Why? Wouldn't it make more sense to ask in a community Marxists regularly participate in, to get multiple perspectives? By asking on Lemmy.world, the answers are going to skew Liberal heavily. The impact of that is that there are numerous takes that heavily misinterpret and misframe Marxism, particularly with refetence to the State, which I outlined in my top level comment here.
It just seems to me that if you want to understand something, you must investigate it from every direction to find a correct answer. This doesn't mean the answer is a mix of everything, or a balance of it all, but that by shutting out the instances with the highest concentrations of Marxists on Lemmy, you end up with constant errors from liberals trying to interpret history based on views of Marxism gathered from Wikipedia articles.
I have seen on these Marxist instances biased opinions,And for lemmy.world being liberal idk.
Checked your profile I saw your Marxist so oh well
All opinions are biased. You must recognize what the bias is in order to interpret its validity. And yes, I am a Marxist, I don't hide that in any capacity. That's why I put it in my profile.
