[Marxism] Re: why did Marx reject moral?
Everything that Marx wrote was about the moral relations between human
beings and how they are grounded in the relations of production and
class society.
All you have to do is look at Marx and Engels's historical writings,
which are enfused with moral judgments.
From Aristotle to Locke, there is more about moral issues in Marx than
in other historically important thinkers, except for those who were
predominantly religious writers. They presented their analyses of the
human condition as hard-headed realists looking for practical solutions
to social problems. In general, on those occasions when they do defer
to a higher morality, it is when they introduce God or the gods.
