Glad you asked ...
It started in 1939 with the Frankfort School migration to the US. They attached to Columbia first. Marcuse signed on with OSS (CIA) for the duration of the war, then took off for the UC system and Brandeis.
1955, Marcuse, acknowledged Father of Cultural Marxism, published "Eros and Civilization".
In 1917 Russia, the D&C stratagem was used in the bourgeoisie v proletariat divide.
No race.
1966, Zedong's Proletariat Revolution.
Used D&C stratagem.
No race.
Laos, Cambodia, Cuba, and so on...
Marcuse's "Eros and Civilization" led to '60s bra burning and '70s battle of the sexes.
Division of the sexes.
No race.
It's the same DIVIDE & CONQUER stratagem of war, irrespective of combatants!

Define Your Terms:
Communism is a •stateless
•classless
society wherein the
•workers own the means of production and distribution.
As any socialist will tell you (every time another socialist experiment fails) it has never been tried:
..because citizens don't willingly give up their sovereignty
..because there will never a society without a phat elitist political class
..because The State will never pass out the keys to the means of (money) production to the peasants
..because Communism is an ideological umbrella for 2 differing socio-economic models.
Socialism is a socio-economic system where the State owns the means of production and distribution
Democrats began using the term Progressive in the 1920s to signify they adhered to the socio-economics of Mussolini's fascist Italy.
They kept that name, progressive, until Benny invaded Ethiopia the 2nd time; new name: Liberal... so they were no longer publicly associated with fascism.
1920s
Republicans, became Conservatives.
Conserving what?
LIBERALISM!
1930s new name, RINO, not chosen but given
2015
HRC: I'm not a Liberal, I'm an old fashioned Progressive.
☝️ Maybe the only honest thing she has ever said!
Today:
Corporate:
"united or combined into one body; collective."
• Corporatism:
aka
•corporate statism
•mixed economy
•state corporatism
•crony capitalism
•public-private partnership
•state capitalism
•mixed economy
•syndicalism
•corporativism
•social democracy
•stakeholder capitalism
is a socio-economic system that seeks
•social justice and
•equity among individuals...
Capitalism is an Individualist society while Corporatism is a collectivist society closely related to fascism.
☝️12 euphemisms for...
Fascism is a socio-economic system, ideologically based on a relationship between business and the centralized govt.
Business-and-govt control of
•the market place,
•repression of criticism/opposition,
•exalting the state above individual rights.
Mussolini used both terms interchangably
• 21st c "Liberals" are NOT Liberals, they are Progressives... a euphemism for Fascists
And Conservatives forgot what the hell they were conserving!
Conflating Euro Liberalism and American Liberalism leads to a misread.
Eur threw off monarchies to champion the Collective; America threw off the monarchy to champion the Individual.
LIBERALISM is:
• Cogito Ergo Sum
(Individualism)
• Civil Rights
• a market economy

I completely agree with your uniparty; however, on CM I take a more historical perspective. As I said to the troll in another thread:
In America, it started in 1939 with the Frankfort School migration to the US. They attached to Columbia first. Marcuse signed on with OSS (CIA) for the duration of the war, then took off for the UC system and Brandeis.
