And hey, under their theory, if you get a force together strong enough, you can take it from them. For your comrades and those others in need of, and more deserving of course...

“Theres this myth of the free market, but Marx shows very clearly that capitalism emerged through a state of violence.”
Certifiably insane. Put her in a padded room.

I have the DVD “The Admiral” an excellent excellent film!
Who would have that the great leader of the Whites would end up on a Russian film portrayed as a tragic hero (in Greek tragic style!)instead of as a one dimensional devil.

Teen Vogue is the magazine that has the bimbo Lauren Duca on it's staff. She was on Tucker Carlson's program, and truly personifies the sobriquet Bimbo.

The Teacher’s Union made Marx Great Again.
Public unions must be outlawed. The tax payers are not represented.

Karl Marx HATED the middle class.
He wanted them DEAD.
He wanted their blood FLOWING in the streets.
But you middle class Marxists just love your socialism.

It's hard to know where to begin with Marx in the face of people who love him but haven't read him. These are proceeding on the faith of small children that their Authority cannot be wrong. Suffice it to say that in the
Manifesto he and Engels make certain rock-solid predictions practically none of which came true. In fact, by the 1860's, when he wrote
Capital, Marx had to modify those predictions into the form "haven't happened yet but will", a form that has persisted for more than a century. For example, no, the industrial proletariat did not become more illiterate, more "immiserated", but literate and prosperous even within Marx's lifetime. Profits for the capitalists did not go down, they went up. The working class found itself in the role of
petit bourgeoisie first, and through union pension funds, major capitalists, among the highest holders of common stock in America. When you approach a factory these days the first thing you run into is the parking lot, filled with automobiles that are possessed by the working class (a true proletariat cannot do this) and many of which purchased on credit (a true proletariat cannot do this either). It's
ALL WRONG.
There is, as well, the silent but telling evidence that Marxist economists are strictly hot-house plants in academia for the simple reason that any company run on those precepts goes broke. We see in Venezuela what happens when an entire country is run on those precepts. And still they believe. We are dealing with people who pride themselves as rational, believers in "scientific" socialism, and they're the most irrational people on the planet.

Irony is lost on a bunch of millennial idiots who are part of a multi-media corporate empire raking in huge profits in a market economy selling a worthless, salacious rag to an equally stupid bunch of millennial idiots who in a real Marxist/socialist system would be put to a firing squad or a gulag as being a bunch of spoiled cosmopolitan degenerates.

I can see it. Young people basking in the luxury and safety provided by their parents, thinking that wealth redistribution is a cool idea.
Reminds me of those filthy hippies in San Fran denouncing capitalism and materialism and "the Man" while begging food from store owners and restaurants. And while begging for money from the very "man" they held in such contempt.
Yeah, I can see it.

Marx was cited for emphasizing capitalisms capacity to dehumanize workers. The Khmer Rouge humanized them so well...
See how individual they all are?

How do you tell a communist?
Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin.
And how do you tell an anti-Communist?
It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

Socialists claim to want ownership of the resources by teh people.
Today, either directly or indirectly (through pension funds and organizations), over 50 percent of us are stockholders — meaning, owners of at least a small piece of major companies.
IOW, the people own the resources. So why are the socialists so unhappy about it?

To: TBP
Let’s also not forget that he and Engels created that whole “Communist” schtick specifically to reenact Robespierre’s reign of terror and make it even more of a bloodletting disaster than before. That bit needs stressing, especially when there are too many people enamored with the French Revolution as it is.
