> Isn't a lockdown in a free market system inherently unfair? Sure, but then again, to be pendantic, we never lived in a 100% free market and there a always regulations that prevent that whether you agree with them or not (I personally beleive some are better than others). Marxism is not taking money generated from a capitalist system and then redistributing it while keeping the system in place. It's difficult to reduce marxism to a simple definition because a lot of it is really about his various analyses on society. The best way is probably to read his works, or a relatively unbiased analysis of it. Any paranoid ramblings about a Marxist takeover of the US are comical at best. The US has a strong anti-communist history that survives today. In the past, association with leftist groups could end up with you being persecuted and I imagine even today overt interaction with far-left groups could get you on a list. There is basically no one arguing for te "temporary Marxism" (which really isn't able thing anyway) and basically no one in america would support it. Despite what some, even in their own party would like to tell you, even majority of democrats are far from such leftist idealogies.
