FOR MARX ON HIS 200th BIRTHDAY - Jersey Flight

On the History of Marxist Movements: the absurd notion that a radical humanist such as Marx would have anything to do with the totalitarian history of so-called Marxist Societies is totally unfounded. The conservative distortion (that Marx is responsible for Stalin and the like) is without justification. Marx indeed saw a better world, but not without the social consciousness to realize it. Though evil men may have used the form of his ideas (fallaciously) to justify their greed for power, these distortions never rose above barbarism, even though they claimed to transcend it. The thought of Marx is essential to all forms of freedom, both social and individual. In short, the thought of Marx is really about the comprehension and realization of freedom.

About Me:

Jersey Flight can be considered as a sort of left-wing version of Nietzsche. He is an iconoclast against all forms of cultural superstition, including elitism and academia. His intellectual interests include, defining and expanding the psychological qualities that account for advanced thinking, as well as collaborating a method for its culturation. He has repeatedly challenged intellectuals to transcend theory and fulfill their social responsibility to engage culture through polemics. His writing style is consciously concise; an anti-scholastic, he tries to communicate complex ideas in simple prose. He has written multiple volumes of philosophy that have not yet been released to the public. He is the Director of Interdisciplinary Research at the Institute for Advanced Dialectical Research.
