if you remove Marx's views on religion and you still end up with a system the relies on the compliance of humanity. THIS is the distinct failure of communism and socialism. for these systems to work, all must buy in. Those that do not want to be a part either suffer the wrath of the "tyrrany of the majority" or they must forsake all and leave. Both choices are bad ones.
Any good one may find in a counterfit system, does not belong to the counterfit. Rather, it belongs to the valid system it seeks to replace.
We dont speak of the benifits of a counterfit One Hundred Dollar Bill. "Look how green it is!"
We recognize that reguardless of how exact it may LOOK/FEEL it still has NO VALUE.
I guess, for your next trick you are going to tell us how Socialism has worked in France? LOL!
