Karl Marx believed that the proletariat are the naturally superior class and would in time gain the dominant position in society and the only thing holding them back is the capitalists / bourgeoisie.

You have to understand that class division was much sharper in Marx's time than it is now. The "middle class" of today was nonexistent in Marx's time, and the social injustice in his mind (he reasoned) was due to economic enslavement of the poor. Unfortunately, the "Communism" of the Soviet Union (et al.) was nowhere near the "Communism" of Karl Marx's dreams -- class division still reigned, as those in power still had quite a cushy life, and those who didn't, struggled.

No, he grew to become into no longer ultimate. It grew to become into even pointed to him that he has huge issues to prepare a lot of human beings to a minimum of one or yet another of his "training". His equipment is binary primitive (exploitators and exploited) and maximum folk play diverse roles at diverse situations even for the period of the day. "Marxist" case can rather be made than once you're paying for bread on your community bakery, you're exploiting baker and his relatives. Or that by utilizing working at some corporation you're exploiting proprietor of that corporation and the community of centers (HR, company legal experts, accounting) proprietor had created for you. LOL Marx might protest, yet his awful concept does enable this pliability. Marx grew to become right into a con artist packed with envy - no longer a actual logician. history is the history of adult adult males.

The theory of communism sounded good to some, but he left out the part about murdering 50 million Russians and 80 million Chinese. The two world wars weren't mentioned , either. Not many know that Karl Marx's real name was Mordecai. We know who changes their names and why and he was no different. He came from a long line of rabbis.
