Got top Marx in class

Few people talk about Marx' younger sister, Anya, who was a near world class sprinter in a time when women were discouraged from such things.

She became so famous back then for her abilities that they still say her full name at the beginning of most every competitive footrace in the world.

I…. Hate you….

Bourgeois is the characteristic of the middle class.

Bourgeoisie is the middle class itself.

The Aristocracy is the class that controls most governments.

that's not the Marxist definition most leftists use
- During the time of Marx, the bourgeoisie was keeping the proletariat down. They directly owned the means of production, since Soviet Russia did not have a stock market.
  Now in the US, the bourgeoisie has become smaller and less influential. They no longer own the means of production due to selling shares.
  Our oppressors are the aristocrats. They sit on the boards with majority power, giving direction without directly running the businesses.

If anyone wants to get higher Marx in class, I made an introductory Marxist reading list 🤓

Facebook memes... nice.

Hmmm what about Leninism

Frankly, I think the Professional Managerial Class is more of an impediment to progress in the US. They're content with having 25-80% more than their peers, and thus will happily unite with the petite bourgeoisie to punch downwards at any progressive reforms.

The billionaires are the real problem. Targeting anyone else is just a distraction.
- They are, but if you're only focused on one element, without seeing the whole picture, than any solution is temporary at best.
  It's not just that billionaires are bad, their existence is a symptom of a larger broken system. And within that same broken system are millions of cogs that perpetuate and solidify the system's processes. So without addressing the Professional Managerial Class and petite bourgeoisie's complicity, the system would simply create more billionaires after enough time has passed.
  To say that these other elements are "a distraction" is dismissive of larger root problems. So consider that your perspective is too narrow.
