Here "Global Elite" is nothing more than a crude synonym for "International Jewry", and the typical European chauvinist's attempt to shield "one's own elite".https://twitter.com/alessabocchi/status/1008289619765547008 …

Marx did not ever "write against immigration", but the capitalist manipulation & exploitation of the working class on a global scale. Also the link you provide is actually written by Engels, & completely irrelevant, but carry on...https://twitter.com/alessabocchi/status/1008314242922090503 …

Alessandra @alessabocchiWhen Marxist-Leninists practice mental gymnastics to justify why they’re actually on the side of the capitalist ruling class. Little do they know Marx would disavow them immediately since he wrote against immigration, something they have yet to reply to. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1845/condition-working-class/ch06.htm … https://twitter.com/philgreaves01/status/1008312902284120064 …1 reply 1 retweet 6 likesShow this thread -

Engels reference is indeed relevant to Marx's discussion of the reserve army of capital. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1867-c1/ch25.htm …

Its not relevant to our discussion, only in that Marx & Engels position on the surplus army marries mine wrt immigration in Europe, in direct contradistinction to European nationalists like these Berlusconi creeps.https://twitter.com/PhilGreaves01/status/902888035376881664 …

Marx in no way supports immigration--he recognizes capital's reserve army as a tool to divide the proletariat. globalized capital is destroying the nation-state, as the nation-state replaced local economies with national markets. it is natural but futile that people oppose this.

What a dickish remark. Marx advocated the eventual abolition of nations you utter moron, thus his problem was not migration per se, but the capitalist mode of production & the capitalist classes exploitation of both migrant & domestic labour.
