Another name for the neo-Marxism of increasing popularity in the United States is "cultural Marxism.” This theory says the driving force behind the socialist revolution is not the proletariat—but the intellectuals. While Marxism has largely disappeared from the workers' movement, Marxist theory flourishes today in cultural institutions, in the academic world, and in the mass media.

The cultural Marxists drive society morally into an identity crisis by the means of the false standards of hypocritical ethics. The aim is no longer the "dictatorship of the proletariat"—because this project has failed—but the "dictatorship of political correctness," whose supreme authority lies in the hands of the cultural Marxists. As a new class of priests, the guardians of the new orthodoxy rule the institutions whose power they try to extend over all parts of society. The moral destruction of the individual is a necessary step to accomplish the final victory.
The problem with post cultural Marxism is that it teaches those of intersectionality class that they are oppressed, and that the straight male Christian man is the oppressor, and at times all straight men are the oppressor. At the end of it all, those of the intersectionality will start to fight each other. A good example is between white feminists and black feminists, than within black feminist you have immigrant black feminist vs native black feminists and so on. Same for the SJW which always fight within their own sect. Cultural Marxism is dangerous due to the fact that the idea allows plenty of identity politics based on race, and sex instead of class in which original Marxism talks about.
“Cultural Marxism” is a term invented by paranoid right-wing nutjobs to discredit policies they find to be threatening.
You mean like:
Identity Politics - Divide and conquer
Censorship of Speech (concept of hate speech, and Tech industry censorship)
Anti Capitalism
Propaganda called "news"
Open Borders
Destruction of American sovereignty (GLOBALISM)
Statism - give more, and more power, and control to government
Higher, and higher taxes on the productive
Identity Politics - Divide and conquer
The right also uses identity politics.
Censorship of Speech (concept of hate speech, and Tech industry censorship)
Free speech is not absolute and if it promotes violence it should be cracked down on. Absolute free speech just gives a platform to violent extremists.
Anti Capitalism
Marxism is anti capitalist yes but cultural Marxism is a made up phrase by the right that has nothing to do with actual Marxism.
Propaganda called "news"
Yes all major broadcasters have a right wing bias due to the large media conglomerates that control all the news in the US.
Cultural marxism is a nonsense phrase invented by the right to talk about a changing culture they don't like.
It is not a phrase that is coined by the right. Cultural Marxism was invented in Weimer Republic of Germany and is thought in the Frankfurt School. Cultural Marxism has been around for nearly a 100 years. Cultural Marxism just expands on Marxist is theory which notices the flaws in Marxism. Instead of the victimology being class, the victimology of the oppressed expands onto race, gender, sexual orientation, religion and forth.
