Adam Smith Writes Karl Marx

Text on the meme

“Bro stop digging in yo Butt” - Adam Smith, in a letter to Karl Marx Marx never replied.

A split-image meme shows portraits of Adam Smith and Karl Marx above a fake quotation claiming Smith told Marx, “Bro stop digging in yo Butt.” The joke comes from anachronistically putting modern slang into a historical letter and pretending Marx never answered, making it useful as an absurd reaction to someone being overly fixated on something.
