L'chaim Marx

No word yet if I will be required to instead be a femailman, because of woke

Anyways I'm super glad to not be at the mercy of my micromanaging Chipotle boss and my unemployment checks and will actually be doing something useful like delivering medicine and packages in addition to a bunch of advertising garbage instead of putting together bowls of plain white rice with 4 sides of sour cream for 2 and a half hours a week

Karl Marx, born on this day in 1818, was a foundational political theorist and journalist associated with the philosophy of Marxism.

Among Marx's best-known texts are the "The Communist Manifesto" and the three-volume "Das Kapital", in which he set out to define and explain the behavior of the capitalist mode of production.

Marx's political and philosophical thought have had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic and political history, and his name has been used as an adjective, a noun, and a school of social theory.

Marx's critical theories about society, economics and politics - collectively understood as Marxism - hold that human societies develop through class conflict. In capitalism, this manifests itself in the conflict between the ruling classes (known as the bourgeoisie) that control the means of production, and the working classes (known as the proletariat) that enable these means by selling their labor power in return for wages.

Employing a critical approach known as historical materialism, Marx concluded that, like previous socio-economic systems, capitalism produced internal tensions which would lead to its self-destruction and replacement by a new system known as socialism.

It's normal don't worry about it

From the Lenin biography by Robert Service

Whoever thought that one up gets the gold star.

Latin "Burgus" (fortress) -> Frankish "burgz" (fortress, watchtower) -> Old High German "Burg" (castle, fortress) -> Hamburg (a city's name) -> hamburger (someone from Hamburg, a type or meat patty from there, a type of sandwich made with said patty.)-> English "burger"( A variant of said sandwich)

Latin "Burgus" (fortress) -> French "Bourg" (small town, historically the fortified part of a town, often more expensive because safer and better situated) -> French "bourgeois" (A person living in the Bourg, a wealthy person, a capitalist)

"Burger and "Bourgeois" are cognates. Eat the rich.
