"Political Correctness", at it's worst, injects cultural division which
is hardly restricted to Marxism, in fact this article is pretty PC.

It is always a breezy road to bring up Marx outside of a historical
economic context and plop his ideology down as if sprung full grown from
basically nowhere.

Marx was and is used as a tool to counter this:

The 'this' here is what was known as the Labor Movement, you know, like
in "Labor Day".

Those who are in perpetual state of fear, worry, hatred and defeatism
(here it happens to be over Political Correctness) should at least see a
bright spot to the modern PC world. It really is very un Marx-like in
it's selectivity. It is restricted to internal social divisions and then
only at a certain social and economic level.

For instance N.O.W. and Anita hill vs N.O.W and the Clinton women.

PC-ness is a good way to make things simple so one can "FEEL". A good
distraction.

Some here can fear, freight, fume and be defeated, as usual, by Cultural
Marxism, the dark hordes and liberal traitors among us, but do not see
the very Politically Correct Silence over what is happening on Wall
Street right now nor the union of deadly corruption between the political
parties. It is not PC to talk about this.

As far as this Mr. Lind goes in his condemnation of the 60's 'radicals'..
He did not serve in Vietnam, it was he who did not have to worry about
any other thing than that of getting a cushy political job.
