Karl Marx-communist

[Allison]

Karl Marx was considered the Father of Communism thought. He claimed
that communism would be the final stage among people. He believed in
"Pure Communism" refering to a classless, stateless, and opression
free society. This would only be achieved by a Proletarian Revolution-
a revolution in which a working class attempts to overthrow
bourgeoisie. Bourgeoisie is a social class characterized by the owner
ship of capital and are distinguished from social classes whose power
derived from being born into an aristocratic family of titled
landowners who were granted feudal privileges by the monarch. World
revolution is the Marxist concept of overthrowing capialism in all
countries through Communist Revolution.

What are everyones thoughts on this? What other ideas did he come up
with to make people think about their own lives?

[Katelyn M Mosher]

Marx was a German philosopher whose ideas are recognized as modern communism. Marx believed capitalism would eventually produce internal conflicts/tensions which would bring it to its destruction. That is why he believed in “pure communism”. But anyways to respond to your question about what it make them think about their own lives were that he was helping the lower class and middle classes, or at least he was trying to even though he failed at it. At least that’s what I’ve read.
