When he was staying in the madhouse, after he killed his wife, he confesed in tears he was a fraud and had barely read a few paragraphs from The Capital. Worth bearing in mind.

There are certainly a number of ways to consider the “madhouse” confession of a murderer; to what degree that bears on his works is its own discourse and interesting in its own sense.

Ad hominem challenges to Althusser's work are like spitting in the ocean because you feel hot. Just swim, guy. He's a dead, spouse-murdering loony who happened to have done some entirely unrelated, brilliant academic work.
