Esoteric Marxism

Esoteric Marxism is a far left communist ideology that takes the religious-like nature of some Marxist movements to another level. It embraces the accusations of religious devotion instead of rejecting them, and incorporates supernatural and monotheistic elements into Marxism.

Esoteric Marxism believes that Karl Marx is a prophet of God himself, who gave him the instructions for humanity to liberate themselves. It also considers Engels, Lenin, and Trotsky as additional prophets. It also has many figures similar to saints or imams, like Rosa Luxemburg and Che Guevara.

The start of civilisation and subsequent emergence of class society is seen as the 'original sin', which brought untold pain and suffering to humanity, but that this was part of God's prophecy, as by designing humans to evolve large brains, He intended that mankind shall eventually establish an advanced socialist society.

By establishing socialism, human beings can make the milleniums of suffering worth it, as they become ultra-advanced, semi-god like beings who live in equality, freedom, and happiness, and can join God in shaping the universe.

Esoteric Marxism's rhetoric shares many similarities with Christianity, with the stress on total devotion to the faith and attacking heretics who stand in the way of mankind and god.
