The Highway Forums General Discussion Open Forum Marxism

I have been doing a fair amount of research into
Marxism and Cultural Marxism.
Which are philosophies built around the ideas of Karl Marx concerning economics, and later the Frankfurt Institute concerning Cultural Marxism.
What I think I am noticing, is that Russia which I thought
was supposed to be the model for these philosophies appears to
be less Cultural Marxist than North America is moving
towards.
For example, North America’s slide into embracing things
like LBGQT+ as well as CRT, is something that I am not seeing
in Russia. In fact Vladimir Putin seems to be very much
against these things.
Does anyone have any knowledge of this matter?
