You what now?!

Two frankly staggering claims from luikkerland over at the Orphans of Liberty:
I think that it is becoming generally understood as a fact rather than a conspiracy theory that in the 20th century a plot was hatched to bring about Marxist revolution in Judeo-Christian countries where the people had an interest in the hegemony, and the social classes had shared values. It is becoming – dare I say – mainstream to understand that something that we now know as Political Correctness (PC) was conceived in the minds of power-lustful Marxist thinkers to create the social groundwork for revolution. It is becoming common knowledge that the Gramsci/Lukacs evil bag of tricks was seized on by Progressives looking to implement the cultural element of the Marxist takeover of Britain (the collection around the state had already been embraced by a misguided population battered and altered by two world wars).
Regardless of whether there has ever been such a conspiracy or not, I really don't think that it is "becoming generally understood as fact". I reckon if you go up to most people and talk about this sort of thing then they will give you a tinfoil hat and then cross the road to get away from you.
Of all the printed press, the Daily Mail is in the vanguard of Progressive perception-shaping and conditioning, and so requires the most counter-attacking
While I'm all for attacking the Mail, the claim that it is "progressive" in any way, shape of form is frankly laughable. I haven't heard (well, read) anything quite so laughable in weeks!

I'm glad those two ridiculous claims by Luikkerland have been challenged. When people write such crazy nonsense, one has to assume they converse more with obsessed ideologs than with normal people.

I wouldn't have used the word lustful and would dispute if it's becoming generally known but yes, the rest of it is true. That's how PC began.

As you know, James, I don't agree with you on this conspiracy theory, but we definitely agree on the fact that is not widely known.
