Its not Engels that is a capitalism lover (in the eabove comment) its Marx.

Kinda, at least compared to feudalism, though he also hated it and wished it abolished. Capitalism's advent was both progressive, and resulted in incredible immiseration for the new proletariat as compared to their earlier yeomanry and serfdom.

I just wanted to point out that Cassandra said that Marx was a capitalism lover, not Engels as you replied.
