Okay, so the "Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution" wasn't Marxist? And what about the many, many scholars who tried to understand culture using a Marxist, historically-materialist analysis, e.g. in Britain? Just because "Cultural Marxism" was picked up as a label by conspiracy theorists, doesn't mean that nothing like it exists in the real world.

The people understanding culture using Marxist theory, would be using Marxist Dialectic, not "Cultural Marxism".

I just gave you list of example theories without any value function, conspiracy theories are also theories smartie. Using 'conspiracy' in front of it mean that you already judge them.

You fatally misunderstood my comment, and continue to misunderstand my responses. I know someone who would consider this in and of itself, a hostile act. I however, do not.

My point wasn't that Marxism as a whole does not exist, as you seem to have replied. My point was that "Cultural Marxism" specifically does not exist, and is literally neo-nazi propaganda.
