“During the start of Giovanni Gentile’s intellectual career before he became the “philosopher of Fascism”, he wrote two monographs on the Philosophy of Karl Marx one in 1897 and the other in 1899. These essays were written less than two decades after Marx’s death in 1883 and show even in his early 20’s that Gentile had a keen understanding of Philosophy and the movements of his time.

What perhaps makes Gentile’s criticism of Marx so interesting is that he and Marx are both coming out of the same tradition of German idealism and both had a deep understanding of Hegel while they likewise both had their criticisms of Hegel and other German idealists. So Gentile understands Marx better intellectually than nearly all modern so-called anti-Marxists do (and as a side note: most Marxists as well) and isn’t just going to try and debunk the Communist manifesto by professing the so-called greatness of capitalism to maximize an individual's pleasure while warning about the dangers of “big government”. What makes Gentile’s insights and criticisms so refreshing from the glut of low IQ takes on Marxism is that he really takes Marx at his own terms and shows the integral flaws of Marx’s philosophical doctrine just by referencing material Marx himself has written.”
