Five teen girls want to join the Boy Scouts. Transsexuals want to serve openly in the military. Boys in dresses want to pee in the girl’s room. Men are now marrying each other. Those who oppose any of these are called haters and bigots.
According to former Breitbart editor Michael Walsh, all of this goes by a common name, cultural Marxism, the subject of his new book The Devil’s Pleasure Palace.
Walsh talked exclusively to Breitbart News about the five girls who want to join the Boy Scouts and how cultural Marxism is part of it.
“The annihilation of sex distinctions in the name of ‘equality’ or ‘fairness’ is the logical outgrown of the anti-Western and anti-Christian policies advocated by members of the Frankfurt School and its acolytes and heirs.”
Walsh, who is a novelist and screenwriter, says it is difficult for the common man to object to these new and even revolutionary ideas because “The culturally Marxist notions of ‘tolerance’ and ‘fairness’ have been drilled into American heads since the end of World War II and in particular since the late 1960s.”
“In their wake came a whole host of relativistic ills, including the notion that men and women were essentially biologically the same, and that therefore there was no meaningful distinction between them. The young girls who want to become Boy Scouts are reaping what their parents have sown, and think they are doing the Lord’s work in the process.”
Walsh points to Herbert Marcuse, one of the Frankfurt School, who was deeply influential on college campuses in the 1960s. Marcuse advocated what he called “repressive tolerance” regarding tradition. He advocated “the withdrawal of toleration of speech and assembly from groups and movements which promote aggressive policies, armament, chauvinism, discrimination on the grounds of race and religion…”
Walsh tells Breitbart News that the shaming of certain kinds of speech is precisely what happens to those who oppose girls joining the Boy Scouts, boys peeing in the girl’s bathroom, gays in the military, and much else.
Are they cultural Marxists, those five girls who want to join the Boy Scouts? Walsh would say not consciously so, but it is the air the girls have breathed.
