Marx,+Freud,+and+Darwin

This space will be devoted to three looming philosophical giants of the 19th century: [|Darwin,] [|Marx], and [|Freud.]

These men were all white, old, and very smart. Each one sort of helped elevate mankind while also sort of making them look sort of foolish. Darwin said we were apes, Freud said we acted like apes, and Marx said we were greedy pigs. They grew up in the ashes of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution, and put the nail in the Catholic Church. We weren't rational. We were ruled by sexual desire and the death instinct. We were ruled by the death instinct and sexual desire because we're just barely out of the jungle as a species. We're animals and we have animal minds. Because of our minds we are the paragon of all animals, as we are so proud to boast, but in reality, our limited intelligence has produced highly flawed, unjust goverments and economies.
