    Yup. All of post-Foucauldian academia is literally downstream of a CIA op to suppress Marx and Mao in academia even. Phenomenology, hermeneutics, basically all the post-Habermas anything intersubjectve or similar. There are declassified documents at this point. I saw something published by a lefty substacker or similar recently about it, but In blanking on who it was… maybe Chris Hedges? The Hillary 2016 woke strategy to call Bernie and his followers racist/sexist/etcist is just the latest iteration and I LOVE how the neolibs are now trying to lay the “post your pronouns, toxic male!” shit at the feet of the left they summoned it to discredit.

      Last I checked living conditions actually improved in socialist states that USSR supported, while it was the US that ran around overthrowing democratic governments and creating mass poverty. Should learn some history.
