OK, that's not Marxism tho. That was about economics. Marxists were universalists and also believed in objective truth and science.

Whether we want to call it "marxist", is whether we want the term to mean the ideological dialectics of oppressor vs oppressed?

Lets not. That would just be confusing. Slavery abolitionists would then be Marxists.

The problem is that they are seeking to cast demographics itself as a supremacist system of oppression. Majority as "privilege", minority as oppression. To cast familiarity, norms, perception as bias, stereotyping, discrimination.

No, economics come last because it complicates gender and racial identity. You don't get much sympathy for being a poor white man.

That is coincidental to the current intersectional epoch. Reflecting one of the great social phobias/taboos, of being associated with xenophobia, especially racism. These demographics currently take precedence over economics.

Not to draw a false parrallel, but I think where you don't want the SJWs to have Marxism, I don't want them to have philosophy "pomo"

I don't like Marxism either! But I'll concede some connections and also that PoMo is much more than this and some of it is quite good.
