Do you consider yourself a Marxist?

I'm curious to know who here would personally consider themselves a Marxist and what it means to be a Marxist for you, as I'm sure different people will have different views.

Mod Note:

Hi OP, it is a requirement of the forum that you set out your own views and/or provide substantive argument when opening a thread.

I will leave the thread open for a while, but you will need to provide something for other people to discuss first.

I dont truly understand marxism but I do think there are some benefits to such a system compared to others, of course there are negatives to it also, just like others to.
