"This state and this society produce religion,
which is an inverted consciousness of the world,
because they (state and society) are an inverted world...

The abolition of religion as the illusory happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness.

To call on them to give up their illusions about their condition is to call on them to give up a condition that requires illusions.

The criticism of religion is, therefore, in embryo, the criticism of that vale of tears of which religion is the halo." 

- Karl Marx

Do you reckon.  ?
Like all they would have to do is lie ,
And shit IDK make stuff up.

They could probably  make  few bucks out of it to . ?

To go along with 
Your fake religion

Karl Marx was a hypocritical bull-shitter.

Everything is an illusion.

And everything is just infinitely smaller bits.

That eventually become not there.

But they must be still.

Religions are one way of looking at it.

And opium is another way of coping with it.

Marxism in sociology is a key conflict theory that believes capitalist society is based on inequalities between the bourgeoisie (ruling capitalist class) and the proletariat (working class). The economy is the base of society, whilst all other institutions form the superstructure. The struggle for a more just social balance continues.
