Description: Today we're joined by Chris Rufo, journalist and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, to discuss where radical leftist ideologies came from and what people and groups are responsible for their infiltration of our institutions. We look at the history of Marxist ideas in America, where they stemmed from, and what the impetus was to bring them to different institutions. Many of the CRT ideas we see today actually are a repetition of radical ideas from the 1960s, which also resulted in violence and anarchy, and today's pushes toward these ideas are part of a 50-year plan. But why did academia accept these ideas about reshaping society when other institutions took much longer to? We discuss some things over the past 50 years that have accelerated the infiltration of these ideas from the street to academia and then to other institutions, which include using corporations and moral manipulation. We also cover why it's so easy for people to stay in a state of denial and compliance rather than standing up against leftist ideology and explain how we can become confident to oppose Marxism.
