Status Updates From Filosofie şi mit la Karl Marx

not sure when the myth bit kicks in bc so far it’s been that marxism has the same structure as religion ergo scientific socialism sucks, which i respect but wasn’t really what I was looking for

intro
ethical socialism
“marxism is distinguished from all other socialist systems, by its anti ethical tendency. in all of marxism from beginning to end, there is not a grain of ethics, and consequently no more of an ethical judgment than ethical postulate.”
“socialism is inevitable because the class struggle and the victory of the proletariat are inevitable”
marx lived in the age of utilitarian ethics.

“instead of being divided against himself as always in the past, man is to be restored to his human nature- and this is what Marx means by ‘communism’.

Pretty good so far

Hegel: Man is God not not knowing his godness.
Feuerbach: God is Man, yet the idea of an external God undermines our god like attributes as Man.
Marx: Man is his own God yet in a state of alienation.
He changes the language of Hegel, he change the language from German idealism to British political economy; thus alienation becomes division of labor. He changed the meaning of a lot of words.

What I most liked till now is not the discussion about Marx, but the introduction into Hegel. How can Hegel's ideas pass as sensible philosophy... ?
Secondly I do have a great suspicion that the many famous marxist, some of whom gained power, did not actually understood the marxism of Marx at all (Lenin for example). The ones that did and do understand Marx's marxism are not notable people in history.
