Learn Gramsci’s Ideology - It Is What is Driving Our Kulturkampf

That’s only fractionally true.

It’s truthy, but not the whole truth.

Gramsci, like other materialists, assume a blank slate, or to put it another way, something from nothing.

Culture is an extension of the natural order, and only works well for very long when it coincides with natural law.

My knowledge of Gramsci is limited to what I learned from this video:
Youtube-New Discourses Podcast - Antonio Gramsci
I found it very informative, though, again, not having studied the topic more deeply, this is only one viewpoint.

That being said, this video is consistent with your premise that Gramsci is a-- perhaps the-- driving force of the cultural breakdown in the West.

It's been a while since I've watched it, but from what I remember, a brief summary of the video would be:

1) After suggesting a similar thesis to what you suggest (that Gramsci is the godfather of cultural marxism), it gives some historical context.

2) States how the European Marxists expected workers, etc. to embrace marxist ideology in the early 1900s and were shocked when it was largely rejected.

3) After they failed to gain traction, Gramsci observed that it was difficult for Marxism to succeed if the existing culture and cultural values were too strong, so he began formulating his philosophy of how marxists needed to break down societies they were attempting to take over. A large part of this was attacking religion and family values and finding a core group of marginalized people who were struggling, then constantly pointing out how society was unfair to / failing these people to the point of inciting violence. This multi-prong attack would eventually lead to destabilization and allow for the marxists to take over.

4) Interestingly, China is (if I remember the video correctly) the first place where Gramsci's strategies were forcefully and effectively employed. In China, the Han were the successful, educated people who defined a good bit of China's culture pre-Mao. So, they were targeted with "Han privilege" in exactly the same way whites are now being targeted. The Han were either killed off or otherwise cancelled, along with much of the China's history and culture, which was promptly re-written / re-cast by Mao.

5) Aside from the parallel in China I just spelled out, I don't remember how much the narrator transitions back to what's currently going on. But at this point, it's clear enough how Gramsci is relevant. And I do believe I've heard that Marxists do actively study his ideas.

I thought it an excellent listen, and it seems this guy puts out a lot of other good content based on the title of some of his other videos, but I haven't viewed anything else.

I appreciate you bringing this up as this did have my attention a while back, but slipped to the backburner. I'd welcome any other resources (vidoes, books, or other) on the topic.

That was a good listen.

Lindsay was impressive and I thought he was going to nail the host, Mark Lamont Hill... But I have to admit Mark mostly avoided damage before he ended the segment. That being said, I thought Mark's defense was largely disingenuous, trying to marginalize the central role CRT plays in the current cultural war.
