Was he right?

the communist manifesto isn't supposed to be a scholarly piece in economics. it was written to provoke poor workers to revolt immediately. Marx wrote tomes upon tomes of actual scholarly literature though

He didn't even visit the factories of his best friend, who fed his useless ass, owned. No need ofc, since an intellectual who never worked a day in his life knows better.

his friend engels also said niggers are closer to monkeys, and they both shared antisemitic sentiments despite marx being jew.
also both were pro gun

>let them in, what are you? a bigot?
Well what do you expect to happen when you lump everyone you don't like into one group and call them communists?

His anaylsis of capitalism in Capital is pretty spot on.

To be an activist you actually have to get up off your friends couch and do something

What about Engels, his (often ignored) partner, who owned a factory and contributed a lot to his works?

essentially it’s okay to be armchair economist/philosopher as long as you defend the capital and the staus quo.

Engels was a retard compared to Marx.

>you
they lump themselves in that group, not me

Did you read Capital?

>The Communist Manifesto literally is just a angry man ranting. It holds almost no value as scholarly piece in economics.
No shit sherlock, that would be Das Kapital where he goes into the economics 9f capitalism and why it's shit

Did they just give a neckbeard to Charles Lee?

>The Jewish nigger Lassalle who, I’m glad to say, is leaving at the end of this week, has happily lost another 5,000 talers in an ill-judged speculation. The chap would sooner throw money down the drain than lend it to a ‘friend’, even though his interest and capital were guaranteed. In this he bases himself on the view that he ought to live the life of a Jewish baron, or Jew created a baron (no doubt by the countess). Just imagine! This fellow, knowing about the American affair, etc., and hence about the state of crisis I’m in, had the insolence to ask me whether I would be willing to hand over one of my daughters to la Hatzfeldt as a ‘companion’, and whether he himself should secure Gerstenberg’s (!) patronage for me! The fellow has wasted my time and, what is more, the dolt opined that, since I was not engaged upon any ‘business’ just now, but merely upon a ‘theoretical work’, I might just as well kill time with him! In order to keep up certain dehors vis-à-vis the fellow, my wife had to put in pawn everything that wasn’t actually nailed or bolted down!

-Karl Marx

I think you're confusing liberalism with communism
Lots of Communists detest liberals because of their nauseating love for identity politics that only serve to perpetuate capitalism. I.E. MORE BLACK WOMEN CEOS
Communists still critique immigration from a Capitalist perspective (cheap labour), but not from a social one.

Doesn't the game turn him into a toothless social democrat?

Yes. They make him into some sort of peaceful protestor of sorts.

no, im not confusing and im referring to the situation in europe, may be different in US.
atm even self declared socialists and communists are voting for a neoliberal fiscal conservative party simply because it’s pro immigration and pro EU.

Does him not working make his theories wrong somehow?

See

what game is this

I don't know what part of Europe you're in, but in my part they hold traditional communist views.

Marx identified that the state only exists by the grace of and to serve the interests of big business literally 100 years before any lolbritarians did.

Noi, Marx was a class 1 retard who never understood Adam Smith's theories on charity and just assumed that rich people will keep 100% of the money they get.

>t.economist
Degenerates like you belong on a cross.

Marxism gay but Marx is based for being a lifelong NEET that just leeched off his friend

For the time period, yes. The Gilded age was the rich fucking the poor no lube no condom. Kids working in dangerous shit, wages were a joke as was work saftey and security.

His ideas have killed over 100,000,000.

There's a lot of "socialist" or "labour" parties in Europe that are just artifacts of a bygone era. They're social democrats at best, right-wingers at worst.

There's a fucking right wing party called "Left", for fuck's sake.

Good

Inequality is as bad today as it was in the First Gilded Age.

also, their representative in economic commission recently called low income people “stock of poors” in a public debate. this is coming from the left party and not one of them bat an eye.

Why did englels let him leech for so long?
