I think the only thing that's really changed between 1886 and now is they've come up with a lot more sophisticated, diverse, and totalitarian ways of controlling us and destroying our world. Marx's main shortcoming (aside from his followers) is that he never could have predicted satellite TV, etc.
Speaking of that "save me from your followers" thing, I was thinking - imagine if in like 200 years Marx's followers have made him the prophet of a new religion.
