Yes, X, I have read a great deal of Marx. I did not say that it does not matter what they believed. But it is fruitless to argue over whether or not they lost sight of the implications of their relativism. You assert that they did because they did not behave the way that you think relativists should. I say that that does not prove that that they were not relativists, because relativism does not necessarily entail tolerance. I can be a relativist, understanding that there is no ultimate ground for my preferences, and yet impose them because they are my preferences, and the way I would like the world to be. Thus, it was useless to continue the "yes they did, no they didn't" phase of the argument.......
