If he's such a communist, why does he have capital letters in his name?

Name checks out... I've never seen one check this far out either, maybe a record
Wait until you hear about his other famous book
Das Kapitalist
Who’s the guy in the old-timey photo? I wish there were something pointing out who it is; totally confused here.
That's santa, you just don't recognize him because the picture is in greyscale so u can't see his iconic red and white clothing
So then he's a capitalist, all about consumption.
It's not slave labour if they're elves!
I think that might be Friedrich Engels. It's difficult to say without more information.
Was Jesus Christ a Christian?
No, he was not. His followers were.
Must've been, I see all these paintings of him wearing a cross.
And that cross grew and grew and grew, until one day ... that cross was wearing him!
Everybody thinks he was a communist, but in reality he was a Mall Santa 🤯🎅🏻
Santa is the most communist of communists; giving gifts to all children just for being "good".
This is how I started questioning the existence of Santa, even kids I knew were little bastards got all the good gifts.
Also giving coal to the "naughty" kids, so they can spend at least one day warm during winter
Idk man so many people write about Nazism who aren't Nazis.
Maybe Karl just really liked writing about communism? Maybe we're all wrong about this Marx guy?
Looking at the logo, he obviously was just another misunderstood farmer-carpenter.
No thats stupid he was a Marxist lib.
Antifa larper really
Liberal authoritarian
Isn't that a bit narcissist?
I believe this is what's known as "materialistic revisionnism"
That's what this book I have says.
He just wanted to treat women as property of the state, and came up with a very elaborate cover story for doing so
Own the means of human production ! /s
Ah yes, incelunism.
