Make links if you want. Linguistics. Oppressed classes. False consciousness. Revolutionary zeal. That can be an interesting academic project. But if you want to address the SocJus activism problem, you'll need to understand SocJus scholarship which calls on postmodernism.
Except for the oppressed/opresor binarism that does ‘t come from any of the frameworks that you mentioned. That seems to come from Marxism, or. As you pointed out before from older ancestors of Marxism. But you list is incomplete without a source for that.
Defining Marxism as simply oppressed vs oppressor ignores the social economic basis of the groups in conflict/the tensions existing between classes. The Haitian revolution for example had little to do with Marxism.
I’m convinced now that it isn’t Marxism. The issue is that so many Marxist profs buy into PoMo and critical studies, and use O/O arguments. It’s easy to conflate the two. Critical studies is a good name for a group of disciplines. But we need a name for the cocktail of theories.
Not only is it not Marxism. It's epistemologically anti-Marxist, and many on the socialist Left think it was encouraged by capital to replace Marxism in the academy, where it lets people think they're still radical while they've totally abandoned class struggle.
