Marx was wrong, but Marxists demand his crap nonetheless

Institute for Social Research at the Goethe University Frankfurt. Founded during the interwar period, the School consisted of neo-Marxist dissidents uncomfortable with existing capitalist systems. Many of these theorists believed that traditional theory could not adequately explain the turbulent and unexpected development of capitalist societies in the 20th century. Critical of both capitalism and socialism, their writings pointed to the possibility of an alternative path to social development.

Marx believed that feudalism would lead to capitalism. Capitalism would create massive inequality between the rich and the poor. The workers would all rise up, and overthrow the hated “bourgeoisie” (the upper class). There would then be a “dictatorship of the proletariat” (the workers) which would ensure equality. Then that government would wear away and break down, and the world would be left with this utopian, egalitarian society. 

So why didn"t Marx"s theory work out as planned?"**

There are numerous theories for this.

For one, the rise in the average person"s standard of living greatly rose in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries

Hello bront:

Yeah.. He was wrong.. So what? Oh, you're trying to say that the Dems are Marxist... Bwa, ha ha ha ha..

Libs like me aren't Marxists any more than you're fascists.. Oh, I know that's what they tell you over on Fox News, but that crap rots your brain..

I'm a pretty good example.. I'm a lefty.. I know LOTS of lefty's like me. Old Al is a lefty.. We're capitalists, and the lefty's I know are ALL capitalists.. Oh, I suppose if you wanted to demonize your opposition, you'd bring up people like Farrakhan, and that long dead "father of Marxism", who I never heard of..

The TRUTH is, libs LOVE their country just as much as you do.. Maybe even more.. We don't wanna change it into Russia.
