Why was he such a hypocrite

Is being a journalist and published author suddenly not work?

That's bougie as fuck.

Many Jews betrayed their religion and joined the Bolsheviks, it's a non-issue. And yes, by betray I mean they suppressed the Jews, not switch one religion for another.

Shock horror a people with no nation wanted to make the world a better place, despite some of them being heavily involved in usury.

I meant to say factory work that can maim you or back breaking field work. His only problem was spending his earning on fucking caviar, cheap smokes and alcohol.

1) BUNDERFULL pic
2) because the working class by itself can not arrive to
2a) class consciousness
2b) a consciousness that transcends the current system

this is in no way an "anti-workerist" position, merely stating the facts.

This sounds like /ourguy/. When can we make him famous or something?

t. Lenin

He was completely right.

I love this meme.

If you think that was somehow "hypocritical", you don't understand Marx's theory. Marx was far from some fruity liberal that advocated bullshit like "being the change" and purging the inner capitalist.

is duh jooooooooooos XDDDDD
material relations are tied to ethnic/religious social constructions XDDD

The guy hasn't done physical labor. He doesn't know what it feels like to sweat in a hot and stuffy factory, on an assembly line trying hard to keep up with the conveyor belt lest he be yelled at by the foreman for "slacking off." And there's always that chance he could lose a limb like so many other workers.

All Marx did was sit on his fat ass and eat and drink and scribble some fucking words. He might as well been bourgeoisie since they don't have to work as hard as us. That's all they do. Paperwork!

Yeah he did write some good things but he's a fucking hypocrite. It's like us preaching about Communism but buying the newest iphones, clothes, cars or even upscale fast food like Chick Fil A.

it's not about how the workers are treated, it's about the conditions around working being exploitive. Marx tried to explain with his writing that the workers should work for themselves and not for an employer.

Regardless of your feeling of a system, you still live under it and engage in it. It's not really optional and preaching some sort of ethical consumerism in order to personally absolve yourself, as opposed to actually trying to dismantle or understand the system, is useless.

...

You don't seem to understand Marx's theory or what the word "hypocrite" means. Marx wasn't concerned with the day-to-day treatment of workers, but rather the functioning of the capitalist system as a whole.

Found the champagne socialists. Meaning you guys support it for everyone else but want better treatment for yourselves. You guys want to be on the council instead of on the fields with your brothers and sisters working for the greater good.

I actually worked in factories but prefer the construction site digging ditches and carrying pipes. That's why I think Marx is a little bitch.

Get on my level posers.

I don't know what you're talking about or how you're coming to your conclusions.

Marx is known for his critique of capitalist political economy and his materialist philosophy.

What about any of this requires that he needed to work in a field?

Goosestep your way back to Holla Forums faggot.

So if that's what you do for a living then why don't you want to democratize it and put a stop to porkies parasitizing you? Why don't you want to stop porky from manipulating your government to work against your interests? Why don't you want to put an end to capitalism's creation of a culture that works to exploit as much wealth from people like you as possible, all the while telling you it's your fault you are poor? Why are you okay with porkies turning the sweat off your brow into obscene amounts of wealth while you take a pay cut?

There is no bigger cuck in the world than an anti-communist prole.

...

You are that Starbucks hipster barista faggot who screams revolution but has never been in a fight in his life. You're a poser and I bet you learned about Communism at college your parents paid for.

Meanwhile I worked all my life and never set foot in that place and studied on my own.

Fuck off. Seriously kill yourself you fucking poser.

...

...

I'm union. I plan to take a leadership position and use that influence to not only increase our wages and benefits but raise some hell for companies that deserve it. I'm still apprenticing but I'm studying as much as I can. Kind of hard when you're working 40+ hours a week.

What is everyone else doing? If you guys are just shitposting you guys are Pol tier LOSERS.

I'm at college reading theory. Why is that a bad thing?

…when did anyone say that they wouldn't work alongside everyone else?

He was poor as fuck. His classcucked friend Friedrich on the other hand.

I see Holla Forums is trying to divide the working-class again.

Is this a troll?

For one, unions are largely on the retreat because most refuse to look beyond the confines of the capitalist system

Damnit it should read:
Every anticommunist critique of Marxism actually applies to capitalism.

So what exactly are you complaining about? All I see are wild accusations over the Internet about people you've never met that seem to have nothing to do with anything. Some people here may be petty bougie or labour aristocrats, a lot aren't. None of that means they aren't willing to do work.

You're a poser that's why. You haven't lived this life. Why would you pretend to be us when you're comfy indoors reading your books and partying everyday? The only struggle you had was your mean ol' boss who yelled at you once because you were late working part-time at Starbucks.

I have more in common with the oppressed undocumented residents here than you.

If you're not US. You're trying to exploit US.

You aren't us. I thought I was in good company but it seems like you guys are all posers. This is what the punks felt when teens started copying them to be cool and rebellious.

...

You've yet to explain why any of this is even remotely important.

Don't give another story about how hard you work, tell us why you think it's so important that everyone be engaged in manual labor.

Unions are good period. I didn't have dental or great healthcare until they accepted me. I can break a bone and nothing come out of pocket.

If you posers want to be useful, work at Walmart and organize for all the workers there. They make billions but their workers are on foodstamps.

Gotta make that money.

The power of unions is limited because capital has found methods to transcend the union, at least, so long as the unions continue to use the outmoded, acceptable methods that they've become too comfortable with and refuse to radicalize.

No one here is against unions, but we're for radical unionism, not milquetoast "bread and butter" unionism.

...

Twisting my words and trying to shame me for being real. It's one thing to be left and be actually working class. It's another thing to be left so you can feel like a rebel and try to score cool points with your peers.

Now let me ask you poser. What kind of work have you done and what have your parents done?

I work full-time as an environmental services tech in a hospital.

It's one thing to be "real", it's another to spout idiotic identity politics around being a "worker".

Most realistically, Trump won because no one was pushed to read Bordiga.

Fuck why can't that statue make shoes!!!!????

So you basically don't have to work and you make better money that those who are working class.

I also know you probably had to go to college to work in environmental science.

You feel inadequate compared to me which is why you're trying to muh ID politiks me in order to silence me. You aren't working class and your parents brought you up in a middle class (maybe even upper middle class) lifestyle.

You're a poser plain and simple.

Ah, fuck it, you're clearly not interested in argument or theory. I'll just keep going.

WTF I hate jews now

How will Holla Forums ever recover?

Class isn't income brackets, Class isn't callused hands.
Class is relationship to the MoP.
All those callus inducing jobs would be automated to a maximum within the first decades of Socialist rule in a 1st world country.
Human potential is naturally directed to creative and managerial endeavors, now by market forces and then by worker-focused planning. Yesterday's "middle class" (industrial workers,white collar management jobs,IT related jobs, service sector jobs) will be tomorrow's "lower class" (peasants, industrial workers,white collar management jobs,tech-related jobs) as productive forces progress.
There is only one working class, regardless of its function to the Capitalist system.

Except Bakunin is /ourguy/

By your argument then CEOs are working class. Their job is in the shareholders' hands then. They just manage their company for tens of millions.

Yes actually, the life of a CEO would be even better if we abolished global capitalism

This guy gets it.

and the fucking irish people wins again, you stupid sasanach

Why do people like this fuck?

I guess scientists are hypocrites for studying diseases they aren't affected by

wew lad

Fuck you, and fuck this whole witchunt of the bourgeoisie that leftists like to masturbate over. It's completely irrelevant whether Marx was a worker or not, the fact that he advanced their interests is to his great credit.
How can anyone take socialists seriously if instead of nationalist/racist idpol which you pretend to hate so much, you have class idpol to the extent that only >pure industrial workers can speak the truth of their condition?
Capitalists aren't le evil Satanists that we can kill and make everything better, that's meaningless and infantile moralising. Your main enemy should br the economic base that enables them to reproduce the existing social relations in the first place.

Technically they are, altough their position is quite bastardized now with the creation of Stock options.

Kill all capitalists and the class cucks that defend them

This a billion times
