You missed the “once-” before “Marxist:”
Sowell described his serious study of Karl Marx in his autobiography; as a former Marxist who early in his career became disillusioned with the philosophy, he emphatically opposes Marxism, providing a critique in his book Marxism: Philosophy and Economics (1985).

- peoplefromibiza 5y agoI did not, I was merely pointing out that former-something means they hold a grudge against that something, hence not actually to be taken as an example of some kind of neutrality. It's like asking Talibans what they thought of USA when they financed them and after they invaded their country and bombed their villages. With the difference that no communist ever harmed Sowell.
