Marx's Thirty Standing

Taya 2022-01-23 08:04:20

The movie "Young Marx" is drawing to a close, and the assignment submission date for "Communist Manifesto" is approaching, and Marx, who cannot write a draft, collapses a bit.

Marx and his friends complained to each other at the seaside. Marx and his fellow friends complained that he had written too many propaganda pamphlets, but he had not written a "big book" about physics and chemistry.

He wrote a book and said that after passing on, he became famous, gained glory in the dirty old world, and was recognized. Although this may not be the real ambition of the 30-year-old Marx, it is the ambition of the film director and all the young audiences hit by the movie.

Engels seemed more rational. He knew that propaganda was the first step in building a new world, and that propaganda should be easy to understand. He told Marx: "If we don't summarize a simple and easy-to-understand book, then all this will be wasted. "

Marx was a little emotional out of control, probably because he was rushed by the deadline. He suddenly begged and said to Engels: "I'm almost 30, Friedrich, I have no money and energy."

In the old world, we actually understand the difficulties of the 30-year-old Marx too much. A young man who is talented and proficient in several languages, got a Ph.D. degree after graduating from a bachelor degree, has a happy love and a happy marriage, is simply a successful textbook winner in life.

But what kind of life does Lao Ma lead? Poor, unable to pay the rent, being driven all day long, running around, unable to raise the family and making ends meet, the worst thing is that because of writing propaganda brochures all day, there is no way to earn a seat in the academic world.

Standing at thirty, Marx is thirty years old, and there are two children and one woman in the family.

Just go to a mainstream magazine, you can also become a middle class, choose a city to die, and accompany a person to whitehead. Isn't this the life pursuit of many people, perfect love?

An Xinxin has been engaged in academia for a few years, and I will interpret Hegel carefully and publish two academic works. It is not impossible to go back and find a faculty post. Maybe he can be surrounded by students like Proudhon at the age of forty.

Is there anything wrong with me? Friedrich, I am 30, I am out of money and energy. I want to support my family, Friedrich, please, don't push me.

In the distance, Jenny and Mary are walking.

Look at my wife. She used to be such a beautiful and elegant little princess. Over the years, she has been with me all the way and wandered. She has been driven everywhere and suffered all kinds of hardships. She doesn't know where to stop next. The feeling of being poor and seeing no hope, Friedrich, can you understand?

I'm thirty, Friedrich, I'm tired, let's stop.

As a close friend of Marx, doesn't Friedrich know this?

However, Friedrich is also very aware of other things: you Marx can withdraw right now, but can the hundreds of thousands of peasants in Ireland who are starving to death withdraw? Can pneumoconiosis workers beaten up in German factories for defending their rights withdraw? Can young workers who live like machines without seeing the future in a London rental house quit? Can a 16 or 7-year-old girl in a French town who has no money to go to school and was deceived to Dongguan to quit?

The cruel gears of capitalism have already been activated. Marx can hide in the small building. Where does the proletariat go among the millions of gears?

The times have forced us here, where do you retreat, not the times itself?

The world is so big, where is not the world. Where is there no exploitation in the vast arena?

There is no way to retreat, only to call a new historical subject.

You may not really think that the same Marx will submit the "Communist Manifesto" at the Congress of the Communist League in a few months, officially kicking off the proletarian historical drama;

It is the same Marx, who will completely abandon the life of Little Bourgeois after his first year, and throw himself into the wave of forming a workers’ party to engage in underground struggles, and create the First International;

It is the same Marx, relying on countless pamphlets, news reviews, and a few academic works, which will provide a guide for the working class for more than 100 years.

Even when he was finally able to write a theoretical book, he continued to participate in the labor movement and continued to produce propaganda reviews, articles and pamphlets.

He did not finish the academic work in the end.

But he finally completed his mission.

The rest will be continued by the millions of proletarians all over the world, and will be continued by Luxembourg, Lenin, Gramsci, Guevara, Castro, Deng Zhongxia, Jiang Jie, X, Marcos...

Human destiny...

Not long ago, a senior man found a good job. Apart from being happy for him, he was naturally mixed.

Everyone has to hand in his own answer to the test of history.

Fortunately, this answer sheet is not a lifelong test.

No one can retreat, because the proletariat is still there, in our own bodies.

The seaside complaints between Marx and Marx were quickly over, and Marx’s thirty years old was also over. They returned to the overnight study room and wrote on the manuscript: A ghost, a communist ghost, wandering in Europe...
