Karl Marx - The Young Marx | Political Philosophy

Karl Marx's early writings offer a humanist vision of the alienating effects of modern commercial societies and the possibility of a more well-rounded and enriching development of individuals in a post-capitalist world.

Sweet!
Now do Bakunin!
Kropotkin, and Rosa Luxemburg are also very interesting figures, especially Luxemburg who's political philosophy widely differed from Lenin's.

Marx did not see the French Revolution as leaving the economic domination in society unchanged. The French Revolution, according to Marxist theory, was a bourgeois revolution - one that overthrew the ruling aristocratic classes and replaced them with the ruling bourgeoisie - the start of the capitalist system.

Very interesting lecture. I finally understand many concepts I couldn't quite figure out

Marx was the most famous political writer among Marxists

I really like your videos. Thanks for all the hard work that goes into making content. Your soft spot for Marx really shows and is quite perplexing however.

Have you read The Sane Society by Erich Fromm?

This was really good. The only critical comment I have is that speaking the subtitles the way you do is a little off putting and jarring. Apart from that though, this is really excellent content. I’ve been looking for more philosophy YouTube channels that speak a bit more clearly on philosophy, rather than being mostly theatrical (I love Olly and I love his new content style, don’t get me wrong, I jay also miss the more straightforward stuff)

But as for the subtitle thing- maybe have a look at other educational type content creators, and see how they do transitions from one part to another. Like I said though, that’s my only criticism of this video, it really was very excellent 😊

lol, you ignore his desire to burn down all social structures or his Mephistopheles obsession . You are not as intellectually honest as you pretend to be. Your bias taints your work. Thanks for exposing yourself!
