They just suppress everything right of Karl Marx here.
Which is good. All Karl said is "Don't exploit people" and "see politics like a science" all very reasonable stances.
Yeah, he was also a huge antisemite, soโฆ..
It's the main reason why I don't get along with fundamentalists. Marx was a very flawed person and had a lot of garbage views.
DW i'm not talking about the economics, he was right about that. I'm referring to the stuff he want back on later in life upon finding out more. Scientific socialism is all about growing and learning from your mistakes and even though Marx was initially wrong about a lot of stuff, his ideology steered him right back on the correct path; proving that even a flawed person can become a force of overwhelming good through following socialism. Social fascists (liberals) will point to all the bad things a socialist has said/done not realizing that shit gets better with time, while their people start bad and get worse over the period of their life because their ideology is one of exploitation and evil.
