>I think the lgbbq movement was a cultural Marxist conspiracy against the institution of the family unit

If this isn't sarcasm/irony, what's your evidence for this conspiracy?

(Edit: Why is this comment downvoted? Is it frowned upon to ask for evidence for a conspiracy theory?)

Strong priors and a good listen to Yuri Bezmenov.

Fully understand that priors != evidence. Which is why I'll state it's my belief, not ground truth.

What exactly are the priors for the idea that there is a group of people you call "cultural Marxists", who have done this, and further that they have done it?

The standard version of the "cultural Marxism" conspiracy theory states that the Frankfurt School, a group of European intellectuals, hatched a plot to bring down Western civilisation. If you believe this is the case, I have two questions:

- What works of the Frankfurt School have you read, and which do you think are congruent with what you are accusing them of?

- Do you engage in the anti-semitic element of the conspiracy theory?

If you think this is not the case, then tell me who exactly "cultural Marxists" are, their origins, and what basis you have for your accusations. These are very basic questions which you should not have to reference another book to answer, though you can of course provide a reference to one as part of your answer.

Let's have a struggle session and find out?
One more reply before I head off for the night:

>Do you engage in the anti-semitic element of the conspiracy theory?

>Oh, you don't toe the PC line? You must be a rayciswhitemale.

You're self-parodic at this point.

>Oh, you don't toe the PC line? You must be a rayciswhitemale.

Apparently not being an anti-semite is being "PC"?
