And it does to some extent in that various ideas have been co-opted by postmodernists. But focus on the postmodernism.
-
BTW, potential confusion re: term 'radical' cos Radical Feminism is a branch which is opposed to the dominant postmodern one.

Wrote a bare bones guide to types of feminism. http://helenpluckroseblogs.blogspot.co.uk/2016/06/a-twitter-users-guide-to-different.html … If not interested, saying extreme rather than radical

Marxism and Postmodernism go hand-in-hand. If there is no such thing as objective reality and the truth itself is merely a matter of one's opinion, then it follows that all of society is just a network of arbitrary power structures that exist for no reason and should be torn down
-
But it's postmodernism that disbelieves in objective reality, not Marxism. And they don't claim power structures to be arbitrary but formed by oppressive ideologies rooted in discourse.
