Hmmm. More on France's "Summer of Love."
US State Department-Trained French Activist/Arsonist Pouring Fuel on the Fire
"Critical Theory" started in Europe after World War One with the Frankfurt School in Germany.
Wanting to distinguish critical theory as a radical, emancipatory form of Marxist philosophy, Horkheimer critiqued both the model of science put forward by logical positivism, and what he and his colleagues saw as the covert positivism and authoritarianism of orthodox Marxism and Communism. He described a theory as critical insofar as it seeks "to liberate human beings from the circumstances that enslave them".
Intellectuals of the World Unite! You've nothing to lose but your mental chains -- and maybe your mind.
When the National Socialists took power, several prominent figures fled to North America and helped the theory take root in Major American Universities. After World War II, some French thinkers contributed their thinking (or what passes for such) to the movement. Some simple slogans in English made it to US campuses in the 60s. After a massive investment in "Higher Education," we got Critical Race Theory and expensive, preachy Hollywood Movies -- not to mention riots and rotting inner cities.
So that particular flaming bag of poop has landed on France's doorstep. It's like "return to sender."
As for the US State Department, it is chock-full of the sort of people "Europe" tells us to listen to. If it is any consolation, they also want to subvert the US, not just France.
