actually RedNickII Jean Lafitte was born on 1776 – died 1823 while marx was born May 5, 1818 and died March 14, 1883 so marx would have been 5 years old when lafitte died.
Whatever, was Marx human with all the usual human failings?, yes of course. He was screwing his housekeeper, the letters of Jennie Marx seem to confirm that. Was he an 'alcoholic'? probably not but he did drink a lot of beer. Was he 'lazy'? well any guy who can produce as much work as Marx did can hardly be called lazy. Was he anti Jewish? it seems not (but why should it matter if he was?), Marx believed that over the centuries, Jews in Europe had been more or less forced to live as Bankers.
At 0:57 I've heard that a lot. But people need to realize that during Marx's time, Jews were seen as the worst of the worst capitalists, like they had the reputation of practicing usury and whatnot. Also take into account that "Jew" meant something completely different in France in 1850 than it does today.
@IndoAtheist Capitalism won't just fade away, it's contradictions will help bring about it's own death. One of the contradictions is the one between workers and the rulers. Revolution is the solution to the contradictions. If they don't make some form of revolution, then either society will collapse or capitalism will remain.
okay...here's my next argumentation people wants to be happy right???, people want to be equal (in certain things of course),people want to be free, etc..etc..so why is communism limiting these basic rights???...
Good video.

@IndoAtheist
It isn't limiting that. Those are lies by capitalists who want to scare you away from communism and socialism.

Man's nature is changeable, not constant. Don't believe the lies about Mao. Collectivism wasn't forced.

The dictatorship of the proletariat is the dictatorship of one class over another, not one individual over everyone else.
