The number of times where it becomes clear that a Marxist is arguing from a conclusion is too high to be ignored.

That's just how Marxism is, he claimed that our course of economic history is the only way it could have gone with a single data point then concluded that the current system (in 1850) would imminently collapse.

I don't know why anyone lends credence to his theories
