      Apparently it can refer to some legitimate theorists, like the Frankfurt School, but in this context and 95% of the time it's simply used by chuds (such as Jordan Peterson) as a boogeyman term to encapsulate everything vaguely left-wing that they dislike. It functions a lot like "Cultural Marxism" in that respect.

        It's actually "Judeo Bolshevism" they just had to change the words because being anti-semitic isn't cool any more.

        That's why it's such an inscrutable term because it's just trying really hard to say "jews run the world" without using those words. Hence the focus on Soros, but not other billionaires.

      Have you ever been cancelled by a mob of critical race theorists for trying to re-establish the natural order by putting live lobsters in trans students' dorm rooms? You've been a victim of neo-Marxism.

          Just read 12 Rules for Lobsters by Jordan Petersburg. It contains everything you need to know about the neo-Marxist threat and makes a compelling case for fascism natural hierarchy.

    Destruction of ethnic groups sounds more like fascism to me.

    The notion that Marxists want to destroy Jews is a new one to me. I thought fascists like to conflate communists and Jews, e.g. "Judeo-Bolshevism".

      Also East Asians considering the largest East Asian country is literally Communist. Sometimes I wonder if they actually believe this shit

      Sorry to report Marx unironically did have some troubling antisemetic takes. They never got baked into any of his best works, like Capital, but I'm reading some of his young-hegelian era shit and shortly thereafter I believe he goes on at some length re: the jewish question

      Tldr Marx is cancelled

        Someone once told me that Marx's antisemitism was misconstrued, and that he was actually debunking antisemitism. Is there any truth to that?

          What you're thinking of is the thing he wrote titled, "On The Jewish Question" which sounds really bad out of context. It's titled that because he was responding to (and disagreeing with), another thing titled, "The Jewish Question"

          As far as other possibly anti-semitic stuff he may have been involved in throughout his life, I have no idea.

            He was indeed disgareeing with and responding to worse and largely right wing takes in that essay. Still, I'm afraid the way he's being summarized here is revisionist if you read what he actually wrote. I found it in the Marx Engels Reader ("on the jewish question," as correctly pointed out above). It's very mild antisemtism, especially contrasted against the right wing takes he was responding to, but it's still there.

      Uh huh, but this is the Top Definition.

      J/k; I know what Urban Dictionary is. I looked up globalist was because it's a term that can mean different things to different people, and I was curious which definition was predominant on the internet (and how antisemitic it would be).

      Edit: Basically I wanted to put a dipstick into the cabeza of the lumpenproletariat.

    Israel good, Marx bad. Ergo, Marxists hate Jews. And want to flood Middle Eastern immigrants into Israel to get rid of the ... uh... (recently) native Jews there. The most devious immigrants are those who time travel to get there before you do.

    I never know whether these people are willfully ignorant or just lying.
