That racist and anti-Semitic Marx you don't expect
Communism and Antiracism: if not now synonymous, However, they are two terms that lately conveniently go hand in hand. But how much do the comrades really know their cultural roots? Listening to the talk going around or reading some hysterical tweet, I'd say not much. On the contrary, I would say not at all.
With today's article we will move away for a moment from the sphere of right-wing philosophy and thought to immerse ourselves in the strange communist world, flowery on the outside and genocidal on the inside, going to discover those statements by Marx and Engels that would make even the most hardened of xenophobes tremble. The hope is that someone can finally change their minds about the genuineness of communism and the unconditional goodness of its "values", understanding how false the communism-anti-racism connection is.
To understand what follows, a fundamental premise must be made: per Marx, communism could only have established itself once capitalism had reached its peak, with the collapse of the latter under its own weight. The first type of racism is therefore shown towards all those peoples defined as "counter-revolutionary", that is, peoples who, due to culture or technological backwardness, were still tied to pseudo-feudal models, thus not allowing capitalism to spread and therefore, consequentially, removing the possibility of the realization of the communist dystopia.
