Corbett: An integral left critique of 'cultural Marxism'

Following up on this post, Corbett:

"'Cultural Marxism' is a phrase often used by the alt-right and people like Jordan Peterson to describe the current manifestation of the left in America, such as BLM and Critical Race Theory. However, on closer examination it is a phrase that emerges from a misunderstanding of the history of the intellectual left in the 20th century, and is misused to describe the left broadly. Worse, it is a catch-phrase used to discredit the left in a single stroke, much as the term 'socialism' has been used as an equivalent for authoritarian and totalitarian regimes, pre-emptively dismissing any serious consideration of its meaning and possibilities. In short, 'cultural marxism' belongs to the lexicon of right-wing propaganda against everything from the left. [...] Stop slandering and delegitimizing the radical left more broadly for the neo-tribal interests that these SJW's represent."
