> I think this is a bad example and false equivocation -- Das Kapital is a scientific text and analysis of economic models that was a work-in-progress for the entirety of Marx's life.
There is absolutely nothing scientific about Marx’s works. The Envy driven garbage produced by Marxists and current neo-Marxists leaders is directly responsible for unimaginable human suffering.
I remember well trying to explain to an academic audience that teaching anything or even reading Marx is the economic equivalent to reading the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and taking it seriously. Both are 100% fantasy and evil. Das Kapital is a slanderous attack on the capitalist heroes improving the human condition by an evil dark and envious soul.
I'm not sure how to respond to this -- I'm almost certain you're just going to lament that I'm a product of a broken education system infiltrated by the evils of neo-Marxist propaganda. But I'm curious of your credentials when you mentioned explaining to an academic audience, and I'm wondering what capitalist heroes you think Marx slandered in Capital?
Your characterization of Marx as an "evil dark and envious soul" is humorous to me. Also, why do you keep capitalizing "Envy"?
Let’s take a look at a few highly referenced quotes from Das Kapital:
- "Accumulate, accumulate! That is Moses and the prophets!"
- "Capital is dead labor, which, vampire-like, lives only by sucking living labor, and lives the more, the more labor it sucks."
- “The worker becomes all the poorer the more wealth he produces, the more his production increases in power and range."
- "Capital is reckless of the health or length of life of the laborer, unless under compulsion from society."
- "In proportion as capital accumulates, the lot of the laborer, be his payment high or low, must grow worse."
These are from your supposedly “scientific” Marx. To call Marx a scientist is effectively calling a doomsday cult leader one.
As far as my own personal credentials. I graduated as the top analytical student in a large american high school in the late 80s. From which I went on to an top 5 university and was exposed to the methods of leftist indoctrination. However fortunately for me, having completed all mathematics classes available to me, including all offered at the community college by 15. I discovered markets and programing. I also discovered Hayak and Austrian economics, along with Smith, and many others, independently studying. This combination of extremely high analytical ability, max score on all standardized math tests ever taken, and exposure to actual legitimate political scientists, sociologists, and economists, made all attempts to indoctrinate me with collectivist nonsense futile, much to frustration of my college professors and classmates.
I am extremely familiar with the global banking and financial system. I also was able to comfortably retire before age 40 but instead continue working and expect to until I’m unable.
Marx is an evil man. His envy and hatred has inspired some of
the worst atrocities in human history. The fact he is even taught with any degree of respect or labeled by anyone as a “scientist” is outrageous. He has no numbers, no measurements, no evidence, and every single one of his assertions are categorically false.
So how is this possible. We come to capitalizing Envy.
Envy: A Theory of Social Behaviour
By Helmut Schoeck
I now see I am in the presence of a true genius, and that my Marx is not scientific as I once thought, but simply an evil beast fueled by his hatred of the human race and that he must be stopped. Thank you for enlightening me to the evils of Marx and the evil Left.
It’s just society hasn’t realized they continue to teach the equivalent of creationism to biology when giving legitimacy to Marx and collectivism for economics.
It’s absolutely infuriating and frankly disgusting.
Wait until you read his poetry. Truly a twisted soul. Even the worst dictators thought they were helping their own people at least; Marx just wanted everybody dead.
Angry with God. Makes sense it’s obvious to any real believer. You can feel the Envy and Anger dripping from his words. No submission to the Lord, no respect, no Love.
Obviously he has to try and ban religion also. Very interesting. Thank you. I never knew about this somehow.

The Fiddler
The Fiddler saws the strings,
His light brown hair he tosses and flings.
He carries a sabre at his side,
He wears a pleated habit wide.
"Fiddler, why that frantic sound?
Why do you gaze so wildly round?
Why leaps your blood, like the surging sea?
What drives your bow so desperately?"
"Why do I fiddle? Or the wild waves roar?
That they might pound the rocky shore,
That eye be blinded, that bosom swell,
That Soul's cry carry down to Hell."
"Fiddler, with scorn you rend your heart.
A radiant God lent you your art,
To dazzle with waves of melody,
To soar to the star-dance in the sky."
"How so! I plunge, plunge wihout fail
My blood-black sabre into your soul.
That art God neither wants nor wists,
It leaps to the brain from Hell's black mists.
"Till heart's bewitched, till senses reel:
With Satan I have struck my deal.
He chalks the signs, beats time for me,
I play the death march fast and free.
"I must play dark, I must play light,
Till bowstrings break my heart outright."
The Fiddler saws the strings,
His light brown hair he tosses and flings.
He carries a sabre at his side,
He wears a pleated habit wide.
