Cultural Marxism comprises much of the foundation of [[Critical Theory]] which formed into current times as [[Political Correctness]].

The central idea of Cultural Marxism is to soften up and prepare Western Civilization for economic Marxism or leanings towards socialism after a gradual, relentless, sustained attack on classifications of groups, as well as every institution of Western culture, including schools, literature, art, film, the Judeo-Christian religious tradition, the family, sexual mores, national sovereignty, etc. The attacks are usually framed in Marxist terms as a class struggle between oppressors and oppressed; the members of the latter class allegedly include women, minorities, homosexuals, and adherents of non-Western ideologies such as Islam. Cultural Marxism has been described as "the cultural branch of globalism." | The central idea of Cultural Marxism is to soften up and prepare Western Civilization for economic Marxism or leanings towards socialism after a gradual, relentless, sustained attack on classifications of groups, as well as every institution of Western culture, including schools, literature, art, film, the Judeo-Christian religious tradition, the family, sexual mores, national sovereignty, etc. The attacks are usually framed in Marxist terms as a class struggle between oppressors and oppressed; the members of the latter class allegedly include women, minorities, homosexuals, and adherents of non-Western ideologies such as Islam.
