Karl Marx - The British Rule in India, 1853 (Voice)

A short commentary on British Rule in India by Marx written on the 10th of June 1853, in which Marx details the smashing of Indian society and her productive capabilities so that British mill-owners and financiers (who Marx calls the moneyocracy and millocracy) could attain capital and new colonial markets.

I just discovered this channel and I will certainly be returning. As I have ADHD, I listen to history videos such as these while doing chores, playing games, etc.

Thank you for this video, the quality is far above what can be expected from such a small channel. You will certainly grow in the future, however I suggest adding visuals and or additional content types in the future.

Just remember folks, without the millions of sepoys, opportunistic merchants/tradesmen, artisans, ministers, princes, rajas, and emirs, the British wouldn't of had a single chance at taking the subcontinent. Funny though that the united Indian identity wouldn't even exist without British colonialism, then again Great Britain wouldn't exist without Norman colonisation.

If every person would listen/read the major works of Marx, they would understand the core essence of Marxism and finally open their eyes to the degeneracy and regressive system that they currently revel in. Most people, including unabashed anti-marxist-leninists, ironically claim to value all view points yet outright refuse to even glance at seminal works by Lenin, Marx, Engels, Ho Chi Minh, Mao, Stalin, Castro, Bakunin and Guevara. It is no surprise that most Eurasian countries that experienced socialism have outperformed every bourgeois nation, except for religious fanaticism that teeters on the verge of fascist terrorism and grandiose social mismanagement. My comment may seem tedious and arbitrary to the so-called liberals, but I hope that those who are not blinded by imprudence and prejudice will grasp the crux of my statement. May we all be illuminated by scientific socialism, as delineated by Marx, Engels, Lenin and Ho Chi Minh.
