Marx was extremely simple minded when it came to human nature. That’s the problem with all utopian ideas and all idealistic philosophers and economists: the assumption is always that humans will behave in some idealised way. While in reality greed, cruelty, corruption, treating other humans as inhuman or slaves is part of human nature. Not the only part of course, but probably the most important part when looking at the very long list of disaster we call history.
