Soft and Hard Marxism
Soft Marxism is for college undergrads, high school students and actors known for their good looks. Hard Marxism is reserved for professors and those employed by philanthropic foundations. The professors are tenured glibly to cut down young people who question theories as facts. The skilled professor will actually diminish his young opponents to the point that other young people will adopt views foisted upon them. You will identify Marxists by their foreign cars, genteel beards, rustic houses and expensive clothes, usually of nature fibers and leathers. The Marxist will only dine at restaurants of good reputation that is also rustic and enjoy a glass of wine with lunch. Hard and soft Marxists vacation in foreign lands, oblivious to the CO2 emissions (that they insist must be eliminated) of Jumbo Jets. The soft will do some eco-tourism, while the hard will take on European jaunts at university or foundation expense, as they bemoan the oppression that it must have required to build grand mansions or to patronize the great artists. See if you can spot the Marxists where you live.
