The article is excellent at describing the infection - the virus of cultural Marxism. What it does not do is tell the story of how our cultural immune system was so weakened that this deadly virus could overtake the body politic. The story of how that happened is more complex, but it must be understood because without that understanding, all attempts to create a parallel cultural universe will potentially fall pray to the same immune system disorder.

The simple story is that the following things happened: (1) Our Judeo-Christian heritage was weakened by the Enlightenment and the Scientific Revolution, (2) The robust cultural confidence of the West was destroyed by the two world wars, (3) Affluence and technology became the new gods that the culture worshiped.

Cultural Marxism would not have had a chance had it not been for these three things. The answer: a return to the roots of our Western culture and a rejection of all the false gods.
