Marxism really was like the quantum physics breakthrough of the social sciences

I liked how they used the analogy in that episode that Marx is to socioeconomics as Darwin is to biology. It's something I've said when trying to persuade science-minded but liberal family members to give consideration to leftist ideas, and I'm surprised I don't hear it used a lot more often.
