Karl Marx. The founder of Marxism
he was born in may 5,1818
mark your calender!
on may 5,2018, ıt is Marx's 200th birthday
the ones who cares about his thoughts, ideas and philosophy
are issued banknotes with a face value of zero euros in honor of Karl Marx.
you did not heard wrong.
zero valued euros
just think about it. 200 years ago from today,
you have plenty of articles about how unimportant the money is and
how it exploits people.
then one day they will print euros with zero values
to prove your point in a symbolic way.
how meaningful, how valuable act of behaviour!
but in this video I will try to show you how ironic it really is.
 
 
 
 
 
the worthless money in the world
 
 
this creative idea is came from a tourism agency called Trier
Trier is the name of Karl Marx birth city.
in the resources Trier is known as the oldest town in Germany
the city Trier has one of the characterictics
I have to say this
in the memory of Marx's 200th birthday
they used Marx's figure in the traffic lights.
lets talk about money
why does the money printed for his memory worth zero?
one of the most fundamental sources of capitalist regime
which the author of Das Kapital Karl Marx critized, is money.
The money payoff your labour is never given as much as you deserve.
so; in this processed system, every step you take is money
 
 
 
 
Marx seriously thought over the money theory.
but marxists did not pay attention to his theory in first years until
Suanne De Brunhoff's Marx's Money Theory book
the people who read this book understand that without really comprehending his
money theory, they can not understand marxism.
Karl Marx says about money:
I dont like money because it is the reason we fight.
isnt it so simple and wise
how the world become without money?
a world where no wars and hunger, with renewable sources..
all the world's sources are accepted as common heritage.
Those utopian visions are not coming from me,
the executives of Venus project are saying this.
we are actually familiar with moneyless places.
we loved watching these people for years
who are these people? The smurfs.
 
 
 
have you pay attention that the smurfs dont use money?
because of his grey beard and his red beanie, they are even identify Papa Smurf with Karl Marx.
everybody puts their labour on everything then Gargamel
represents the capitalist, aggressive power
and even it is said that the initials of Smurfs are stand for
Socialist Man Under a Red Father.
we came to conclusion of this:
 
it is so clear that social structure of the smurfs' is
reference to the marxist regime
to make Marx's the dream of moneyless world in a symbolic way
Trier company printed 0 valued euros.
this is where the irony happens.
if you want to have this 0 valued euro,
you have to pay 3 euro.
 
yes, capitalism is a bitch.
when you want to remember a person in the dream of moneyless and equal society
to sell money printed to honor Marx with money.
It is so ironic to benefiting from capitalism when to make reference to Marx's critism about capitalism
