Attempting to read about Bahá'í views on politics and economy, there seems to be a bit of a history of the Guardians having really lib takes, up to and including labeling communism as a "false god". Bahá'ís tend to be pretty deferent to the state authorities they live under, and also refuse to engage in party politics, which to me feels sort of yehhhh but also ehhhh. These Bahá'í policies feel like they probably have origins as survival strategies, when Bahá'ís have this history of persecution.
There are Bahá'ís who self-describe as Marxist, but these are few in number and are apparently ridiculed as oxymoronic; as a whole Bahá'ís seem to actively reject materialism as "satanic" and antithetical to their spirituality, and the notion of class warfare is seen by many Bahá'ís as a "divisive" view of humanity, and hence goes against the faith's teachings.
Simultaneously, Bahá'ís do seem to have some respect for Marxism, acknowledging parallels in the histories of Bahá'í Faith and Marxism, as well as recognizing the similarities of values held by Marxists and Bahá'ís, such as universal brotherhood; some Bahá'ís do acknowledge that their views of Marxism are colored by living in a liberal society, and are therefore more willing to actually engage with Marxist theory, to learn from it without embracing it wholeheartedly; and some of the common Bahá'í takes on politics are pretty decent in an apparently "stopped clock" kind of way.
So basically, I want to know: does anyone here have experiences with teaching Bahá'ís about Marxist ideas? Are there any organizations for Bahá'í Marxists? Have any of you met or interacted with any Marxist Bahá'ís? How do we feel about Bahá'ís in general, reconciling the Bahá'í Faith with Marxism in the same way as there are Marxists of other religions? Is this reconciliation possible? Is it worthwhile?
