Marx WAS a Jew, so how could he do what you say?

That is a "fact" from the Nazi propaganda that current anti-Semites keep alive. The Marx family was Jewish, indeed. Euther Karl's father or grandfather converted out of Judaism. As happens to many converts, Karl Marx became a vicious anti-Semite.

For Nazis, it was not a religion or conduct that mattered: the "Jewish blood" of Marx, no matter how anti-Semitic (he despised Russians, too, incidentially --- how ironic) he was, made him Jewish in the eyes of the Nazis.

Thank you!

If I remember correctly, he thought that Marxism should have started in industrial countries like Britain or Germany, richtig?
