This video is very enlightening.

It kind of explains why Marxists are so hostile to socialist movements that originate from actual middle class workers.

It's a fallacious argument.

No, it is not because it is not an argument, lol.

Sure it is.

Starting at the 1:25 mark, the narrator states his intent to show that Marx envisioned a personal dictatorship for himself. The narrator intends to prove it by looking at 3 future historical figures.

And?

Preaching to the choir fallacy.

No one advocates for ‘Marxism,’ ‘communism,’ ‘socialism,’ or any other such ‘ism.’
 
Seems to me the risk of violence would be directly proportional to the level of authoritarian power of a government.

Human nature. People are not cattle.
That would explain why the land of the free has the highest incarceration rate in the world.

So you think that our prisons are filled with people who committed violent crime?

Wow. Okay.

And, of course, we're talking about the type of violence people commit when an authoritarian government has gone too far.

I do stand corrected, though. Some people ARE cattle. Point taken.

Operative term is 'show'.
These are illustrations of assertions that are not rational arguments.

But yes, the author does make a good *case* of circumstantial evidence that Marx was an amoral, hedonistic, violent, thug, just like his followers have been.

A fake War on Drugs is the primary cause of that crap.

End the war and pardon the offenders is the obvious solution until the legal systems participants become the primary investors in a private prison system.
