Incidentally, I stumbled on this while looking for a Marx quote about how representatives of the old feudal order falsely positioned themselves as allies to the lower classes by attacking the excesses of industrial capitalism. If anyone has that quote, please let me know.
For your quotes, try Chapter 3 of The Communist Manifesto
It is interesting to compare this with the section Ruling Class and Ruling Ideas in part I.B of The German Ideology. The following isn’t what you were asking for, and instead discusses how a class, when contending for dominance, must express its own ruling ideas and interests as the universal ideas and interests of all classes, i.e. of “all of society”. In actuality those ideas (of the bourgeoisie, aristocrats, etc.) are not truly universal though. This is written in the context of a new class, such as bourgeoisie, striking for dominance in an old order, such as the feudal order. But when the aristocrats try to fight back and maintain power, they will still aim for the same tactic. To express their ideas and freedoms as universal freedoms for the proletariat and as presenting themselves as guardians against the nefarious and harmful bourgeoisie, as explained above in The Communist Manifesto. Quoting from The German Ideology:
Love to see the German ideology, my favorite.
It’s one of my favorites too. Really lays down historical materialism and has a lot of bangers
That’s the one! Thank you.
That section in the Manifesto is a fun read. Some of the same struggle sessions 170 years later lol
Now find the quote about the shitter’s republic
You may be thinking of Chapter II of the Manifesto, Toiletarians and Cumunists the term “shitter’s republic” is actually a misnomer and Marx himself never used that term. Our monarchist would have known if he had actually read Marx.
That’s the one. Thanks for the laugh comrade <3
