it shouldn’t be allowed to continue.
You give this person too much credit. No way in hell they’ve ever actually read Marx. They saw a twitter thread about how Marx had “some good ideas, but his ideas are impractical at larger scales” and based his entire worldview off of it.
It’s also what happens when idealists read the basic texts and assume Marxism is like their ideology and that it is prescriptivist. Marx said I’ll reach a classless, moneyless society if I follow these rules - we need to vote these rules in! That evil tankie Engels talked about authoritiarianism - does he want a revolution?

Yeah I’ve only ever heard a “pro”-Marx anti-Engels stance from liberals who heard it in a college class but have never actually read Marx.
I mean it’d take a tremendous amount of study to form a grounded opinion on a potential schism lol
Which reminds me of my favorite: one who claimed to be able to tell “where Marx died and Engels took over” in the fucking communist manifesto
lmao both of them wrote that together when they were like 28 years old
