“The Bourgeoisie are parasites !” -Karl “Bourgeois Parasite” Marx
I’ll give him that he’s at least qualified to talk about how bourgeois are parasites, now if only he’d put a feet in a factory or ever talked with the average working person.

“Hi Engels, I’m so sorry about your wife’s death and all that, by the way, can you lend me some money?”

If communists ever stopped and looked at what hypocritical asshats their legendary ideological fathers were, I don’t think they’d stay communists.

Capitalist money propping up communism, a tale as old as communism
neomeddah on
This reminded me a very uninteresting conversation I had in the first year of university.
We met a socialist/communist guy, the first communist I’ve met, I was an ignorant asocial idiot btw back then (just as today). We asked tons of questions about communism and stuff to him but we could not agree on many stuff, still had interesting debates. After couple of hours just chilling and having political convos, we decided to order food altogether, and it was a big group you know. Anyway, food arrives, it comes to paying, and since we are more than a dozen of people, a bit confusion arose. In the middle of the payment chaos, I turned to our new-met communist friend and said “hey dude, don’t scam us in this payment chaos while distracting us with all those proleteriat, poor masses and capitalism stuff ok?”. It was a poor, not funny and idiotic joke. The guy just snapped, he threw all the bag of food in his hand and started shouting “WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING? YOU THINK YOU’RE FUNNY?” and stuff, attacking me but people held him. I was shocked but then felt ashamed a bit. I learned to be very careful while making jokes about people’s ideologies.
Anyway, this was my uninteresting memory, thanks for reading

If only he ever worked for some capital instead of writing about it.

If only he’d sold his labour instead, we’d live in a capitalist dystopia where basic human needs aren’t met instead favour of ever increasing profits
Wait…

I love watching triggered liberals act like this automatically cancels out every critique on capitalism.
Like yea, the dude was a racist hypocrite. Does that suddenly make your workplace more democratic? Marx was broke, ha ha, will the money trickle down now? Marx was a narcissist, haha true!, so now wages are kept in line with productivity right? Marx was a bourgeois class member, ok, and you can afford a new car making the minimum wage right?
If you morons genuinely believe that someone has to be of a certain background in order to advocate for a better life for workers, then why do most of yall deepthroat trump and billionaires who have never worked harder than the person who cleans toilets at your work?
