One would hope that you could come up with a better theory than "the problem with the world is rich people" but one would be wrong, apparently.
Rich people are, in fact, human. They are drawn from the general population.
- Khaine 5y agoUmmm, isn’t that literally what marxists and communists believe? That the proletariat must rise up and overthrow the bourgeois
- slibhb 5y agoSome of them believe that but it's not a Marxian belief. Marx's argument is "structural". The contradictions of a capitalist economy and society are the problem. The bourgeois are a symptom of that, not the cause. Killing all the bourgeois wouldn't solve the problem in itself, a radical restructuring of society is required.
