It\u2019s unclear how many Christians are going along with the current neo-Marxist collective guilt movement out of fear, a misunderstanding of what they\u2019ve signed onto, or an authentic conversion to the cause. What is clear, however, is that you can\u2019t be a Christian and a Marxist at the same time\u2014not without irresolvable contradictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whereas traditional garden-variety Marxism views history as a struggle between the wealthy and the working class \u201cproletariat,\u201d neo-Marxism cranks up the heat and redefines the fight to incorporate biological sex, race, ethnicity, and a whole gambit of various \u201cidentity\u201d badges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grand unifying principle for the Marxists behind the Black Lives Matter movement is that everything\u2014and they mean everything<\/em>\u2014can be reduced to \u201coppressors\u201d versus the \u201coppressed\u201d [e.g., “Critical Race Theory”]. If you happen to be a member of one of the \u201coppressor\u201d groups, then expect to see all sorts of punishments heading your way until the neo-Marxists are satisfied. Except they never are.
