This is fatuous fluff. Might have been an idea to mention gulags, Pol Pot, Marx's anti-Semitism, Helene Demuth, etc, etc, ad infinitum.https://twitter.com/TeenVogue/status/1142999562031915008 …

Professor Stangroom, if there is one idea of Marx that I like, it is his view on human nature: "to cooperate in a process of collective, freely chosen labor" This quote is taken from your excellent book "The Great philosophers."
Sure, there's obviously something to that. But it tends to distract attention away from the darker aspects of human nature - our tendency to viciousness, etc.

I like the point Slavoj Zizek made in his debate with Jordan Peterson about socialism: One can use almost any ideology to justify terror. Peterson also made a good point that there will always be social inequality in a large scale society. Capitalism also requires collaboration.
