    But why struggle for it? If it’s going to happen anyways, may as well do what’s best for yourself and not stick your head up.

      Because I’m not a lib like you.

      But seriously, the point i was making was not about inevitability. It was making a distinction that Marxism as an ideology is based on scientific principles (this was a differentiation from early utopian socialists). We believe in theory, practice, and refinement of theory informed by practice.

      While i as an individual believe that communism is morally correct, that belief is immaterial from the truth that Marxism illuminates

        So how does the truth Marxism illuminates determine policy decisions?

          Can you rephrase the question? Are you asking how Marxists in positions of power, like in the former USSR or China use Marxism to determine policy?
