Who do you think would win in a fist fight between Karl Marx and Gen. George A. Patton?

Question

Sure, Karl Marx was Russian (atleast i think he was, im not sure, nowadays the highest score in your history class dont mean crapola, thank you Mr. Liberal), but General George Armstrong Patton was the embodiement of the American fighting spirit. If you've seen the movie Patton, you know what I mean.

Answer 1

Of all the silly questions I have seen on this forum, this has to be one of the silliest. There are people here who have genuinely interesting, challenging questions, and yet you waste our time with your idiotic question asking people to speculate as to who would win a fight, as if that would determine the merits of each contestant's worldview (at least I assume that is what you are suggesting by your riduculous query).



I won't even bother to speculate, and actually the only reason I responded was to take you to task for your intellectual laziness. For instance, you blame "liberals" for your lack of knowledge as to Marx's nationality, when in fact, since you are obviously online, a moment's research could have answered that question. The fault is yours, and yours alone.



Finally, since Patton is such a hero to you, you should at least get his name right (another indication of your laziness). His middle name was Smith, not Armstrong. You are obviously thinking of George Armstrong CUSTER, which, again, you would have known if you had bothered to check your facts.



In the future I would suggest you either do your homework before you post a question, and even then ask a substantive question, or restrict your questions to the "Singles and Dating" section, which, judging by your profile, seems to be your main area of interest.

Answer 2

For the record, Karl Marx was German, not Russian (at least the city of Trier, where he was born, is now German though at the time it was in Prussia, a country that no longer exists).



I think Gen. Patton would beat the living daylights out of Karl Marx, who was somewhat roly-poly rotund and more intellectual than physical. Patton was a noted equestrian who competed in the Olympic games and prided himself as being a complete warrior, not just an armchair General. I don't think it would have been much of a contest.

Answer 3

Karl Marx was German. Marx was a philospher; Patton was a soldier. I think Patton would win.

Answer 4

I pick Patton hands down He would have fought with more aggression because of Marx being communist. Marx was actually a German. He wrote his 1848 Communist Manifesto in Germany and would later die in England.

Answer 5

Marx was German. His nationally doesn't really make a difference though, because Patton would make him his *****. I'm pretty sure Marx would fight dirty, but Patton would overcome .

Answer 6

Karl Marx wasn't Russian you Jackass he was German. Nonetheless, Patton would kick Marx's ***.

Answer 7

A philospher vs. a soldier, this is a no brainer, Patton would win hands down.
