"Cultural Marxism" is the idea that a bunch of German Hegelians from the 1930s are secretly masterminding the fall of western civilizations. You think it is a coincidence that the conspiracy theory happens to claim a bunch of Jewish guys the Nazis were mad at are the problem. Neo-Nazis warmed up some of old uncle Adolph's left overs and a bunch of morons uncritically adopted it
Oh no, you said Nazis, I guess you win the argument!
Cultural Marxism describes a set of far left social views that are known by a variety of names like social justice, intersectionality, critical theory, and likely others I can't recall off the top of my head. Maybe "Cultural Marxism" isn't the best term for this ideology, but because the believers often try to obfuscate their beliefs and agenda, their opponents needed to come up with words to identify the movement.
Maybe "Cultural Marxism" isn't an ideal phrase, but it does draw upon the ideology's history. Which does include Marxists who wanted to extend the class struggle to include demographic groups like gender, race, or sexual preferences. This includes but is not limited to the Frankfurt School. Now, like I said, maybe the term isn't the best one we could be using, but just because some of the important figures in what people call Cultural Marxism were Jews or that Nazis also didn't like them doesn't mean that that it's some kind of anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.
To say that anybody claims that 1930's Hegelians are masterminding the fall of society is a strawman of such epic proportions that there should be a sacrifice inside of it.
Drop the Nazi BS, it's not impressing anybody here. It's a tangent anyway.
Do you think the victims of pedophiles are usually happy? Do you think people in abusive relationships are happy? If not, then where is the contradiction with what I said?
I didn't mention pedophilia. I mentioned a 13 year old having sex, which could be with another 13 year old, and I mentioned a 16 year old with a 50 year old which is not pedophilia and is in fact legal in most US states and nations around the world. Both of those coupling could make the people involved happy, though they have big problems too and could cause damage down the road. Are people in abusive relationships happy? Sometimes they are, at least temporarily.
There are countless things that young people could do that makes them happy in the short term but that could be destructive in the long term. That is why parents put restrictions on kids in countless ways. Why parents don't let kids eat ice cream for every meal or stay up every night to 4 AM playing video games. Along the same lines, the parent of a minor should put restrictions on who their children have relationships with, and even if the child is a legal adult and the parents can't force them to do anything, they should still offer guidance or even criticism of their relationship choices.
To say that parents should be alright with anybody their kids have sex with as long as the kid is happy is the height of absurdity.
The difference is that people who care what religion or race or economic status their kids partner has are concerned about things that don't actually touch on their ability to be a good partner. If you think dating a black person or a man is going to ruin your son's life, that is a really dumb position. You've basically admitted this comes down to whatever irrational prejudices the parents have being grounds to kick their kid out of the house.
I never said that parents should kick their kids out of the house! I have disagreed with doing that multiple times!
I said that different parents have different kinds of objections to sexual (and hopefully also romantic) partners that their children may pick. A parent who didn't care at all would be insane. Any parent is going to have some things that they find troubling for ideological or potentially subjective reasons. If you had a teenage child and you heard their boyfriend or girlfriend refer to someone as a Cultural Marxist, that might cause you some concern. Parents whose kids select partners that they have a problem with are right to express their misgivings or even take action to oppose those relationships, even if you happen to disagree with their criteria for judging those partners.
