This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Marx believed in a classless society.

Yeah but he didn't. Because money still exists and been poor meant you got less money. So no matter what he said you would still have less. You'd need UBI to really go classless

The man literally wanted to abolish money in the long term. He also wanted to get rid of the profit motive. This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read talking about Marx.

Edit: also thinking UBI will lead to a classless society. What an absolute joke. Not saying UBI is bad or anything, but that's just not what it does. There went me thinking that I was clueless about politics, this is next level misinformed.
