FROM THE ONES WHO BROUGHT YOU "MARX: THE GERMAN NATIONALIST ADVOCATING FOR THE GENOCIDE VS. JEWISH NIGGERS" COMES THE FOLLOWING TREATISE: "ENGELS THE MALE-CHAUVINIST SEXIST"
Consider the following:
In "The Attitude of the Bourgeoisie Towards the Proletariat", chapter of "Condition of the Working Class in England", F. Engels cites the following letter supposedly written by a woman:
MR. EDITOR,– For some time past our main streets are haunted by swarms of beggars, who try to awaken the pity of the passers-by in a most shameless and annoying manner, by exposing their tattered clothing, sickly aspect, and disgusting wounds and deformities. I should think that when one not only pays the poor-rate, but also contributes largely to the charitable institutions, one had done enough to earn a right to be spared such disagreeable and impertinent molestations. And why else do we pay such high rates for the maintenance of the municipal police, if they do not even protect us so far as to make it possible to go to or out of town in peace? I hope the publication of these lines in your widely- circulated paper may induce the authorities to remove this nuisance; and I remain,– Your obedient servant,
"A Lady."
Engels makes the following comment:
It is infamous, this charity of a Christian bourgeois! And so writes "A Lady"; she does well to sign herself such, well that she has lost the courage to call herself a woman
Evidently, Engels is reinforcing a gender role.
While we the team behind the obviously high-quality scientific research piece "Engels the male-chauvinist sexist" firmly are opposed to feminism and believe that while women deserve respect perhaps their position in society is justified, we can't help but denounce this comment by Engels.
It is not a matter of questioning Engels' statement. It is not a matter of starting a genuine investigation regarding as to whether Engels may have been sexist.
Instead, this clearly means that Marxism has never been behind any movement for women's rights and that any attempt to involve it has only been run by only middle class hippies wearing Che Guevara T-shirts who have been attempting to falsificate the actual historical record of Marxism. It also means that there is no link between sexism and capitalism, and that there is no link between opposition to sexism and communism.
