I'm a Marxist, but I've Got Intellectual Arrogance.
I decided to read Marx in chronological sequence from his very first works of economics, which are called the economic and philosophical manuscripts of 1844. He wrote those in a garret in Paris after he'd been expelled from Prussia. And so this is where his passion for economics and humanity came from. I mean, he wrote love poetry to Jenny von Westhaven. That's first published works for pretty much in poetry. We'd probably fight like crazy. But you think Marx is feistier than you? He was feisty, but feisty with, he could be arrogant. Like I'm, I've got intellectual arrogance.
