...Which doesn't even mention "Cultural Marxism". What I did find is this from Wikipedia: 'Cultural Marxism' in modern political parlance commonly refers to a conspiracy theory which sees the Frankfurt School as part of a contemporary movement within the political left to take over and destroy Western society.
And this gem: http://rationalwiki.org/w/images/c/cf/Dummies_Guide_to_Cultu...
So pretty standard /pol/ nonsense.

Cultural Marxism comes from the Frankfurt School betting on Gramsci realization that Marxism will not work if tried to be implanted by an armed revolution but with a "long run" cultural subversion that can dominate culturally its institutions. Example: from destroying family and individual identity (specially sexuality) you prepare dudes that _will_ fallback to depend on what's left: the state. When that happens, gravitating to political clientelism is a piece of cake (everyone will defend The Matrix unless it starts to collapse like in Venezuela is).
