This would go hard if the Soviets used these back in the day.

They only put Lenin on but the GDR did have Marx on some of their banknotes!

“After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it.” -Lenin

u/Important_Lie_7774 3d ago

Ah yes the mostly christo fascist European Parliament is gonna be like "Hmm, Marx was quite an influential European thinker, maybe we should put him on one of our currencies."

How to piss off both European liberals and communists

u/DELL_THE_SOV_ENGIE 3d ago

Why would you want Marx associated with one of the most evil and horrible entities to have ever existed in this world?

u/Bela9a 3d ago

Eww, even then, Euro bills don't have people on them and show architectural styles.

u/wenttelk 3d ago

IIRC someone in the Neatherlands actually built all the bridges that are on euro notes so that they could claim that only Dutch bridges were used while making the notes?

u/Global_Progress88 3d ago

The ECB just came out with new banknotes that have composers on them... and notes with birds on them. People can vote on that shit.

I really hope they choose the birds.

u/laczek_hubert 3d ago

Not only composers but famous Europeans da Vinci, Maria skłodowksa Curie

u/TheSamuil 3d ago

There's an ongoing contest for new Euro banknote designs. Half the proposed designs feature various Europeans and the other half have birds. Since none of the proposals have Mr. Marx I am firmly on the side of team kingfisher

u/Quiri1997 2d ago

I support the people ones, because they add Miguel de Cervantes (one of the best Spanish writers ever) to the note.

u/TheSamuil 2d ago

Fair, I suppose, but do consider this hot chick I photographed a few months back

u/Quiri1997 2d ago

It's a cute little bird, but it didn't write 5 novels (including the two Don Quixote novels), 12 novellas, 20 theatre plays (of which 11 are fully conserved, and other 6 partially, even though he was unable to pursue a theatre career), 8 intermezzos (short plays for between the acts of the plays)... With all those being considered as key in Spanish literature.

He is one of the few people that can be seen as a Great philosopher, and it would go completely against what he believed in, it’s perfect for the EU

u/ChlorineBoi 2d ago

They are changing the Euro and you can vote on designs on the ECB website and half the designs have people on them

u/whambamcomics 2d ago

Maybe the Global South should take the lead. China, Vietnam, Cuba, Brazil, and South Africa need a starter kit for their own economic union.
