In order to achieve this perfect society Marx needed two things. According to Skousen, "First, the total annihilation of all opposition, the downfall of all existing governments, all economies and all societies." "Then", Marx wrote, "I shall stride through the wreckage a creator!"
The second thing Marx needed was a new kind of human being. Skousen describes Marxist Man as follows:
"He [Marx] visualized a regimented breed of Pavlovian men whose minds could be triggered into immediate action by signals from their masters. He wanted a race of men who would no longer depend upon free will, ethics, morals or conscience for guidance. Perhaps, without quite realizing it, Marx was setting out to create a race of human beings conditioned to think like criminals. . ."
Homo-Marxian puzzles all those who try to work with him because he seems irrational and therefor unpredictable. In reality, however, the Marxist Man has reduced his thinking to the lowest common denominator of values taken from nature in the raw. He lives exclusively by the jungle law of selfish survival." [My emphasis]
"Marxist man has convinced himself that nothing is evil which answers the call for expediency. . .Homo-Marxian proposes to become the ultimate governor and god of the earth and then of the universe," states Skousen.
Homo-Marxian has reversed the direction of history. He has turned man against himself.
