No, you're wrong again. Marx was a political journalist and a famous one, support for the Union was not assumed. Many wanted to support the slavers in fact. Marx coming out in support of Lincoln as a champion of liberty against slavery shows moral clarity and strategic prioritization. It was a great call.
Marx was 100% correct about profit coming from the efforts of working people. The capitalist class does not contribute in a proportional manner to their takehome pay. Many make several hundred or thousand times more than what their average employee makes; despite never even clocking in to a real job once. To whatever extent they do contribute, which is rare, they function essentially as corporate managers. They can be paid a managers fee.
Democratic socialism is fair because your co workers talk about the company's budget and who gets how much of it in pay. If the capitalist is really that important, there's no risk his employees wouldn't vote away his exorbitant profiteering privileges. But everybody knows that they dont contribute 1/100 let alone 1000x more than their employees do.
