There’s a lot of confusion as to what Marxism actually is. It’s not a form of goverment it’s a theory of history (history can be seen in terms of class struggle). As such, the term ‘Cultural Marxism’ doesn’t make much sense.

As such, the term ‘Cultural Marxism’ doesn’t make much sense. I would disagree, because we need to understand that Marxism isn't just a theory of history, it's a deterministic theory of history, indeed, it almost has a millenarian flavour to it - Marxists believe they are going to bring about the "End of History", and for our modern day lefties, this is going to be obtained by means of cultural subversion of the reigning bourgeious social order. As such, "cultural marxism" strikes me as an eminently accessible term.
There’s a lot of confusion as to what Marxism actually is.Marxism is a worldview. Actually, it is a subsection under the worldview called Secular Humanism.
The answer to the four basic questions all humans ask will be the outline for the worldview; worldview being the basic assumptions of life that all information is filtered through before digestion.
The four questions are:
Who am I?
Why am I here?
What's wrong with the world?
How can what's wrong with the world be made right.
Christianity would be a worldview that answers those questions from a Theistic assumption.
Secular Humanism, and all of its subgroups, would answer it from an Anti-Theistic assumption.
The worldview will be guided by its views in five catagories. They are:
1) View of God
2) View of man
3) View of truth
4) View of knowledge
5) View of ethics
