Top class discussion here men! Reduce the founder of sociology to a collection of personal foibles and anecdotes!
A faggot even!
That's called ad hominem, the lowest form of argument. Someone got an entire book out of it? At least he found an audience.
May I suggest you read Das Kapital? No, don't bother.
Deep forum ahoy!
Your attempt of implying that Das Kapital has any sensible value means that you have not read it or has not understood it. It's okay, its a fairly long and hard read and I haven't read all of it either.
But anyways, Das Kapital is a work that encompasses history, sociology, economics, etc. But most of it has been rebutted already in the 19th century. Some os its historical aspects are either plain guesswork from Marx and Engels trying to make up arguments (pre private property sociology, which pretty much all antropologists prove that what they say was not real) or simply deliberately wrong, again in order to invent arguments (roman/greek slavery methods of production and correlation with government systems).
The post is mainly about his life, about how a pathetic man he was, but his work is equally pathetic as we have seen the results in the last century and even now in Venezuela. Pathetic men, who do not hold them to the truth and facts tend to make pathetic works. It is important to know who is writing what, their agenda and their influences in life. If Marx were writing parental advice you probably would not want to take it seriously after seeing how his family turned out.
Also, wtf? Founder of sociology? Marx was not, it was Max Weber.
