The American Cultural Revolution is a movement that looks like it has come from nowhere, but it began in academia, where it has been fomenting for some time. A professor in Seattle was already subjected, over the course of six months, to struggle sessions by students and a formal investigation into his public opinions on a ballot initiative. The managers and institutions that have crafted the new cultural orthodoxy are currently in such a state of ascendance (backed as they are by capital) that they feel no need to hide their ambitions. Nikole Hannah Jones recently admitted that her Pulitzer-winning New York Times’s 1619 Project is not factual history, but rather always intended to be propaganda. If one cares about the integrity of history this is a travesty, but if one’s goal is creating a movement to chasten the educated middle class and reinstall a class of elite patrons, then this is fine.

The upcoming presidential election offers no off-ramp here: Trump does not have a policy agenda so much as a series of instincts, most of which are directed toward his own self-aggrandizement. Biden on the other hand, in his current state of cognitive decline, will merely be the face worn by the forces of capital within the now-unambiguous party of the rich, the Democratic Party.

As in China, once this union of elites and the upward-looking managerial class wins the cultural revolution, its dogmas will become enshrined in the functioning of the state. Capital could hardly ask for a more fitting ideology for working class exploitation than the woke/BLM theory that has been developing for the past decade: that society is just and good so long as people are materially deprived at racially equivalent rates. As such, the new cultural revolution is not about the dismantling of social power relations, but rather about their renewal.
