If you think he was bad look at Engels

Dismissing an author because of their personal life is the equivalent of trawling through someone’s twitter and getting them cancelled because they made a politically incorrect tweet back in 2013.
It’s irrelevant to the quality of their work and the strength of their arguments.
You’d think the people who enjoy the anonymity provided by 4channel would get this intuitively yet here we are.

He was an editor and wrote more than you ever will.
>become a degenerate stock market gambler relying on your friends' and relatives' handouts
He donated his inheritance money to belgian workers party. He was also banned from almost all European countries so it was hard for him to do anything. He still kept writing and giving himself fully to the cause. Bravery is not something you will ever understand.

cold war propaganda, these numbers come from the black book of communism which is deeply flawed.

Oh, the hypocrisy of this post. Cancel culture was created exactly by butthurt leftists and ultra-liberal Marxists who can't cope with the fact that their entire ideological system can be singlehandedly even by a 10-year-old at first glance. Pic related is you btw

he could've stayed in Germany after getting his degree to become a professional academic bootlicker and have a comfortable life. instead he chose to dedicate his life to something greater. a bugman like yourself would never understand

Being an editor for a short-lived subversive and anarchist newspaper isn't exactly what I would call an achievement in life.

>He donated his inheritance money to belgian workers party.
That only further proves that he sucks at economics lmao

>He was also banned from almost all European countries so it was hard for him to do anything.
Rightfully so. All commies deserve the bullet.

Yeah, because he knew that his ideology would easily attract the low-iq pleb masses

His father's conversion might have been the worst thing for the world, though it was probably a good thing for his dad. If his father hadn't converted and didn't aspire to and then become a middle class lawyer, Marx might have been a humble rabbi instead of the father of modern communism. Marx' incredible linguistic abilities and his natural ability to pilpul proved deadly when his attention turned to skeptical matters and his interests became political.

He saw communism as the necessary culmination of capitalism, that or collapse

Jew be talmudic Capitalists: it's bad.
Jew Karl abolish his judaism, convert to christianity (at 6 years old), write a fucking book explaining why judaism is the religion of money and trade: it's still bad.
Jews can never be appreciated for you people, that's right? If you have jewish DNA, you are necessarily evil, in your retarded world view. That is not a christian world view at all, by the way.
>His father's conversion might have been the worst thing for the world,
Peak idealism. As if one little individual event, change the destiny of the whole world. That is not how things work. Society is the sum of social relations. You cannot change those social relations with a book. You need at least a powerful catalyst, which is, in this case, the very bad aspects of Capitalism.

Economics is made up. As a science, transient. If we ever reach the technological singularity, it's necessity will wane if not altogether disappear. I much prefer what economics purports to be which is the study of choices.
