> His whole work, a pamphlet discussing massacring the bourgeoisie

It's not cool to make stuff up just to win an argument. It makes you lose the argument.

> In fact it was a part of Marx's work in much the same way as you are arguing it here: he was falsely accusing capitalist and bourgeoisie of mass surveillance, even while he was trying to do it himself. But yeah, Marx is Marx.

Yeah, Marx was trying to establish a vast spy network of ravens and pigeons, spanning the whole continent on Wakanda. /s

Both mine and your statements are equally true.

> Yes, the need for mass surveillance of the masses is actually in Marx and Engels's work.

Yeah, in the unpublished archives that only you have access to. /s
