I'm fairly cognitive. That's how I can spot someone trying to fake their way through an argument. Marxism is an economic philosophy. There is not one theory but the central tenet seems to be that capitalism is flawed. It is, or we wouldn't have to regulate it or bail it out every few years.
Getting rid of statues of oppressors, and reeling in the police state is what emerging and solid democracies do. It's usually the first thing people do when they are freed from an oppressive government.

Marxism: the political, economic, and social principles and policies advocated by Marx especially : a theory and practice of socialism (see socialism sense 3) including the labor theory of value, dialectical materialism, the class struggle, and dictatorship of the proletariat until the establishment of a classless society
The primacy real world tenant of Marxism is put everyone under the control of a government that the Marxist/Communist/ Socialists/ Democrat Socialists/Fascists control.
The way they achieve that is to exploit history or culture to pit small 'minority' groups against each other keeping all in a constant state of fear and chaos. As these 'minority' groups are fearful the Marxist use violence to overload the system. Then the Marxist start making speeches and gin up a Propaganda push, often with the help of the media, to say "Look the government can't protect you and your history/policies are bad." And, "We can make everyone equal and give you all you need." They usually have the teachers on board, but they will all end up in a pit covered in lye after the Marxist take control.
To gain power they always push cultural slights or rifts between minority groups.
They always try to erase common history, so does Isis.
They will attack culture exploiting pain points to foment mistrust and violence.
They will always promise a new better history of 'equality' and on and on
They will always need a monster- the rich, the Jews, the Chinese, royalty, the Whites.
They always attack and marginalize religion.
They always seek gun control.
They always use unions and control education.
They are almost always propagated in 'liberal' universities and quasi "intellectual' are always the easiest used. And then are always first shot once Marxist are in power.
Sound familiar, It should. It is the actions and talking points of the Democrat party and their orbiting groups and NGOs.
