Cates and Kruger are correct. ‘Cultural Marxism’ is a perfectly plausible label - conceptually and historically - to capture the outlook of many progressives today. That’s why keyboard warriors on Wikipedia devote so much time and energy to demonising the phrase.

‘Civilisation is actually quite fragile ... It requires confidence, confidence in the society in which one lives, belief in its philosophy, belief in its laws ... If one asks why the civilisation of Greece and Rome collapsed, the real answer is that it was exhausted.’
“In a new age of great power competition and civilisational decline, it is increasingly important that we move beyond the indulgence of London-centric ‘groundhog day’ narratives of Western self-loathing, to rediscover a sense of purpose and belonging."

‘Today’s party conference will most likely be the last the Conservatives enjoy in power for some time. Next year may prove a 1997 moment or even a Canadian-style annihilation … but the New Conservatives will be worth watching. We might even get a Tory government one day.’
