You said "Marxism" as if that is one well defined thing you can get from reading Marxs' books or pamphlets.
It is discussion, reflections and at times conclusions. In the beginning it is clear that he is only discussing ownership of the means of production. Your ownership of your house or books is not taken into account, only the ability of a person to own someone elses means of production. And he is very clearly writing about factories.
Later, in Das Kapital, he (and by 'he' we are probably talking about Engels) is branching out in discussing complete removal of private property. But in the original German I think it is more likely that the property that is referred to, again and again, is land.

The fundamentals of marxism aren't up for debate, anon. Marx is quite clear when it comes to defining capital. If you agree that ownership of the means of production results in class society and the contradictions that emerge, then that does leave only one solution-- the abolition of capital.

Nah. That requires a leap that I dont think I agree is neccessary.
'Capital' is just tokenization of effort for the purpose of trade, and I think that can be done without allowing for the problems described by Marx.
A fundamental change might absolutely be neccessary, but I think the basic ideas of cash and ownership are important for the functioning of a society. The transitive properties of tokenized effort is what allows for experts to efficiently do what they are good at rather than having to grow their own food.

Absolutely not. It is true that most capital contains within it dead labor, but again Marx is quite clear to distinguish this
