It's Karl Marx, and his theories weren't the same as communism. He wrote about the didactics of the enlightenment (I'm not sure if I translated this correctly), and Marxism. Which said that plan economics was better than free economics, because the lather would collapse.

My bad on the spelling, but he was very active in the communist parties.



And he wrote the "Communist Manifesto".

I thought that a part of marxism was that communism would eventually rule. I didn't really link him with being a communist himself.

Then again, I didn't really go deep into the matter.

[edit]

''The Manifesto suggested a course of action for a proletarian (working class) revolution to overthrow the bourgeois social order and to eventually bring about a classless and stateless society.''

You were right.

I thought Marxism was an accepted thing in America, with the che t shirts and everything. Quite parallel to kurt cobain.

Longest sentence ever

I would definitely do Marx. Socialism is a very interesting subject. Why Americans hate it so much is odd to me? I mean you have tons of people who don't want to work screaming for universal health care.
