Why are Marxists so fucking stupid?

There's nothing that sells like an easy solution.
Why do you think Libertarians exist?

Resource competition is a game played by the rich and felt by the poor. Historically, working men and women played essentially no role in instigating conflict. Throughout the Middle Ages, it was exceptionally rare for European farmers to actively participate in wars in their own country.

it should be 'conflicts within and between classes' then, not 'conflicts between classes', if we want to reflect most actions by nations are done by rich in the local nation to the rich in another land.

You do realize that conflicts among farmers were most of the times the casus belli by which various lordships in the Medieval ages could conquer each other?

You thought you said something Smart but you're just a sad little autist
marxism is unadulterated autistic religious dogma which zooms in on one issue within the frame of human existence and denies the existence of all other collective human stimuli as some kind of conspiracy created by the faceless evil outgroup rich people
people are tribalistic like chimps and will war over territory for their tribe's benefit? bourgeois divide and conquer, race, ethnicity and tribe is a social construct manufactured by the capitalists
people claim to know god/s and want to enact political change in the world for said deity/ies? they're just cynical exploitative divide and conquer spook-creators who want to control the working class
men and women have different roles in society? obviously this is just capitalist exploitation pigeon-holing people based on arbitrary things like sexual dimorphism. gender is a social construct.

Probably because they were too busy farming, providing resources for their countries armies knowing full-well beforehand that is where they will be going.
