so according to Marx,
as you say, but why did
Marx posit this conclusion,

Some say humanism,
saying he didn't take into account
the material world, or the
whole congress about competition

but I think that premise misses the whole point
entirely

since I think all beings are pretty smart
I think wild animals are smart ---
even overly domesticated ones

like dogs and cats

and most humans
