😂 The three volumes of Capital alone are about 2,000 pages, then there are Marx’s other works, and Engel’s works, and Lenin’s works, and onward. Hundreds of thousands of pages.

Das Kapital is the most cited book in the social sciences published before 1950

Marx is one of the most quoted thinkers ever, and this comes even from the newspapers which are hostile to him lol.
