In a strong warning, NYU professor Michael Rectenwald said that western civilization is under siege from Maoist totalitarians in a Facebook post, adding that we are on the verge of “completely losing our culture”.
Rectenwald summarizes the threat facing the west in his most direct and concise Facebook post: “We’re undergoing a Maoist-like Cultural Revolution — with the power of the corporate mass media, corporate social media, the academy, most of corporate America, the deep state, the shadow government, and most of the legal apparatuses behind it,” the professor added that, “Anti-western, anti-individual, anti-Christian, anti-liberty monsters are ravaging our cultural legacies as well as our contemporary arts and letters.”

He warned: “Our entire culture is under siege and undergoing an utter and relentless social justice dismantling,” continuing, “Leftist totalitarianism is running amok. We’re on the precipice of completely losing our culture, the benefits of western civilisation, and the entire legacy of western civilisational history.”
Declaring in the end of the post, “A major resurgence and counter attack is necessary and soon.”
Rectenwald has had consequences for his views in the past. He joins many classical liberals having became disenfranchised with the left once they abandoned true liberal principles of free speech, rigorous debate, intellectual curiosity and true diversity of opinion.
He has also posted in response to coming under attack for his post, not weakening his stance in the slightest, stating, “How dare the left have pretensions of moral superiority. Leftists in power have mass-murdered and imprisoned more people than any other contingent in political history. Don’t come around here acting morally superior to me or anyone else, you monsters.”
