'the bourgeoisie will remember my carbuncles until their dying day.'

According to dermatologist Sam Shuster, at the University of East Anglia, Marxism is all down to Karl suffering from boils and carbuncles.

Shuster is qouted as saying in the British Journal of Dermatology,

‘In addition to reducing his ability to work, which contributed to his depressing poverty, hidradenitis greatly reduced his self-esteem.

This explains his self-loathing and alienation, a response reflected by the alienation Marx developed in his writing.’

This has got a few bloggers speculating that WW2 was actually the result of Neville Chamberlain's gout flare up on the morning of September 3, 1939.
