Karl Marx a villian? First of all, Marx did not advocate superior genetics/race or discriminate against people's aesthetics.
You know what Marx did do though? He provided an alternative to the capitalist theory and how capital should be dealt with, etc. Most "communist" implementations that we have seen in this century is a result of mis-interpertations of Marx's texts and just plain human errancy.
Was Marx responsible for what happened to Russia? Nope, he himself detested Russia. What basically happened is that Lenin overthrew the monarchy of the old russia and later had internal battles between federal organizations, other socialist/communist parties, etc. Then here comes Stalin overthrowing Lenin, blah blah blah rest is history.
Have you read the communist manifesto? Have you taken a class in marxist economics?
If you answered "no" to the first question, then don't even bother posting. What gets me is when people critisize the philospher and crucify him for having a different idea. Want to critisize how its implemented? Fine go ahead.. its your right, and I encourage you to do so.
