He analyzed capitalism (and religion), and his model predicted regular worsening crises when the market couldnāt expand further, leading to its eventual abolition.
He was employed as a journalist and published books on history and economics.
I swear libs just make stuff up that sounds right and then believe the shit they fantasized
You mean this one?
The Workersā Party of Korea (WPK)[a] is the ruling party of North Korea. Founded in 1949 from a merger between the Workersā Party of North Korea and the Workersā Party of South Korea, the WPK is the oldest active party in Korea. It also controls the Korean Peopleās Army, North Koreaās armed forces. The WPK is the largest party represented in the Supreme Peopleās Assembly and coexists with two other legal parties that are completely subservient to the WPK and must accept the WPKās āleading roleā as a condition of their existence. Kim Jong Un is the current party leader, serving as General Secretary of the WPK.

But like I said, hereās a bit of AI for you, feel free to fact check it:
Marx and Engels described communism as the final stage of human society, emerging after:
Capitalism collapses due to its internal contradictions (e.g., class struggle, overproduction).
Marx assumed this would happen naturally in advanced capitalist societies (e.g., Germany, UK) with strong worker movements.
Instead, communism was imposed by force in pre-industrial, agrarian societies (e.g., Russia, China, Cuba) where the conditions Marx described didnāt exist.
And as I said in my first reply: aussie.zone/comment/23631616
How ironic that China/Russia/North Korea etc instead decided to leap on it and realise that it sucks instead
or tldr: Iām sure capitalism will collapse any day now š¤£
Heās delusional, take him to the infirmary! š
by the way, I know this will be sad for you to hear but the soviet union collapsed! I know I know, itās sad, only 30 years ago, too soon š„²
Have you seen the USSR?
The Holodomor,[a] also known as the Ukrainian famine,[8][9][b] was a massive man-made famine in Soviet Ukraine from 1932 to 1933 that killed millions of Ukrainians

But during his visit, Yeltsin insisted on an impromptu visit to a mid-sized Texan supermarket called Randallās before heading to the airport. He wanted to see what the average American shopping experience looked like, without tour guides and diplomats to airbrush the experience for him ā and what he found shocked him to his core.
āWhen I saw those shelves crammed with hundreds, thousands of cans, cartons and goods of every possible sort, for the first time I felt quite frankly sick with despair for the Soviet people.ā ā Yeltsinās autobiography
On the flight home, he apparently said with his head buried in his hands, raging at the lies of Soviet propaganda and how his country was betraying the working class. An aid who was with him on that flight home reckoned it was when the last traces of Bolshevism left him.

Sounds fuckin amazing m8
They should show this to you kids still in school, this is a miracle of production, the humble supermarket, you donāt think twice about it, but in the USSR this was considered incredible
Have you seen modern Russia?
Yeah I seen it, I seen it trying to take back Ukraine real hard and Ukraine telling the USSR to fuck right off we donāt want your shitty little union, it sucked enough the first time around (see Holodomor)
despite not having the plundered wealth of the global south
yeah, they plundered all the lands they were supposed to liberate from the russian empire instead
Plundered them by building schools and homes.
Russian chauvanism was an issue with the USSR, but you canāt just pretend they were the same as their western counterparts who had entirely different social and economic pressures determining their actions.
Iām sure all those school and homes were really helpful in 1930s Ukraine. Oh, and canāt forget Poland. And all the indigenous peoples in North Asia were really grateful at still being part of the empire.
The same as their western counterparts? Well, if we go by Nazi collaboration and ethnic cleansing levels, it was pretty damn close. If we go by history rewriting levels, Soviets did so much of it there are even people today that insist they were a net positive. Such as yourself.
