Sorry. To be more specific it killed: 1. Marxist terminology and the notion of class war ("proles" and "bourgeoise" are now anachronistic) 2.

China's adoption of it put the final nail in that coffin. The more generalised Marxist theory of dividing the world into oppressors/the oppressed lives on and is seeing a resurgence. With that I agree.
