You're free to show otherwise. We're waiting.

Thank you for showing your continued illiteracy and conflation of two different terms. I'm sorry that a lazy Google search is the sole basis of what you think your argument is.

Anyway, the definition is the same one I posted for you in that topic when you made these ignorant posts originally. This doesn't use that explicit phrase, but this was what I meant:

The Marxist left has always dismissed liberalisms commitment to protecting the rights of its political opponents you know, the old line often misattributed to Voltaire, I disapprove of what you have to say, but Ill defend to the death your right to say it as hopelessly nave. If you maintain equal political rights for the oppressive capitalists and their proletarian victims, this will simply keep in place societys unequal power relations. Why respect the rights of the class whose power youre trying to smash? And so, according to Marxist thinking, your political rights depend entirely on what class you belong to. The modern far left has borrowed the Marxist critique of liberalism and substituted race and gender identities for economic ones.

This should have been fairly obvious since the topic was about SJWs, and your cultural Marxism definition made no sense in that context. I do recall you having a meltdown and derailing that topic with this same nonsense then when I pointed this out.

I stopped being a liberal when I saw them throw their own under the bus for asking too hard a question four years ago. I thought democrats were supposed to be progressive, good, not backwards like conservatives. I thought asking questions were not only a foundation of being a good democrat but a bedrock of western civilization.

You'd make a better point if you stated what was asked instead of dancing around the point

When some people were wondering if there was any collusion between a game dev and a journalist reporting on the dev's game, and subsequently gaming publications online started a slander campaign against gamers.

I'm not defending the shit people said about the dev, but I am defending their questioning of collusion. If there wasn't, you don't go about slandering an entire base simply because people asked whether or not a dev was in bed with a journalist.

I have a friend that got really ticked off by that whole controversy and still is to this day. He still sticks to his convictions though and hasn't stopped being very left of center. I guess he wasn't secretly a centrist like you.

There is absolutely no definition of social marxism here at all. It's not even mentioned. "My" definition is correct because it's the only definition that exist and you can't show otherwise.

Topic was about Christians btw, not "SJWs".

Isn't "social marxism" just regular marxism?

You can't just make up your own terms. Are you a SJW or something?

Social Marxism is Marxist thinking applied to identity politics rather than economic class. Has nothing to do with cultural Marxism, which is a conspiracy theory about Jewish Communists taking over institutions.

You're posting definitions of cultural Marxism. Not sure how many times we need to go over this.

1) It's been explained to you repeatedly
2) Your definition makes zero sense in the context of the original discussion
3) It's completely inconsistent with my pro-Israel views, which are fairly well known here

The lengths some of you losers will go to just to justify branding someone who upsets you a Nazi...

There are people literally getting upset because Nazis and KKK are gunned down in Wolfenstein and because there's a redneck Christian cult in Far Cry 5. So of course they'd also get upset when a white supremacist teacher gets fired.

If these people don't identify with this shit then I have no idea why they get so defensive over them.

Because it's the same thing as social Marxism.

What we're all waiting on is any kind of definition that says otherwise. You won't post it for some strange reason.

So gamer gate was enough to say fuck all liberals (when it was mostly SJWs who were apart of it) and switch to a side that spent decades arguing that video games were the cause of mass shootings and shit?

I mean... really...

The reaction shouldn't have been to demean a swath of people that included those that weren't even involved with the worst perpetrators. Had they ignored it that would have been one thing, but they didn't. That was the watershed moment that introduced me to the worst elements of liberals. I mean, it really was like opening my eyes to how bad unchecked liberalism can be.

No, I'm not a liberal anymore. But I wouldn't strictly call myself a republican either. I just want to be able to ask questions, even hard and unpleasant ones, and not be thrown under the bus for it.
