The best way to learn about someone and their ideologies is to read abou them.

Answer 2

Democrat party?

Answer 3

Communism. Marx outlined a humanist conception of communism, influenced by the philosophy of Ludwig Feuerbach and based on a contrast between the alienated nature of labor under capitalism and a communist society in which human beings freely developed their nature in cooperative production.

Answer 4

He was either a political theorist and writer known for his description of systems of community like capitalism and his theories on communism... or the least talented Marx brother (Gummo and Zeppo found work for pete's sake).  What he stood for, I cannot tell you.  He was not a superhero.  So do your own homework...a simple internet search would have taken as long as you have spent writing your question and reading this answer (and figuring out what a Gummo is)

Answer 5

communism, but only in its ideal form.  Ideally, communism would be perfect because there is no classes per se, and government as we see it right now wouldn't exist.  

The USSR and early Chinese communism is a flawed version of Marx.

Answer 6

Economic equality and the end of social injustice through the termination of private property and the transfer of the ownership of all means of production (farms, factories, banks, etc.) to the state.  He wasn't fond of religion or the family structure either.
