He was just a fucking STEMfag, wasn't he? A fucking STEMfag that bugged out hard. It all fits. The autism. The technical knowledge. The mathematical skill. The disdain for the arts. He's no different than your average /g/ or /sci/ poster. Why is he so lauded? Any idiot can tape some dynamite together and abuse the postal system.

No it's literally because Marx mixes some quite sound historical and economic analysis with a lot of weird Millennarian/New Age/atheist gobbledygook that winds up discrediting the good things in his work. And subsequent Marxists have only added MORE gobbledygook, and behaved in increasingly retarded and destructive ways, like when Stalin starved half the Ukraine and Mao killed every bird in China and caused a famine.

This is why nobody fucking likes Marxists, because the start out talking very sensibly about the plight of the working-class and the evils of capitalism but then they spin themselves off into Looney Tunes land. It's exactly why nobody fucking liked the Jacobins, because they took the legitimate grievances of the poor in France and used them as an excuse to do all sorts of retarded bullshit. And it's exactly why when Napoleon took power he immediately did away with almost all of their stupid ideas, and even allowed himself to be crowned by the Church.
