Kromo.. thank you for confirming my statements above:
As you said: "Postmodernism and poststructuralism predate postmarxism. By several decades. " and I also said this above, pointing out that postmodernism and poststructuralism inspired postmarxism.
Kromo.. "I don't have any problem with your characterisation of modern-day Left wing movements as postmarxist..."
Yes, they have changed haven't they? Race is taking the place of class.
Where we disagree is when you say "...but I think then to make the logical leap that this meant immigration levels over the past 20 years has been 'controlled' somehow is nonsense. Global migration patterns aren't something governments have ever really been able to control - all they've been able to do is react to them."
If you look at immigration and migration graphs the big leap in numbers occurs immediately after 1997. By 2003 the numbers have doubled. See the graph headed Net Migration to and from the UK 1991-2008 at

Couple this with Blair's statement that this was wanted by the UK government and was done for the benefit of the UK and Neather's evidence that it would rub the noses of the right in diversity then we have a prima facie case for a deliberate increase in immigration for ideological purposes. You have already agreed that this ideology is postmarxism and postmarxism is the ideology of using the polarisation due to racial tension as a revolutionary pressure. (The modern analogue of using class differences for this purpose in Marxist ideology).
You may say this is "paranoid" but paranoia is about imaginary changes. Immigration has risen, the government was postmarxist, the new political discourse is about racism/anti racism. It is a strange to use the word "paranoia" to describe not fears but the exposition of real events that have actually happened! Its like saying that a person is paranoid because they believe that the government intercepts mobile phone calls or paranoid because they say the banks are collapsing.
I am against racism, totally against it. My neighbours in Croydon are British, if their children burn their locality it is because of appallingly bad government. It has nothing to do with race; I dont change because I have been on holiday and got a sun tan. My British neighbours in North Croydon were invited here and dropped into a neighbourhood where everyone was new. Yes, everyone is a new resident in a scarcely structured social environment. My son lives in North Croydon and was asked where he was from "I come from round here" he replied, "No, really, where are you from?" He was asked again. And people are surprised that there is a problem and simply condemn their fellow Britons as criminals without questioning what is happening.
