BY WHAT STANDARD (Review)

 Written by multiple authors, some better than others, very Baptist-centric but that's OK because it is still a good resource for understanding the times (1 Chron. 12:32; Matt. 16:3). 

Though it covers a whole lot more, perhaps the book may summarized in general by the following couple of quotes that jumped out at me:

"[In] Cultural Marxism ... The working class has been replaced by minorities. Majority groups are defined as "privileged" and "oppressive." Minority groups are defined as "underprivileged' and "oppressed." p. 12.  

"...Cultural Marxism ... reduces everything to race, class, and sex. Cultural Marxism divides people up slightly differently than Classical Marxism. Classical Marxism divides people up into the bourgeoisie and proletariat, the haves and the have nots - between those who control the means of production and those who do not. In Cultural Marxism, you divide the world between those who establish and benefit from the cultural hegemony and everyone else. Those who do not benefit from the cultural hegemony are oppressed by it. For one reason or other, they are not part of the dominant group. Ethnic Gnosticism is rooted in this Cultural Marxist paradigm." p. 106.
