The Marxist worldview holds that mankind is infinitely malleable and given sufficient power to control, you can defy human nature and create what Lenin called "The New Soviet Man." As we now know, the new soviet man turned out to be just like the old soviet man only drunker and dying younger.

Also there is the belief that the environment determines the “goodness” of the man,

so if they could just get enough power to perfect the environment in which the man lived,
he’d express his “good” nature.

Of course, this is believing the direct opposite of the reality of the human condition.

Yes, in the nature vs nurture debate Marxists are solidly on the "nurture" side.
