Leon, not at all making fun of people for being English teachers in Korea, just pointing out the irony of people considering themselves socialist/Marxist and then moving to the Samsung Republic and making someone else rich. And I can see from your comment you haven't become a parent yet. Meanwhile, you could say I was comparing myself to a loser because the topic of this thread was a loser.

"it's like you are a weird super jew/amish hybrid."
thanks?

"all your rants read as if you yourself, perhaps in your twenties (since you seem to have an obsession about 20-somethings loving marx), were really into marxist ideas. but then one day someone pimp slapped you with anti-marxist knowledge. you now project your former ignorance onto younger people to cope with your insecurity.

or you're just a weird dude. "
I'm just a weird dude. And thanks for letting me know that I need to get a life because I've devoted about half an hour of my life over the last week to this thread.

Has anyone in this thread said they are a Marxist? Believing that Marx is a philosopher worth reading is not the same as believing in Marxism.

I think being a "Marxist" (how about just socialist) wage-slave in the Samsung Republic is less ironic than all the Ayn Rand devotees working the same job, but that's just me. Very few working people in this world are not "making someone else rich" (or, in other words, employed by someone)

"Being a parent is one of the most personally significant things in the world. Claiming parenthood as a major achievement is banal in the fact that is it overwhelmingly common."
-It's increasingly less common but you're right. My point was any man wo holds a steady job and provides for his family has accmplised more tha Marx.
"Anyways castigating a philosopher for personal defects is banal."
-Thats your opinion, just as mine is it' stupid to make a hero of someone with so many.
"Who cares that Einstein cheated on his wives many times or married his cousin. Are you going to try to tell me you achieved more than Einstein because you are good father?"
-Of course not, nor I think people should mak ahero of him.
"Honestly who cares about what Marx did in his life, the man is long dead. His work is all that's left. "
-great!
"I think being a "Marxist" (how about just socialist) wage-slave in the Samsung Republic is less ironic than all the Ayn Rand devotees working the same job, but that's just me."
-If you say, not really interested in her, didn't like The Virtue of Selfishnes.
"Very few working people in this world are not "making someone else rich" (or, in other words, employed by someone)"
-That's true, sincere commies/Marxists/socialists are very elusive.

Does this mean that we can start a thread on how Disney and Ford sucked because they hated certain groups of people?


Also calling someone a loser and saying you've done so much better than them because your family isn't as dysfunctional as their was....well it is apples and oranges because you aren't living in the same situation as they are. Maybe write a book that makes history and influences some powerful, albeit horrible, people and than we can start saying you were so much better.

Karl Marx an anti-Semite? Probably.

We forget how things are like in the recent past. In Europe, the culture was a hatred of the Jews (along with just about every other culture on the planet), blaming them for every problem, systemic an government approved. We forget this ???

Ideas that the Nazis had in that era didn't come out of the air.

-Sure, it's a free world.

"Also calling someone a loser and saying you've done so much better than them because your family isn't as dysfunctional as their was....well it is apples and oranges because you aren't living in the same situation as they are."
-Any man who isn't an anti-Semite and who doesn't let his kids starve, squander an inheritance and cheat in his wife is a better man than Marx.

"We forget how things are like in the recent past. In Europe, the culture was a hatred of the Jews (along with just about every other culture on the planet), blaming them for every problem, systemic an government approved. We forget this ???"
-Some people aren't products of their time and rise above it.

"You seem to have missed the fact that Marx himself was Jewish."
-He had Jewish roots, his family converted to Lutheranism and he was an anti-theist.
