Hess was, moreover, not the first person to argue for the abolition of private property, nor the first to formulate a political platform with the word communism, neither was he the first person to use the word communism. Communism was termed by diffuse groups arguing for a communal organisation of society in France and England during the mid 19th century - etymologically generated out of ''Commun, Communion'' and ''community.'' It can not be pinned to one person.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20201218153511/http://s3.amazonaws.com/arena-attachments/1385668/2a0d6d0b045feef2adb6ae76ec9a2c92.pdf?1509502303</ref> First attested in writing - meaning '''first record of political principles''' - by John Goodwin Barmby in 1841, founder of the utopian, christian, London Communist Propaganda Society.<ref>https://www.etymonline.com/word/communism</ref> People arguing for the abolition of private property (as Engels put it, the meaning of communism in one sentence), predated the 19th century.

Marx is commenting on the refugee crisis of poor farmers from Ireland due to the negative effects off industrialization. He sees these negative effects as an inevitable part of capitalist modernization, so he is in fact not arguing for anything.<ref>https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1853/03/04.htm"Society is undergoing a silent revolution, which must be submitted to, and which takes no more notice of the human existences it breaks down than an earthquake regards the houses it subverts.

Six men met on Jekyll Island: Nelson Aldrich, Benjamin Strong, Henry P. Davison, Fran Vanderlip, Paul Warburg, and A Piatt Andrew. Of the six, only Paul Warburg was Jewish. Indeed, Paul hailed from the Jewish Warburg banking dynasty based in north Germany, was a partner at Kuhn Loeb & Co., a Jewish investment bank in New York, and acted unofficially as an emissary of the Rothschilds. Warburg was invited because he had experience on European central banking. | |||
Most the other players in the room, however, were representatives of the two heavyweights of American finance at that time. Nelson Aldrich was a republican whip, the most powerful senator of his day, and had business ties to Morgan. Benjamin Strong was head of Morgan's Bankers Trust, and Henry P. Davison was a senior partner at J.P. Morgan and Co.. Frank Vanderlip represented the Rockefellers, and was president of their National City Bank of New York. A. Piatt Andrew was a Harvard economist, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, and tied to Aldrich more than anyone. Neither Rockefeller nor Morgan represent a Jewish interest, and these groups were those that would (see below), go on to own majority shares in the Federal Reserve. | |||
We are left with typical boring Marxist truth, the all-powerful jew is deflated, and behind it found the plain old Finance Capital. '''Verdict:''' False. | |||
