On the anniversary of the death of Karl Marx, who lived his entire life
as a "little gentleman" and valuing his work and authoritarian
contribution of new states, we want to spread this text:. ---- "Remember
Helena Demuth (1820-1890), THEIR SERVANT. The girl was a proletarian of
poor origin recruited by the Marxes at the age of 15 for domestic
service. ---- She spent her entire life in the Marx house, and appears
in the correspondence of people who visited them. ---- Apart from this,
Marx secretly made her a child (he abused her), being a married man and
to avoid "shame." , Marx entrusted the baby to his friend Engels, who
was single.
Who raised the boy (he put him to work in his tool factory in Manchester).
And when Marx died, he also took care of Helena (he made her work in her
house).
Helena's remains were buried at the request of Marx's daughters (Eleanor
and Laura), in the family tomb (since she was part of it). She left £95
to her son Freddy.
Marx's arrogant sexist ways were also directed against Bakunin and
Antonia on another occasion:
In the first workers' international, Bakunin confronted Marx and his
followers who did not hesitate to ridicule his positions regarding the
emancipation of women, as part of their arguments to try to break the
influence of Bakunin and the anarchists in the International
Marx used adjectives against Bakunin and Antonia (his romantic partner);
pointing out Bakunin as "little man" or "hermaphrodite", when both
signed the Program of the International Socialist Alliance.
He ridiculed Antonia for "daring to sign the document" and pointed out
how bad it was that Antonia had lovers and that Bakunin said nothing
about it and also cared for her and acted as a loving father to her
children.
Let us also remember that Marx celebrated the death of his own mother,
since for this reason he was going to collect her inheritance...
"... Servant or wife, it is on the woman, now and always, that the man
counts on to free himself from the work of the home. But at last the
woman also claims her part in the emancipation of humanity.
She no longer wants to continue being the beast of burden of the house.
She is already enough with all the years of her life that she has to
dedicate to raising her children. She no longer wants to continue being
the cook, the cobbler, the sweeper of the house!..."
