Marx didn’t think that you can simply get a democratic majority and tax rich peoples wealth away via taxation. He considered that no viable political strategy but advocated revolution.
You ignore the political actions that Marx advocated. In dialectics a thesis needs a contrasting antithesis to allow for synthesis.
Stalin also didn’t kill people because they were evil. That’s besides the point. The action that resulted in dead people were justified because they move history along.
The earlier question was about whether Marx would be in people’s Overton window. I think that if someone thinks “well, Marx had a pretty good analysis of the problems of capitalism, though he was mistaken about the best solutions”, then that counts as Marx being within the window.

I don’t think anyone would say that Bush was wrong about everything to the extend that he’s outside of people’s Overton window.
