Should I even bother reading anything by Marx or is it as midwit tier and gay as it sounds

Well considering there's multiple schools and intellectual traditions based on his thought, not to mention entire national movements, I find it hard to imagine YOU are much smarter than he and his adherents.

Not my concern, I'm not a Marxist, just wanted to point out the absurdity of OP's question.

Marx is a genius. Read Avineri’s “The Social and Political Thought of Karl Marx”, it’s a good intro to the more philosophical side of his writing.

Im not a marxist but still read. However, personally ive had a background in previous philosophical developments which i think is the best way to not become a dogmatic marxist tranny dilettante, but I know most people cant be bothered reading the western canon as a primer. id still recommend to not be a faggot.

If you go in with bad faith and prejudice about anything you probably aren't going to get much out of it.

Marx has had a lot of influence on labor economics whether you believe it or not.

Nope. Marx stole (like all communists steal), his ideas mainly from Smith and Ricardo. Also he's German. Never trust a German to not relentlessly destroy the fabric of society at all moments in his life.

No he wasn't. He was Jewish.

>anglo retard
The anglo is perhaps even worse than the German, insofar as the Anglo is fundamentally in love with being repressed. Anyone with horse teeth has nothing valuable to say anyway.
>>15178298
>boomer
The boomer is a corporeal manifestation of the worst qualities of both the German and the Anglo, being narcissistic and unthinking, irrational against change, and the Anglo's typical self-assurance that he is absolutely correct. Despicable.

You still have not addressed the fact that Marx was a Jew and not a German.

i find this "marxism failed" line of rhetoric to be a thought-terminating cliché. From the paris commune, to the USSR, no social experiment in Marxism has gone unsabotaged. Would it be fair to declare you a "failure at driving" if I slashed your tires and poured sugar in your gas tank?

This is why you won't ever have communism
