rudi Dutschke]]) who was influenced by Gramsci's ideas.)
| |
| ย | |
| ==The Frankfurt School and critical theory==
| |
| The idea that a culture may be problematic is not new but Cultural Marxism in its current form originates in the [[Frankfurt School]]. The Frankfurt School is a neo-Marxist school which originated around 1923 at the Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt, Germany.
| |
| ย | |
| The Frankfurt School developed [[critical theory]] in order to analyze and explain how culture creates inequalities. It has been extremely influential and today has branches in numerous fields such as critical race theory, critical whiteness studies, critical gender studies, critical criminology, critical legal studies, etc.
| |
| ย | |
| [[Freudian]] [[psychoanalysis]] was an important influence on critical theory. One example is the influential book ''[[The Authoritarian Personality]]'' where psychoanalytic ideas are used to pathologize Western love and pride of Christianity, the family, and the nation.
| |
| ย | |
| The tendency to pathologize opponents as being irrationally sick has continued with, for example, labels such as [[homophobia]] and [[Islamophobia]].
| |
| ย | |
| ==Later ideologies and movements==
| |
| The Frankfurt School was an important influence behind the various leftist movements which started in the 1960s.
| |
| ย | |
| Many later cultural ideologies such as [[postmodernism]], [[postcolonialism]], [[deconstruction]], and [[multiculturalism]] are heavily influenced byย critical theory. [[Kevin MacDonald]] writes in the ''[[Culture of Critique]]'' that they adopted principles such as "the fundamental priority of ethics and values in approaching education and the social sciences; empirical science as oppressive and an aspect of social domination; a rejection of the possibility of shared values or any sense of universalism or national culture; a "hermeneutics of suspicion" in which any attempt to construct such universals or a national culture is energetically resisted and "deconstructed"".<ref>Kevin B. MacDonald. The Culture of Critique. 1998, 2002.ย 1st Books Library.</ref>
| |
| ย | |
| See also the article on [[Relativism]].
| |
| ย | |
| ==Pseudosciences==
| |
| The various ideologies originating in the Frankfurt school can (like Marxism and psychoanalysis) be considered pseudosciences with theories that cannot be falsified. Often not replying to the factual arguments of critics, the critics are instead often analyzed with the theories and declared to be sick or having hidden motives ([[ad hominem]]). They are often similar to sects with adored and charismatic leaders and cleansing of heretics in the own group with less than orthodox views.
| |
| ย | |
| ==Jewish group evolutionary strategy==
| |
| [[Kevin MacDonald]] argues in the ''[[Culture of Critique]]'' that critical theories and later ideologies are part of a [[Jewish group evolutionary strategy]]. The members of the early Frankfurt School were Jews as were many of the later influential individuals (as well as [[Marx]] and [[Freud]]). These Jews in their own writings often expressed a strong Jewish identity and concern with Jewish interests.ย Undermining and dividing a strong group identity among the majority as well as strengthening the position of minorities was seen as important and beneficial for Jewish interests. He furthermore argues for a [[double standard]] (sometimes involving self-deception) where the Jewish culture/group in practice is seen as superior and not to be affected by the cultural changes affecting the inferior majority.
| |
| ย | |
| Kevin MacDonald has also argued for similarities between the esoteric and pseudoscientific textual analysis in Cultural Marxism and the esoteric and pseudoscientific Jewish textual analysis in [[Torah study]] (such as the sophistic hair-splitting in [[pilpul]]). Such textual analyses have long been very important parts of Jewish culture and religion.
| |
| ย | |
| ==Boasian anthropology and other intellectual movements==
| |
| [[Boasian anthropology]] is a pseudo-intellectual movement that appeared in the [[United States|USA]] before the Frankfurt School. Kevin MacDonald has argued that it is another Jewish influenced intellectual movement with similar motivations and effects. Roger Pearson is particularly scathing of Boas and his followers and the way they gradually perverted the science of anthropology for political purposes.<ref>Pearson, Professor Dr. Roger, ''Heredity and Humanity: Race Eugenics and Modern Science'', Scott-Townsend Publishers, Washington D.C., 1996, ISBN: 1-878365-15-5</ref>
| |
| ย | |
| MacDonald has also argued that similar developments in '''[[sociology]]''' and other social sciences where the increasing influence of often Jewish intellectuals is argued to have caused a decline of Darwinism and other biological perspectives. For example, in sociology, the names of [[Karl Marx]], [[Max Weber]], and [[รmile Durkheim]] replaced those of [[Charles Darwin]] and [[Herbert Spencer]].
| |
| ย | |
| In '''psychology''' the early biologically/genetically influenced perspective influenced by Charles Darwin and his half-cousin [[Francis Galton]] lost influence to movements such as [[psychoanalysis]] and [[behaviorism]]. Also here political considerations and networking are argued to have been very important.<ref name=ld>Subversion of Science: How Psychology Lost Darwin. http://codoh.com/library/document/3021/</ref>
| |
| ย | |
| ==Modern art==
| |
| The Frankfurt School has also been associated with certain forms of modern art.
| |
| ย | |
| See also the article on [[Degenerate art]].
| |
| ย | |
| ==A conspiracy theory?==
| |
| Leftist sources often dismiss Cultural Marxism not by using factual arguments but instead by labeling it a "[[conspiracy theory]]". This can be seen as a form of [[guilt by association]] instead of a factual argument. Also, Kevin MacDonald has rejected an overarching conspiracy similar to ''[[The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion]]'' (see the article [[Jewish group evolutionary strategy]]).
| |
| ย | |
| The Institute for Social Research in Frankfurt was/is no secret conspiracy group but open regarding its intents and had/has many similarities to modern think thanks/"policy institutes" which openly advocate certain ideas/ideologies and try to influence and shape public discourse, culture, and society.

Cultural Marxism is a Theory regarding the development of societies. It argues that a small clique of left-leaning individuals - usually judeo-marxist - reach important positions of authority with regards to public discourse, such as university professors, movie producers or news aggregators, through a process known as the "Long March through the Institutions", to only Then influence said public discourse towards more "progressive" ideals. It is also sometimes argued that this is done through the help of subversive elements within the system such as the bourgeoisie, in particular bankers (whether central or not).
It is utilized particularly within the American New Right (also called the "Alt-Right"), which argues that it has worked to degrade the United States and its people since at least the post-Second Brothers War era, really gaining traction with the Hippy and Civil Rights movements.
Movies
First the devolution of movies is well document across multiple websites and general decreasing critical reception. Everything from post processing becoming the defining element of virtually all cinema to the writing and acting deteriorating into flaccid, unoriginal content. Bordering on unwatchable in most cases. Worse, this rendered the educational benefits of television and documentaries all but voided and created an almost miniature dark age. As trying to find anything current and reliable from high dollar productions in an exercise in futility. Forcing many back to research ten or even twenty years old to find reliable research material.
Certification standards
As the present professional certification standards are so abysmal as to make truly neutral works suspect in accuracy. the cultural relaxation that good entertainment provided has also dissipated and classical pursuits and hobbies have been making a comeback as a result. This is for the better. Considering our own movement is heavily tied to that. But overall, the lamentation for good commercial works is a very common complaint nowadays.
Lost Standards
The lost standards are all a byproduct of the decreased capability of the producers, however, as one's works are but a reflection of himself. Largely this could be tied into jewish nepotism and taking on a much heavier hand of not allowing non tribe loyalists into Their networks of distribution. But it also casts a dim light upon a race of men which grew up to be the inheritors of human destiny squandering Their spiritual legacy and the rest of our collective potential for misbegotten pride. Arrogance to think they alone had the right to decide.
