Marxism wouldn't be so bad if socio-political leaders didn't weaponize it to prey on the gullible with false promises in order to gain power.
Until the susceptibility for corruption gets purged from the human condition, it will forever be a vessel to usher in an authoritarian government.
These people on the ground who believe they are fighting for progressive reform are being lied to by wealthy and powerful individuals (Hollywood, Politicians) who also seek to use them as a means to an end. Such is the way of the world, and has been since the inception of man.
As such, I will continue to oppose it wherever possible.
