Husky, following is most accurate description of Marxism that I've found. It was written in 1995.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Ram Swarup <b> The missionary-colonial attack was reinforced by another attack - Marxism. </b> Its source too was Europe and it was even more Eurocentric than regular Imperialism. <b>It used radical slogans but its aims were reactionary.</b> It taught that Europe was the centre and rest of the world its periphery - not by chance but by an inherent dialectics of History. Marx fully shared the contempt of British Imperialists for India. He said: "Indian society has no history at all, at least no known history. What we call its history, is but the history of succesive intruders."Â He also said that India neither knew freedom nor deserved it. To him the question was "not whether the English had a right to conquer India, but whether we are to prefer India conquered by the Briton." This also became the faith of his Indian pupils.
In India, Macaulayism prepared the ground for Marxism -<b> early Marxists were recruited from Macaulayites. </b><b>Marxism in turn gave Macaulayism a radical look and made it attractive for a whole new class. </b><b>While Marxists served European Imperialism, they also fell in love with all old Imperialist invaders, particularly Muslim ones.</b> M.N. Roy found the Arab Empire a "magnificient monument to the memory of Mohammad." While the Marxists found British Imperialism "progressive", they opposed the country's national struggle as reactionary. They learnt to work closely with Muslims both during and after Independence.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
