    That’s a very fair point.

    That being said, I don’t think Marx would have approved of the attempts at implementing communism in the 20th century.

    Plus, I would argue it’s fair to say Marx heart was in the right place, the same cannot be said of the foundational elements of fascism.

    I am also opposed to communism as it was implemented, but I do think the goal for a stateless, classless society is worth considering (at least on philosophical level).
