Marx was anti-semitic, as was common in his time and place.

I love Agatha Christie, but there is a lot of that in her works, unremarkable at that time.

Don't you think it's transparently deflective to be posting about mid 19th century anti-semitism during a desperate reelection bid by a fascist president?

Had a dumb guy working for me ten years ago. Asked him one day, "do you know who the Marx Brothers are"?
He says "they are communists"!
Stupid kids,,,,,,,,they're getting dumber by the minute.

@Hages Many of us studied Marx decades ago. His ideas are still relevant to the extent we can use them to improve our society. You, a conservative, refence his antisemitism as your election loss nears trying to draw some correlation between ideas from before the Civil War and the people who are going to your new government. You're not fooling anyone, you're just impugning your own credibility.

@Hages You are complicit in posting the video.

@Hages I don't want to make decisions for you, I want to help you understand the implications of your decisions.

@Hages What is the significance of Marx's alleged antisemitism today?

@Hages Even if that is true, and I'm not sure that it is, to focus on it while right here at home today bigotry in the forms of discrimination, hate and violence are being fanned by our our own president is in my view, in addition to being transparently defective, irresponsible. I've said my peace. Goodnight.
