They're dead? Ok, all joking aside: Of course -- Frankfurt School and Critical Theory were heavily (German) Jewish, historically, and had to flee the country prior to the war breaking out. At a time when it's aims were entirely different, mind you, too. Now it's taken over all of academia, we know the results, and the aims are very deliberate (none of which was the case at its inception). The academics in this arena today are more your Kimberlè Crenshaws, Judith Butler's, Robin DiAngelo's, Hardt and Negri's, though. There's nothing about Critical Theory today that's inherently Jewish, other than it's historical origins, and the ones that did the most damage with it were all 2nd or 3rd generation, tend to be women, and were working in post-modernism, feminism and critical race theory.

edit -- oh, just realized this is an entirely different thread and comment than the one I thought you were responding to. I wrote a comment elsewhere about how I was the only Jew in my program (which is all founded on Critical Theory), and there's no Jewish professors or students, yet I'm the only one that's aggressively against it, and push back against all the nonsense
