Here is a link to the 1890 piece by Engels. It was not a letter to Marx (who was deceased) but an article that appeared in Arbeiter-Zeitung, No. 19, May 9, 1890. https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1890/04/19.htm Jim Farmelanthttp://independent.academia.edu/JimFarmelanthttp://www.foxymath.com Learn or Review Basic Math

In an 1890 letter, Friedrich Engels chastised his collaborator for his obsessive Jew-hatred, reminding him that “anti-Semitism betokens a retarded culture, which is why it is found only in Prussia and Austria, and in Russia too. Anyone dabbling in anti-Semitism, either in England or in America, would simply be ridiculed.” Is the 1890 a typo, or worse. Engels could not have written a letter to Marx in 1890, as Marx died in 1883. ken h ____________________________________________________________ Sponsored by https://www.newser.com/?utm_source=part&utm_medium=uol&utm_campaign=rss_taglines_more Joe Biden Chooses His Running Mate http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/5f330a2ea5e45a2e1d37st02vuc1 Cops: Rape Suspect Freed for COVID Kills Accuser http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/5f330a2ec08eba2e1d37st02vuc2 Bible Reading Was a Little Too Prophetic http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/5f330a2edf9c4a2e1d37st02vuc3 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
