    Marx spent much of his time talking about the Tendency for the Rate of Profit to Fall, issues with the Money commodity, consumerism, and more. Marx liked Capitalism over Feudalism, and Socialist markets over Capitalist ones, but ultimately he did advocate for abolition of Markets, in the traditional sense.

      Right, and Marxists are characterized by their complete lack of reasoning skills, so they have to blindly parrot everything Marx has ever said, especially the stuff that obviously doesn’t work out. This is actually core marxist thinking.

        Marxists are indeed characterized by generally accepting what Marx said. Additionally, being anti-Market isn’t exactly something that “obviously doesn’t work out,” no Socialist state has developed to that level yet.
