Justin Trudeau is a retard but he's not a Communist. He's a woke slut for private capital. He's okay with the wealthy increasing their concentration of wealth so as long as corporate entities colour their logo with rainbow colours and fellate black penis. Communists believe in state or worker ownership of capital. Private capital has consolidated their capital within the past 5 years in Canada. Look at the housing bubble.
I'm very well versed in Marxist-Leninism. I've socialized with a lot of Marxist-Leninists. Marxism died with the USSR. The woke shit has nothing to do with Marxism. The far-left in the west may call themselves Marxists but they're not really Marxists. Che Guevara was a known racist and a homophobe. I imagine that was also true for Fidel Castro. Karl Marx would have been cancelled by the modern left. He held a lot of politically incorrect opinions. Fucking Lenin and Stalin would have sent Antifa to the gulag. I literally pointed to a quote by Karl Marx criticizing mass immigration of cheap Irish labour to England in the 19th century and got banned by /leftypol/. I have more knowledge of Karl Marx than self-described Marxists today.
This does not acknowledge the Frankfurt School and the matter of Cultural Marxism at all.
More to the point of the post, this is a man eulogising his father. Change my mind.
I know about the cultural Marxism meme. Karl Marx was not a SJW though. Just because some professors 80 years after Karl Marx died likes bits and pieces of the Communist Manifesto (which was written almost 120 years before Frankfurt School was a thing) doesn't make them a Marxist.
And if we're talking specifically about Cuban Communism, you should see what Che Guevara was saying about black people, indigenous people and homosexuals as recent as the 1960s. Cuba is a Spanish colony. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro were descendants of European colonialists. They didn't "liberate" Cuba from Batista for the benefit of blacks, indigenous people and homosexuals. Fidel Castro was a charismatic intellectual who capitalized on the resentment the white Cuban working class had towards the owners of capital. As white Cubans in Havana resented putting in like 12-16 hour shifts in the factory and white Cubans in the rural areas resented putting in a similar number of hours working at the farm while still being poor. Only for the factory owners and landlords to live fat off their labour.
"Indolent and spends his wealth on frivolities," I believe the line goes.
120 years is a bit of a stretch. Seventy-five is more like it. Regardless, Cultural Marxism is not just a meme. Feminism and every race-driven rights movement are direct descendants of it, and the prevailing orthodoxy amongst academic leftists regarding, as they call it, racial oppression, is derived obviously from its teachings.
Whether someone is an Orthodox Marxist is or not is an argument Marxists have amongst themselves. Everyone else can call the ideas what they are: commie bullshit.
The Communist Manifesto was in 1848. "Cultural Marxism" wasn't really a thing until the 60s. And what we were seeing in the 1960s was nowhere close to where we are at now.
I take it you have never seen Marxist-Leninists ("Orthodox Marxists") argue with Breadtubers ("Cultural Marxists") online before about who are genuine Marxists? Marxist-Leninist don't believe that Breadtube, Chapo Trap House, the Serfs, AOC, Justice Democrats, etc. are real leftists, let alone real Marxists.
The spirit of Marxism is completely dead and it died with the Berlin Wall in 1989. The point of Marxism is public or worker ownership of the means of production. Private corporations drapped in rainbow colours sucking black dick is not Marxism. I respect Karl Marx enough to not want to associate that crazy with him. Even if I disagree with his proposed solutions, a lot of his analysis was spot on. Karl Marx wrote his material back when the working class was working from sun up to sun down and still living in crushing poverty while the owners of capital were living large. Karl Marx had a point about what the fuck was going on in 1848 England. The point of modern leftism is hatred of cishet white males, whiteness, masculinity and destruction of western civilization.
