Talk:Moses Hess

freemason
according to the German version M. Hess was freemason (Grand Orient de France). Should be mentioned?

I'm not sure I understand the bit about "opium of the people". In the (far better) Opium of the People article on Wikipedia it is correctly attributed to Karl Marx. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opiate_of_the_masses Or is this article trying to say that Hess came up with it and then Marx wrote it down? --bakert

I deleted this badly phrased sentence: "He also is "credited" with Marx's notion that Jews were in love with money." Whoever wrote it can add it again if it is rewritten to express what Marx really wrote about Judaism, and how Hess influenced that decision. References & citations are generally needed.

It is "common" rumour that nazi-leader Rudolf Hess was grandson of Moses Hess?? I guess it is not trye but what is the truths I think it should be mentioned any case in this article.

Copyright violation? NPOV?
The text here is almost identical with the introduction to Rome and Jerusalem on the site Zionism on the Web, which carries the notices "Copyright 2008 Zionism on the Web - May be copied only with acknolwedgement (sic) by linking to this page and to http://www.zionismontheweb.org" and "(c) Zionism On The Web, 2005-2006. - You may reproduce most of our content on your own site provided you include a link back to us. This includes articles where we've received explicit permission from the author both to republish at Zionism On The Web and to pass this permission on to others." While there is a link at the bottom of the page the debt to this Website isn't clearly acknowledged. In turn this seems to me to raise the questions of copyright violation and NPOV. --Mia-etol (talk) 03:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

In "Rome and Jerusalem": The future political power of Judaism; Moses Hess referred to when he wrote in 1862! "No nation should be indifferent to the fact that in the coming European struggle for freedom, the nations may have another country as friend or foe.

Moses Hess: "In the borderlands between East and West, live in Russia, Poland, Prussia and Austria Millions of our brothers who intimately believe in the recovery the Jewish kingdom and ask for it in their daily Passionate prayers. " --115.87.68.80 (talk) 07:27, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Irrelevant material?
This material has no listed sources. But more especially, it's not clearly relevant to this article. It seems to say what some friends or acquaintances of Hess did, not what Hess himself did.
 * After the failure of the revolutionary war in summer 1849 in Palatinate and Baden and the fall of Rastatt, the last refuge of the revolutionaries, the artillery commander Fritz Anneke (whose adjunct officer was Carl Schurz) and his wife Mathilde Franziska Anneke, who were old friends from Hess' Cologne days, close to Hess' friend Andreas Gottschalk and leading personalities of the Communist Club in Cologne, found temporary refuge in his home in Strasbourg before moving on to the United States.

I'm going to delete it. I'm also deleting the unsourced quotes. 67.21.71.102 (talk) 22:12, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

Apparently heavily opinionated line
"But Marx and Engels would become well known for their fickle and pugnacious approach to fellow socialists who showed insufficient agreement with their own form of socialism."

Predicating to racial struggle goes right against the core of socialism... Of the workers managing the means of production.

Nationality of Hess
That Moses Hess was French is absolute rubbish. He was German! Bonn might have been administered by the French, but the population was always German including the Jewish population. He was an important leader of the German 1848/49 revolution, and should be considered one of the national heroes of Germany. All other articles (including the French!!!) write that he was German. It speaks volumes that his last wish was to be buried in Rhenish soil in the Jewish cemetery in Cologne.
