Is Karl Marx a Satanist? Anonymous Sat Jun 13 01:42:27 2020 No.15595176 [Reply] [Original]

This shit is starting to scare me, it's like satanism has been a real and dangerous force through history. Is the modern right wrong to consider Marxism more than merely an ideology, but an Evil force of destruction? He's apparent presupposed materialism and atheism, it all makes sense now. See:

>What is little known is that, in his early years, the baptized Karl was a dedicated Christian. In his graduation essays from the Trier gymnasium in 1835, the very young Marx prefigured his later development. His essay on an assigned topic, "On the Union of the Faithful with Christ" was orthodox evangelical Christian, but it also contained hints of the fundamental "alienation" theme that he would later find in Hegel. Marx's discussion of the "necessity for union" with Christ stressed that this union would put an end to the tragedy of God's alleged rejection of man. In a companion essay, "Reflections of a Young Man on the Choice of a Profession," Marx expressed a worry about his own "demon of ambition," of the great temptation he felt to "inveigh against the Deity and curse mankind."
>The shift to atheism quickly gave Marx's demon of ambition full rein. Particularly revelatory of Marx's adult as well as youthful character are volumes of poems, most of them lost until a few were recovered in recent years.1 Historians, when they discuss these poems, tend to dismiss them as inchoate romantic yearnings, but they are too congruent with the adult Marx's social and revolutionary doctrines to be casually dismissed. Surely, here seems to be a case where a unified (early plus late) Marx is vividly revealed. Thus in his poem "Feelings," dedicated to his childhood sweetheart and later wife Jenny von Westphalen, Marx expressed both his megalomania and his enormous thirst for destruction:
>"Heaven I would comprehend
>I would draw the world to me;
>Living, hating, I intend
>That my star shine brilliantly …
and
>Worlds I would destroy forever,
>Since I can create no world;
>Since my call they notice never …"
Another poem:
>"Then I will be able to walk triumphantly,
>Like a god, through the ruins of their kingdom.
>Every word of mine is fire and action.
>My breast is equal to that of the Creator."
"Invocation of One in Despair" poem:
>"I shall build my throne high overhead
>Cold, tremendous shall its summit be.
>For its bulwark — superstitious dread
>For its marshal — blackest agony."
"The Fiddler," dedicated to his father:
>"See this sword?
>the prince of darkness
>Sold it to me.
and
>With Satan I have struck my deal,
>He chalks the signs, beats time for me
>I play the death march fast and free."

Considering the utter degenerate Marx was in his life, famously his money-addiction and uncaring attitude for friends or family, this would make sense. Was Marx inspired to destroy the worker, rather than save him? Had he planned to destroy Western Civilisation all along?
