@taglaterritruthtella9818 This movement in the west, it's sad to say, was helped to spread by certain protestant religious groups, especially those tied to labor unions, which explains why the adherents seem to act as if they are in a cult. It's as if they are always on a crusade. In DC, it has roots at C Street.
From the days of the great terror during the French Revolution, we have witnessed their violence and genocide. Their want has always been world rule.
There was a split within them after Lenin died, between Trotsky and Stalin. Trotsky was exiled, where he ended up in Mexico. Dewey left NYC, and traveled there to meet Trotsky, to prove his innocence of what Stalin had accused him of. Trotsky was just as guilty as Stalin.
It was Dewey that invited the Frankfurt School professors to teach at three New York colleges, and the graduates became known as the New York Intellectuals. They had the audacity and gall, to claim that they were anti-communists, when in fact, they were only anti-Stalinists, and against what they called "Soviet socialism." They created the neoconservatives, and practically took over the GOP after 1952, after many claimed to leave the left wing, who supported Stalin, for the right. Thus, they had infected both parties. I imagine something very similar occurred inside the UK as well.

@99tubalcain Nowhere, did I state that those Frankfurt professors were from a protestant sect. However, the one major university that accepted them with open arms, Columbia, was tied to the Trinity Church, and the Episcopal Diocese of New York, in Manhattan, as well as what is known as the Anglo-American Establishment. They are affiliated with the Union Theological Seminary. It was Dewey, an "American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer whose ideas have been influential in education and social reform," who brought the professors in. Though Dewey was an atheist, Columbia, with its ties to protestant religion, brought this ideology within its doors.
Dewey was a "well-known public intellectual, he was a major voice of progressive education and liberalism." He also traveled to meet Leon Trotsky.
However, the protestant roots go back to Boston, and with what later became known as the Rand School of Social Science, which is where Trotsky was lecturing before he left to meet up with Lenin.
"The idea of establishing new schools for the promotion of socialist ideas in the United States emerged at the end of the 19th century, when a group of Christian socialists organized as the Social Reform Union established the College of Social Science — a correspondence school — in the city of Boston in 1899. Another similarly short-lived institution called the "Karl Marx School" was established in that same city at around that same time."
During this same time, a similar movement was occurring at Oxford, with Ruskin College.
"Shortly after the establishment of the Socialist Party of America in August 1901 an effort was made to establish an institution called the Workmen's Educational League in New York City. This was soon renamed the Socialist Educational League, but the change of moniker did nothing to aid the school's survival and it, too, soon passed."
"A more serious and official effort at establishing a New York socialist training school came late in 1904, when the City Central Committee of Local Greater New York announced that between the first of the year and May 30, 1905 a socialist school would be established 'especially for the instruction of speakers.'"
"The idea of a permanent socialist school in New York City, which took form as the Rand School of Social Science, began with the Christian socialist minister, Herron, and his mother-in-law and financial patron, the widowed lumber heiress Rand. After marrying Mrs. Rand's daughter in 1901 — regarded as scandalous owing to his divorce and abandonment of his first wife and family — the Herrons moved to New York City, where George became a prominent figure in the fledgling Socialist Party."
In Detroit, a similar thing occurred, with Niebuhr, who "was an American Reformed theologian, ethicist, commentator on politics and public affairs, and professor at Union Theological Seminary for more than 30 years." Niebuhr ended up in New York, where, in "the 1930s, [and during the same time of the Frankfurt School professors], Niebuhr was often seen as an intellectual opponent of John Dewey. Both men were professional polemicists and their ideas often clashed, although they contributed to the same realms of liberal intellectual schools of thought."
First names were removed, so the post will not be deleted.

@georgehetty7857 LOL, no, but they're nutty enough to make one want to believe that. No, there's two strains on the left, with the atheistic academic side, and the Christian Socialist academic side of communism. Wiki has a very detailed article on the Christian Socialists, and Christian Anarchists, and how they're tied to the Fabian Society. Instead of the hammer and sickle, it's the cross and sickle.
Back before the old Soviet Union, Tolstoy was supposedly a Christian Socialist.
Christianity, though, wasn't the only monotheism that adopted socialism and communism, as some sects in the other two did as well.

@RightTurnClyde There's a reason, which is their use of violence, and their demands that everything must be done as they want, immediately.
It's always the same with this lot, going back to the French Revolution, and then with what occurred in the Southern US with "reconstruction," run by the "radical republicans," who both Lincoln and Johnson were against.
Right now, the southern states are talking about how the federal government is behind a new reconstruction, but its for the entire North American continent, and Europe.
The radials need to remember, that they were booted out once, after they caused all the destruction, hate, and discontent under a corrupt President Grant, and that is coming for them again.
