What point are you trying to make here? Marx’s writings were based on his observations of factories and industry in England at the time, among other things.

Marx was not the origin of communism. Which is why he was credited with the Marxism not communism.

The context for his writing wasn’t simply factory conditions being so so bad he created an ideology from whole cloth.

This entire thread was in response to police stealing in the US, and someone responded referencing communists. Given they context, they were clearly talking about Marxism. The guy you responded to explicitly mentioned that. And then you go off on some other interpretation of the same words, clearly misinterpreting what they posted to argue some other point.

Assuming someone misspoke to support your point is a bit much.
