As long as you're not the wrong sort of people, you don't have anything to worry about. :dance:
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Communists help spread atheism whatever their other faults. We should not condemn them entirely, the meme might flare up again and consider how bright it was, how quickly it took off in 1917, helped by the gun? could be dormant rather than dead, laying low, waiting for a US empire collapse? - even today a very large percnetage of Russians are still atheist decades after the braincleaning work ended. :spock:

Fascism perhaps, not sure about "cultural" fascism. "Cultural" Marxism is the polar opposite of "cultural" fascism? Sounds reasonable, except, perhaps, for the all encompassing culture part.
Our struggle is not against actual corrupt individuals, but against those in power in general, against their authority, against the global order and the ideological mystification which sustains it.

Why would anyone deny being a Marxist? You're living in a fantasy land seth.

I've no idea, there are quite open and electable socialist and marxist parties around the world

Sure there are some. Of course, in the west, there aren't many, but that has more to do with the political system than anything else. The system is set up to only have one electable party, a liberal capitalist "democratic" party.

Many people, in fact most people who are Marxists deny being Marxists while adhering to Marxist ideology because they know full well that the cachet of Marxism has been fatally tarnished by the egregious evils of Marxists ever since Marx came on the scene. By denying they are Marxists while clinging to the ideology, they try to gain plausible deniability and separation from the evils of Stalin, Mao and a host of other Marxist demagogues, tyrants and genocidal murderers who have killed 100 million or more people in the name of Marxist ideology.

Like Progressives, Marxists are cowardly cockroaches who scurry under a rock when the light is shined on their evil and misdeeds and their delusional, tyrannical pretensions. They change their names and disavow Marxism, but they lie through their teeth and uphold the ideals, practices and ideology of Marxism all the while they are denying that's what they are doing. It's all part of the Marxist Big Lie. It's a common tactic of Marxists, who tell and retell a lie in hopes that it will become perceived truth through repetition.

But Marxists are easy to detect based on their rhetoric and their tendency to evade critical scrutiny of their ideology using deflections like personal attacks and statements like "you're living in a fantasy land..." The intent is to marginalize using ridicule as a way to evade actually defending the ideology, which is beyond the tiny, narrow minds of cultural Marxists and most self-avowed Marxists as well, who are universally ignorant of their own ideology and know only the propaganda they've been spoon-fed by their intellectual betters, the true Marxist intelligentsia, and thus they are unable to rationally defend their ideology and must scurry about flinging feces at the window to try to deflect criticism.

Strangely, that's exactly what you are doing now. Are you a cultural Marxist by any chance?

Strange then how it is that one of the first things to be restored after the fall of Communism were the Orthodox Catholic churches. Oh, and capitalism.
