Now of course only about 0.1% of those idiots have any clue what on earth the 'Frankfurt School' is supposed to be (me neither, but I also don't talk about it as if I knew), or what the whole 'cultural marxism' thing is supposed to be about. However, if you look past whatever they claim their reasons and explanations are, and just look at the actual usage of the word, it's an alt-right dog-whistle for some vague anti-semitism crossed with a healthy smattering of 'left-wingers are working to destroy Western culture and society'.
This then connects neatly to the good old traditional 'red scare' stuff in the US, the equally as old antisemitism that's generally alive and well-established in right-wing circles, as well as the slightly newer 'white genocide' bullshit also spread by that NZ terrorist. It gives legitimacy to the idea that fighting the left wing by any means possible is fundamentally right, because they're not just propagating a different view of the world and can be reasoned with, but are actively working to destroy 'the West', so fighting them is just rightful defence. This in turn connects to users on hate subreddits such as /r/the_Donald talking about giving 'helicopter rides' to leftists, referring to Chilean dictator Pinochet's way of disappearing political opponents by dropping them out of helicopters over the ocean. Yes, those people are fucking vile.
All in all, it definitely is more of an anti-left thing than specifically an antisemitic thing, but to some extent, it all goes in one. It's part of a network of 'ideas', if you want to call them that, that any decent human being does not want to be connected to in any way, shape, or form.
