European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker will give a speech on 4 May in Trier to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Kark Marx's birth in the German city. He was invited as a Trier honorary citizen. "Nobody can deny that Karl Marx is a figure who shaped history in one way or the other, and not speaking of him would come close to denying history," a commission spokeswoman said Friday.

What is his end game
Nobody can deny that Adolf Hitler is a figure who shaped history in one way or the other, and not speaking of him would come close to denying history.
First China gave us a giant Karl marx statue that no one wanted and now this reptilian comes here to preach his bullshit. Just let us be irrelevant
Fuck Juncker. Long live Marx.
I dunno, that statue looked pretty dope

How can one man be so based
I fear this shit will attract commies from all over the country to study here instead of Berlin
Fuck off nazi
Soviet Union 2.0
>and not speaking of him would come close to denying history
This has to have been deliberate.
why does he do that?
Karl Marx din do nuffin
Yeah I guy who wrote books and Hitler can be judged the same
>former marxist states are now strong bastions of whiteness, tradition and christianity
>capitalist countries house half of Africa with cities full of driveby shootings and aids
Marx was right
might be a bit of a difference between honoring an extremely important philosopher-political economist and honoring the guy who started the most destructive war in human history and took part in the extermination of more than 10 milion people
You're either in favour of ignoring important historical figures or not.
>implying EU isn't a capitalist organization meant to benefit the European bourgieosie
user, this is about honouring important historic figure and not every important historic figure deserves to be honoured. Marx does, Hitler doesn't.
Regimes with Karl Marx' ideology killed over 100 million people. Over 70 million in China, tens of millions in the Soviet Union, a million in Yugoslavia and so on.
Asserting neo-Liberal dominance over wannabe fascist dictators
The EU serves international high finance, not the bourgeoisie.
Leaving this here for the indoctrinated fans of Marx

BASED!
It would be dishonest to attribute that to Marx since he didn't have any part in the political repression present in communist China and the USSR. He was long since dead by that time. As for marxists in general, you'll find a deep divide in judgement of the socialist regimes and a prevalent negative attitude toward their atrocities.

Except that Marx literally advocated for the totaliarian practices of those regime And marxists may claim to be against such practices carried out by those regimes but their very own ideology is not, so that's like saying "oh, I'm a Hitlerist but I'm against the idea of ethnic cleansing" when Hitler literally advocated for that.
As for Molybased's video, any actual point you want to refute?
I wish they started praising based Friedrich "kill als Slavs greater Germany now" Engels instead of this old kike
What?
Not exactly, but I definitely see your point.
Maybe these top leaders are closer than one might think, this is how you'd jokingly great a great friend. But I doubt that's the case. Juncker shouldn't have acted like this.
I wish we were in the EU and had pics of Engels and Marx in Skopje city square :(

He’s a dumb apologist who misses your simple point
I just love these Western morons who never experienced communism in practice, yet praise it like the best ideology ever.
Friendly reminder that Stalin was a leading figure of Marxist theory, and wrote numerous books on the subject.
>b-b-but it wasn't REAL communism!! fuckin nazi!!!
Kill yourselves.

>in one way or another
>not speaking of him would come close to denying history
We jumped pretty quickly from "Marx deserves to be talked about whether he was good or bad" to "Marx was good and deserves to be honoured."
Juncker is awesome desu.

Not even an Orbán fan, but I'd gladly break his teeth for this
Yeah, the fact that there are people who could think Orban came off worse here than the autist slapping people in the face explains a lot about why the world is the way it is.
Whatever little beta magyar. Your leader gets slapped on stage in front of the entire world who think your nations is a bunch of weak losers now
Let's see who will laugh 50 years from now, when half of your country will be under the sea, and the other half ravaged by your precious shitskin hordes :^)
Like it or not, Karl's principles have shaped the world into what it is today. Even if most countries don't follow his system, if his theories hadn't been created the world would be drastically different.
