For example, the BLM lady who has bought four houses since her Racial Reckoning windfall last year is not against property: she just wants you to have less of it and her to have more of it.

I mean it's not a revolution as such it's a leftist movement to chase rents, subsidies & transfer payments, esp for black petty bourgeoisie. "White supremacy" as omnipresent wrong to be remedied becomes a totalising legitimation narrative for these freaks to abuse power & get $$$

Sure, that's how it's playing out in practice. But the origins of the academic theory are explicitly Marxist (Marcuse, Freire, Angela Davis, etc.). DEI is just the farcical expression of it.

There are two separate things going on on the Left at present: the growth of Woke anti-white racism vs. the growth of Bernie Sanders-style non-racial class-based socialism. Calling the former Wokeism "Marxist" distracts from its dominant feature: its racist hatred of whites.

Moreover, referring to Wokeism as "Marxist" distracts from how much it is in bed with Woke Capital.

The capitalist oligarchs are progressives. We're witnessing a kind of spiral dynamic between two factions of the utopian left. One is technocratic and wants to use data intensive surveillance "for our own good". The other is a religious-like vanguard of priests & useful idiots.

Woke capital isn't ruthlessly profit maximizing. They're progressive utopians who believe they can buy out and control the woke vanguard using tax & transfer schemes. This is cynical and instrumental, yes. But the oligarchs themselves have their own utopianism, too.

The hatred of whites is essentially Marxist, if you properly abstract the essence of Marxism: The belief that history is a dialectic of inter-group conflict in which the winners have been unjustly enriched by oppressing (zero-sum plundering) the losers.
