…that’s what they said about Karl Marx,unfortunately! Let’s hope the intellectuals on here Deeryme66,JI,NI,Gurney etc have a more in depth reply.

It doesn’t merit a more in depth reply than Siderite has already given Bpg. And you may recall The influence of The Frankfurt School and Neo-Marxism was brought up by you a year or so ago. Historically there has been some influence on academia, but there’s also been a high number of thinkers and writers like Popper, Nietzsche, and more recently the likes of Jordan Peterson, who influence the right and far right. It’s simply unfeasible to claim there is some neo-Marxism plot or movement to control the World. It’s poppycock for at least two reasons. One, you can’t prove it infallibly, and two, survey the global political and cultural landscape, it’s more right wing than ever. If you were saying all this before the fall of the USSR and other communist regimes you may have had a point. Saying it now just demonstrates you’ve bought the whole faux culture war championed by the right, hook line and sinker. It feeds off fear and paranoia.
