Are the woke just a bunch of Marxists?

No, but that claim isn’t based on nothing. The Theory behind wokeness is complicated, but some of its key concepts are inherited from Marx, in modified form. And it becomes much easier to understand Theory if you understand something about Marx — which few people do, because Marx doesn't make it easy.

In this fourth chapter of The Liberal Backbone, I explain two key Marxist concepts I plain language: structural oppression, and how a structure of ideas can make oppression seem normal.

Marx was sure he'd discovered an infallible "science" of history. But in practice, it went terribly wrong. The effort to explain why would lead, via many branching paths, to Theory.
