Ben says that Marx ripped off Hegel. He says that Marxism is an ideology rooted in materialism instead of ideas. Ben uses a mocking, condescending tone when speaking during most of the video.
Minute 2

(False consciousness is not a term that Marx ever used and there is only 1 record instance of Friedrich Engels using it. Also Ben used the term wrong.)

Ben says that communists want to own the means of production. Ben says this is impossible because surgeons don't own the people that they do surgery on and Teachers don't own the students.
Minute 4
Ben says communism forces you to work job that you don't want and capitalism let's you work where ever you want.
Minute 5
