    Yeah, it is also just a philosophy word. But antisemites use it to refer to “dialectical materialism”, which is a real term for Marxist philosophy, but by which they mean “cultural Marxism”, a thing they made up by which they in turn mean “the Jews are going to impose communism on us through psyops that convince us it is good, so we have to exterminate them.”

    Basically, like much of their coded language, it is a reference to a conspiracy theory.
