A few days late but better late than later:
"Today marks the 140th anniversary of the death of Karl Marx -- one of the most evil men in history
Marx was an alcoholic who never washed. Boils covered his body, preventing him from sitting down
He refused to work, and drove his family to destitution -- causing the deaths of his two sons from exposure and illness
He raped his unpaid maid, and had Engels subsidise their illegitimate child
He wrote poetry romanticising the ingesting of poison -- the method by which two of his daughters would later commit suicide
One of those daughters Marx disowned for marrying a Cuban man, who Marx insulted as ‘Negrillo’ and ‘The Gorilla’
Marx was also explicitly genocidal -- calling for ‘revolutionary terror’, theft, and murder against the ill-defined 'bourgeoisie'
He said ‘the next attempt of the French revolution’ should be so bloody that ‘beside [it] the French Revolution [would be] child’s play’
He forecast a dictatorship would inevitably arise from this bloody revolution, and require absolute power to collectivise and redistribute property to achieve communism
He idolised Mephistopheles from Faust, insisting that ‘Everything that exists deserves to perish.’
No wonder every experiment with Marxism produces mass murder, privation, starvation, tyranny, and Hell on Earth
Long after his death, Marx's spectre of contempt for existence itself haunts our civilisation
We would do good to rid ourselves of it"
