Marxism is about having the means of production be in the control of the workers instead of company owners/executived. From my understanding, what this would look like is company decisions being made by the employees voting on the decision or voting for a person who makes that decision.
At no point does the article mention anything about the law schools wanting this.
The only ties to Marxism they specify is that CRT was created by a marxist. CRT, however, does not call for workers to own companies. It also doesn't help workers to own companies. Therefore, I do not consider it Marxist. Who created it doesn't matter, what it does matters.
If a marxist created a car, it is not marxist. If a monarchist created a car, it is not monarchist. If a libertarian creates a way for governments to spy on citizens, it's authoritarian. The creator's ideology doesn't matter, what the creation does is what matters to me.
You need to educate yourself on cultural Marxism and the Frankfurt School. Marxism is much broader than you suggest.
I tried to find articles on Cultural Marxism which backed their claims with evidence, but could only find evidence backed articles for critiques of cultural marxism theory like this one.
Can you send me articles about cultural marxism that link evidence for the claims they make?
Here is Marcuse, a famous cultural Marxist himself, talking about his generation reifying Marxism and bringing it into a modern context.
Decent Gottfried article on the topic.
