History

5 0
When Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii assumed the throne in 1891 and tried to reassert her sovereignty in the face of increasing foreign interference, she was deposed by a small group of American businessmen, with the support of the American diplomats and the U.S. Navy. On July 7, 1898, the Hawaiian Islands were annexed to the United States by a joint resolution of Congress. Shown here is her letter of protest to the U.S. House of Representatives, dated December 19, 1898.

What does marx view as a mechanism for keeping the working class distracted so that wealth stays in the hands of the upper class
Maksim231197 [3]
Religion.

The explanation given in your question explains the meaning of Marx's famous line that "religion is the opiate of the masses."   The full quote of what Marx said goes like this (in translation from the original German):  "<span>"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people."
</span>
What Marx meant was that the promises of religion were used to keep the poor from fighting against the gross inequality that favored the upper classes.  Religion taught them to put their hope in the next life rather than in this life.  He compared that to the way a drug user (of a drug like opium) finds comfort and escape through drug use, even though the drug doesn't really solve the problems of his present life.
