    Yeah I've only ever heard a "pro"-Marx anti-Engels stance from liberals who heard it in a college class but have never actually read Marx.

    I mean it'd take a tremendous amount of study to form a grounded opinion on a potential schism lol

      Which reminds me of my favorite: one who claimed to be able to tell "where Marx died and Engels took over" in the fucking communist manifesto

      It's also what happens when idealists read the basic texts and assume Marxism is like their ideology and that it is prescriptivist. Marx said I'll reach a classless, moneyless society if I follow these rules - we need to vote these rules in! That evil tankie Engels talked about authoritiarianism - does he want a revolution?
