I could have sworn I remember seeing a book about Marxism and the occult mentioned here sometime. But when I look that up all I see is chud shit about le communism and Satan!!!@!

So, am I crazy or does a cool book about that topic exist somewhere?

Closest I know of its utopian socialism being held closely by Eliphas Levi, though later in his life he had a reactionary turn iirc. Some other old occultists had utopian socialistic views or utopic communistic views, and there's some books on the rise of humanist/socialist religion out there but I haven't personally read them, so I can't make suggestions.
