No, he wasn't the first person to find it, he legitimately invented it.

Karl marx Helped with the research on the number 0 and was the lead creator of it
This thread is now about Marx vs Franklin.
Benjamin Franklin found pi and estimated it to a million digits. He also invented a time machine and told the Greeks about it.
He was also a pimp.

Benjamin Franklin was the actual father of nuclear physics, contrary to what Oppenheimer would have you believe.
Benjamin Franklin can divide by 0.
Benjamin Franklin was actually patient zero for syphilis, he fucked so many women in his years that it turned into a pandemic.
Benjamin Franklin is Darth Vader's real father.

Read the book before you bitch about it. Its actually about how we shouldn't give welfare to people who don't work as hard as they could: e.g fat people, lazy people, etc...
But of course you think we should give money to everyone, regardless of whether they deserve it or not.

[/LIST]No.
Stalin was totilatarian Stalinist, Lenin was Marxist-Socialist (NOT Fascism), and Trotsky was Trotskyist.
None of their governments had anything to do with Fascism.
Anyway, I find Marx to be a great man.

Marx believed in power to the people, and equality for all, not public executions and fear tactics.

Yea because I actually think about people other than myself
Communism can never work even when it is perfectly implemented because you'd have to be massively stupid or completely brainwashed.

Or empathetic to other people.
Karl Marx is a better person than Benjamin Franklin, because of his contributions to the art of beard growing.
[QUOTE=ProboardslolV2;21433487]Or empathetic to other people.[/QUOTE]
People are not naturally empathetic to other unless they gain something in return or if they are family.
[QUOTE=lulzbocks;21433444]Communism can never work even when it is perfectly implemented because you'd have to be massively stupid or completely brainwashed.[/QUOTE]
My personal belief is that communism doesn't work not just because people are naturally lazy, but because people are (Or try to be) fair.
In communism people produce what they can and get accoridng to their needs, my belief is that people should be rewarded judging by the difficulty+output of their work.
But then who judges that? People, and people can be blackmailed, etc etc...

Nice assumption dipshit. I care about many people, even people I don't know especially people like the kids raped by catholic priests, etc...
If I work hard to get some money and spend it on myself, I'm a bad person?
By your logic you should throw away your computer, your parents worked for it, but really they should've given that money to the poor. You don't really need a computer and communism is "each according to his need"
Communism was created to combat industrial-age capitalism.
If you actually read the communist manifesto and know what happened after the industrial revolution, you'll probably think communism is a great idea.
We've just been brainwashed to hate it because in communism, there are no major class differences and the rich in our society don't like that, so they tell us to hate our salvation. In a sense.

Well we don't have communism, do we cuntface, we have crapitalism
If you want communism, you need to throw away your PS3, PC, T.V., and most of you other recreational items and you need to start working in the fields or labor in the factories. How else can you provide for the good of you fellow comrades?
