The Frankfurt school is just Marxism in discourse. That's why they all went to live in the US and political correctness started there. Instead of heading first against economic power, the Frankfurt school felt more comfortable to head against power as discourse. The US capitalist elites were happy to entertain such useless blabbers who were explaining that what mattered was not class struggle, but just the discourse on class struggle. Hence instead of strikes, and better salary, what matter was how to talk about strikes and salary... No wonder the US liberal elites welcomed those guys who were all talk and no walk.
