Karl Marx

You scored 55 realism, 44 rationalism, 61 materialism, and 27 atomism

Your philosopher is Karl Heinrich Marx (May 5, 1818 � March 14, 1883), an influential German philosopher, political economist, and revolutionary organizer of the International Workingmen's Association. Although Marx addressed a wide range of issues, he is most famous for his analysis of history in terms of class struggle, summed up in the famous line from the introduction to the Communist Manifesto: "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle". This does not mean that you are a communist. What it means is that you see not only the needs of the individual but also the society as a whole. You value material prosperity and the historical advancement of society toward greater and greater wealth, but at the same time you are concerned the the wealth of the whole benefits only a few. "We're all in this together," you might say, feeling a sense of destiny.
