Marx himself wasn't exactly a "violent" person insofar as he called for the beheading of capitalists and actively organized armed insurrections, but I think he understood that revolution would inevitably bring with it violence.

And that in such a conflict, the working class must be prepared and organized to respond and win.

Marx was a supporter of the Union and believed that they were just in their conquest of Southern states to defeat the institution of slavery. He and Lincoln corresponded many times throughout his presidency.

Interesting. So to get back to the original question, does that make the ideology violent? Like I said about the other ideology referenced, Nazism, the goal is violence towards those deemed as inferior or other. So are they both violent, and Nazism just far more violent, or are they both violent in that violence will be a means to the end?

It's a pointless question since all ideologies are violent.

An anarchist interpretation of that question would be that violence exists so as long as a state apparatus exists.

Differing ideologies simply dictate and prioritize what violence occurs, for what reasons, and to which people.

I dig it. Thanks for the nuanced answer. @hatmam12345 this answer is fantastic.

i agree, if i understand correctly. ideologies are only as violent as their rhetoric and how violent people choose to make them

I mean, no, they're all violent. One would consider socialism's public ownership of the means of production to be violent because it would involve the redistribution of wealth and seizure of some private enterprises, others would consider capitalism to be violent in how it exploits the value of labor in order to generate a profit on the behalf of capital and creates a system whereby you must sell your labor to capital to live.

they are all violent but for example Nazism is inherently violent while say liberalism is less so, because the rhetoric is less violent so the actions taken dont to proceed in the ideology's goals dont need to be as violent

the only redistribution of wealth under socialism wools be transferring the MOP from the bourgeois to the workers

Fun fact.

There are only 2 genders.

And your born with said Gender.

Getting a gender change is denouncing god.

HE made you who you are.
