It was the first serious attempt to deconstruct social and economic systems and rebuild them using scientific methods, not surprising how many things Marx and Engels got right. Even the elements I would quibble with were probably borne out of lack of familiarity with the new paradigm of knowledge.
Marx actually thought this was all there was to know about the social construction of economies.

I could tip the scale against Marx's fat ass with one easy reference.

Marx was all about those things, too Reese. Well, except the whole creator delusion, but he was writing a few generation later and learned people were already moving past that superstition.

Marx is the father of Social Democracy which is the most pragmatic and useful ideology there is, it's left leaning centrist in it's form it both takes care of the needs of the people and the needs of those who wish to trade and create wealth.

The entire basis of Marx is Democracy. The idea of a tyrant running a government that controls everything is totally opposite of what he had in mind.
He did believe in the capacity of government to make decisions that it is not good at making and assumed that the will of the people could be transfered to the government more effectively.
