Sure! If you wonder why, get out pen and paper and write down how they were different, and how similar.

Have you ever read any of Marx's work? Or are you simply spouting ignorant BS?

Personally I disagree with much of Marx's political philosophy but I have read it.

I am however a Marxist.... See Link

You believe Hitler was not. Perhaps Lenin and Stalin weren't either. There is a common thread in their governmental and economic systems, collectivism.

Do you agree with Ayn Rand's views on women? It's all of a piece, you know ...

Primarily, Rand saw women as people, individuals, capable as all individuals are of heroic activities. Her heroins may not have been models of modern feminism, but they were definitely individuals.

What do you think her view of women was?
