People were living poor and working hard whole days in factories and then they got a fancy book which described them as victims of bad bourgeois regime and that there will be utopian regime where you don't need to work hard and you will have power and they liked it. So basically that's because of poority and will to power of the lower class.

It wasn’t, socialism was already happening without Marx. Marx was only influential because socialism was influential, not the other way around

Only one sane and not coping in this thread

The continued relevance of Capital vol. 1 over similar 19th century works (say 'progress and poverty' or Mill's 'principles...') is that while they operate mainly as collections of claims or hypothesises about political economy in the 19th century which are specific and can be evaluated empirically, Marx's work functions more as criticism of the presuppositions of political economy itself. And many followers of marx find his method of criticism useful applied to other things as well. Obviously simplifying but you get the idea: it's the mode of presentation/inquiry which is enduring, not the substance (nobody does 'political economy' anymore least of all the ricardian version marx was critiquing)

It took the enlightenment paradigm of overthrowing the clerics and aristocracy in favour of bourgeoisie to its logical consclusion which is the dictatorship of the proletariat.

Marx and utopian do not belong in the same sentence dumbfuck

[Anonymous No.18319522]

I'm pretty sure that Kropotkin should be the standard bearer for socialist thought, not Marx. Marx has way to much baggage and bases much of his economic theory on a false claim of the Labor Theory of Value, which has easily been disproven both practically and theoretically.

Please at least tell me you're not yet another idiot who hasn't even read the first chapter of Capital and only has the 'mud pie' argument.
