In this episode, we journey through Karl Marx's extraordinary and often tumultuous life. We begin with his early years in Trier and formative university days as Hegel's "angry apprentice," then follow his ventures into radical journalism. Witness his world-changing partnership with Friedrich Engels, the creation of the Communist Manifesto, and his long, arduous exile in London. Discover the complex man behind the groundbreaking work "Das Kapital." Explore his influential role in the First International, his passionate reactions to the Paris Commune, and the profound personal struggles he faced throughout his life. Finally, we trace the complex, frequently debated, and surprisingly viral posthumous career of his ideas – from the ideological battlegrounds of the 20th century to his ongoing relevance in our modern age of "algorithmic overlords."
