Denying the Continental-Philosophy / Literary-Theoretic Roots of Political Correctness / Woketarianism // Trying to Link Analytic Philosophy to McCarthyism

I don't have any links for this right now, and I'm too lazy to dig them up. But I've seen two or three tweets recently that...and this is really weird...deny that the contemporary radical left has any roots in recent (postpostmodern or whatever the hell we might call it) Continental philosophy and "theory" (i.e. literary theory).

   Now...the link is, so far as I can tell, virtually undeniable. There's a well-known link between recent Continental philosophy and leftist politics. Gutting (I think) writes somewhere that the two have basically been inseparable since Sartre. There's no doubt that Marx looms large--gigantic--in both traditions. The pomo PC / Woketarian left's ceaseless, knee-jerk accusations of bigotry--with racism!, of course, being their current fave--seems pretty damn likely to derive from "the hermeneutics of suspicion...though I could be wrong about this. The incoherent morass of relativism, skepticism and nihilism seems prominent in both traditions--though the fashionable term now is "socially constructed"...a catastrophically terrible idea and term that has replaced 'relative', probably because it sounds kinda sciencey... Foucault's obsession with sex and power seems obviously to have influenced contemporary leftists--even if most can't say anything more about it than some incoherent nonsense like "everything is power!".  There's simply no doubt that recent Continental philosophy has been a massively important influence on contemporary left-of-liberal feminism--which is, basically, what feminism is now. And feminism spawned gender madness. Queer theory is undeniably a creature of Continental philosophy, and it has been a major influence on gender ideology and the left. Critical theory is a major component of Continental philosophy, and CRT is now the flagship philosophical theory of the left.

   The influence is so damn clear--especially clear to you if you lived through the paleo-PC era--that it just seems downright bizarre to deny it. 

   Hence the question naturally arises: what the heck is up?

   Is it a coincidence that there also seems to be some weird push afoot to link analytic philosophy to the extreme right--e.g. McCarthyism?

   I mean, analytic has always seemed reactionary to the Continentals...even though analytic philosophers lean strongly leftward themselves. Not--in the past, anyway--radically leftward like the Continentals...but strongly left. 

   I'd understand this if analytic philosophers had been standing up in any significant way against the wokification of the academy and the culture--but they have not been. They've rolled right over even on matters--like the definition of 'woman' and social constructionism--about which they ought to have expertise that runs anti-woketarian. 

   We have to hypothesize that something is up.

   Like all hypotheses, it might not pan out--but the facts cry out for an explanation.

   To be clear, I'm not an analytic philosopher "in the narrow sense" anymore--though I was raised in grad school to be sympathetic with it "in the broad sense"... But I try not to be tribal about such questions--obviously... Still, bias can creep in all over the place, for the weirdest reasons...
