It's all good, bro. ;-).

I'm not defending Marx, but that shit was over the top. If that was real then we'd have heard about it for decades.

Marx the super antisemite!!! It was hilariously, over-the-top crazy. ;-)

Per the article: Marx didn't write these.

But it is not the purpose of the publishers of "A World Without Jews" to give publicity to Marxian thought. Their purpose is to advance the preposterous claim that Marx was anti-Semitic;

This was intended to be a hit piece against Marx.

This was intended to be a hit piece against Marx.

As in, the intention of the authors, and publishers.

However, you may have been agreeing with Marx? Especially, given the recent tenor of popular posts that convincingly suggest a conflict of interest with Israeli dual citizenship in politics.

Both conclusions could be seen as reasonable, depending upon one's politics.
