Be aware that while the maga cult is trashing the democrats with a neo marxist moniker,
Steve bannon declared himself a leninist.

The difference between idealism (Marxism) and the misguided application of those same ideals ( Leninism).
What is notable that Marx never thought about the applications. His ideals were just that, ideals.
Like saying taoism is a religion, which I have been guilty of because it's being practiced. Not just an ideal. Yet their are no deities in taosim. So many don't consider taoism a religion.
So is Marxism not an application as Leninism is, as misguided as Lenin's application was.

@DeWayfarer Yes, it was as "misguided" as Ted Bundy's approach to women.
The concentration of power such as happened with Bolshevism leads to such "misguided" behaviors over and over again.

@irishmolly72 yet there are those that claim the two are so similar as to be the same. You see it even in some of the replies on this post. 😞
Not saying Marxism is workable. Just that it never was meant to be practical. It's an "ideal".
