>religion is the opiate of the masses Fuck yes. Does /his/ agree?

>>1826767
No. Opiates, Marijuana, Alcohol, Sex, Video Media, and Lies are. Marx hated Christianity specifically and religion in general because his father outwardly converted to Lutheranism for business. This is also probably why he despised capitalism.

>>1826767
If misused yes,but the moral values it often provides enriches society. Take a look at communist Russia when it was atheist,it completely ruined the population ,even today. People have no shepard who can guide them. Now if the shepard is leading them to the slaughter house that's another story. I would say that if people were more intelligent there wouldn't be a need for religion.

"I love huge black dildos"-Marx

>>1826801
Huge black dildos are a commodity produced by capitalism that replace the need for black workers by automating their bodily functions and alienating man from self actualization.

>>1826767
His teachings are the same Opium.

Communism was actually invented by the Jesuits in the South American reductions starting Paraguay that built the Spanish Empire, so communism was a well funded beast when it was exported to Russia and China following the temporary banishment of the Jesuits in SA under Dominus ac Redemptor.

Rasputin was probably a Jesuit and the desert cloud fairy cults have infiltrated every continent today, doesn't matter much the flavor anymore. Actually the more factions the better to play off each other. You throw them into a sandbox and they will fling shit at each other every time despite the similarities.

Marx, in concentrating on humanity's interaction with and relationship with the natural world, saw in religion an escape from truth

Religious leaders encouraged people to turn away from the oppression their leaders imposed on them. Those very leaders who oppressed them offered their subjects an escape into a belief system that justified that oppression as a necessary fact of life.

>>1826767
No, monotheism is.

>>1826782
Marx didn't hate Christianity at all. He was raised Lutheran and took a sympathetic, if critical view of faith.

>>1827668
I really hope this is a high level meme

Reminder that the full quote is actually a praise.

> Religious suffering is, at one and the same time, the expression of real suffering and a protest against real suffering. Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.
> The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness. To call on them to give up their illusions about their condition is to call on them to give up a condition that requires illusions. The criticism of religion is, therefore, in embryo, the criticism of that vale of tears of which religion is the halo.

>>1827812

>marxism is for poors that envy the rich

The poors haven't been marxists in the west for decades, what the hell are you on about?

Marxist nowadays are 90% middle or upper class white kids.

Atheism started it and got back what it deserved.

>"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, the soul of the soulless."

When he used the phrase "Opium of the Masses", in the same 1844 text, he meant a painkiller, not an addictive vice.

>>1828747
Except Atheists used facts that triggered Christians since they were presented in an arrogant and condescending fashion. You can't just set your impersonation of Atheists onto capslock and act like you know how they responded. Don't be such a moron.

>>1828747

You poor thing. What harshness you must endure

Religion is just as pointless as anything else. I see no reason to bash religious people as a result of this, provided they're consistent.
