He had sex with a succubus name Lilith and spawned evil children on this wretched world.

He shacked up with an Irish woman and allegedly her sister too allegedly.

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I thought that was Engels

People like to allege that it was Marx to impugn on his character, but it was probably Engels

[–] ZWQbpkzl@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

Damn TIL. Marx was married to Jenny Von-Westphalen and Engel's was living with Mary Burns and after she died he married Lizzie Burns.

I've also heard people accuse Marx of abandoning his kids and wife, as if that magically invalidates communism because he can't possibly actually care for people.

I think it's irrelevant to communism but is that shit even true? I know the guy was broke anyway.

[–] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I don't know, I never found Marx's personal life that interesting so I never looked into it. I've looked into his career -- despite being broke, he was a busy boy -- but not things like his marriage. That Engels was more likely the guy here is just something I happened to pick up.

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

Yeah, I feel you. I don't really care either. Regardless he produced some of the most monumental work of all human history. You can't just dismiss it because he was potentially a deadbeat dad. It doesn't even matter. Also, of course he was a deadbeat, he was fucking totally broke living off his sugardaddy.

Man produced though.

Chad Marx seduced a German princess and convinced her to become his communist wife. They then fucked a lot and had a large number of children.
