Cultural Marxism is the radical political philosophy that is transforming America. The primary tool used to leverage this philosophy is Political Correctness. The incubator of this philosophy and its associated tools was the Communist think-tank, the Frankfurt School.

The Frankfurt School was formed in Germany as the Institute of Social Research (Institut für Sozialforschung) at Frankfurt University in 1923 by a group of German intellectuals who shared a common belief in Karl Marx’s theory of Historical Materialism.

Influenced by the failure of working-class revolutions in Western Europe after World War I and by the rise of Nazism, these men set out to select the parts of Marx's thought that might apply to social conditions that Marx had never experienced. They then drew on other schools of thought, including Sigmund Freud, to fill in what they perceived to be Marx's omissions, resulting in the concept of the "Cultural Revolution," first postulated by the Italian Marxist, Antonio Gramsci.

Gramsci observed that the traditional concept of revolution and revolutionary strategy were dead. Marxists needed to wage a cultural revolution -- one directed toward the cultural establishment, including the morality of the existing society, with its goal being the complete disintegration of the system.

A modern utopia could then be constructed by idealistic intellectuals, the elites, who would turn Western civilization upside down. This utopia would be a product of their imagination and one not open to criticism.

During the Nazi era the Frankfurt School relocated to Switzerland in 1932. In 1935 the entire school was transferred to New York City. It's members migrating to major U.S. universities, such as, Columbia, Princeton, Brandeis, and U. C. Berkeley.

In 1941 the school moved again -- this time -- to Hollywood.

In America, the task of the Frankfurt School was to undermine its Judeo-Christian legacy through the Abolition of Culture (Aufhebung der Kultur), and to implement new cultural forms that would increase the alienation of the population, thus creating a new barbarism.

After World War I and the rise of Hitler, the Frankfurt School reconciled Marxist theory with the reality of what the people and governments of the world were experiencing. Each member of the school adjusted Marx's theories with his personal changes and additions. They then used the fixed Marxist theory as a measure of what would work in a modern society. These ideas came to be known as Critical Theory.
