Interesting thanks man 🤙
I wasn't familiar with Bakunin, but I realize that taking the means of production by force and then magically distributing it to the people is insanely unrealistic.
The main idea I have appreciated from Marx is this concept about the commodification of our desires. The way commercials try to sell us on crap we don't need by displaying a happy family for example. (I believe Marx wrote on advertising specifically, but I haven't read him directly so it could have been a contemporary)
