Understanding Marxism

If Marxism is about free $#@!, count me in

This popped up on my youtube page and might be something new to you all. In it, Thomspon mentions History, that Rubasho betrays others in the name of an idea, in the name of history, History, that is, with a capital H, the science of History, the way toward Progress. He stops to explain, which he does: history, he says, is traditionally the study of the past, but to Marxists, History is the study of the future, it is a replacement for God, History moving toward the predetermine ideal/idyllic communist state, the creation of heaven on earth.

I don't think a lot of these guys care at all about what kind of government they are going to usher in. They just know that they hate the current one and want to destroy it.

And that was all Marx was good for. Destroying what currently existed with promises of Utopia.
