British/English philosophers are materialists and utilitarians.

They are obsessed with money and finding the easiest ways of getting more of it.

They are not spiritualists, like the French or Germans.

Marx's critique of Judaism applies to British philosophy.

"What is the worldly religion of the Anglo? Huckstering. What is his worldly God? Money.…. Money is the jealous god of the British Empire, in face of which no other god may exist. Money degrades all the gods of man – and turns them into commodities…. The bill of exchange is the real god of the Anglo. His god is only an illusory bill of exchange…. The chimerical nationality of the Anglo is the nationality of the merchant, of the man of money in general."

It's no surprise that Marx even thought the way he did. He grew up in a materialist society that lied about its materialist slant. So Marx thought there was nothing wrong with materialism, but the world just needed "real/honest" materialism.

The British created Communism by being liars, essentially.
