Despite it's history of inspiring revolutions, a lot of communist theory is about coats, which makes you wonder why the Tsar didn't just give them the coats before it came to all that
Marx called for a dictatorship of proletariat, which would be very different to the then ongoing dictatorship of the antiletariat. To answer what a letariat is, I visited the university of Cambridge
I wonder if this was from cunk on earth or if this was just a funny comment someone made
Karl Marx wasn't a Marxist though. It's the people who come after him who call themselves Marxists. Mao wasn't a Maoist etc.
(He also said he wasn't a Marxist but that was in response to people calling themselves Marxist who he thought were wrong in their analysis)

In Michael Heinrich's biography of Marx, he says that the name comes from 'Marcus'. It doesn't mean much, but I still think about it occasionally.
Do you mean that first book of his upcoming 4-5 book series on Marx? If so what did you think of it, itβs on my bookshelf right now, been planning on reading it this year.
Yeah. I have a bad habit of quitting books about 1/3 in once I get the gist and the initial hook is gone. Thatβs what happened with this book.
It was decent enough; about as dry as you would expect of a biography, but still interesting. The first book is about his upbringing and young adulthood, and contained a lot of facts I didnβt know about, like how Marxβs thought was influenced by his close relationship with his father-in-law.
