Marx did not have a concept of "whiteness". Indeed, we see in the writings of Engels, him treat the Irish as racially distinct savages, who are nonetheless victims of exploitation. Where it regarded the negro, Marx and Engels also affirmed their humanity. Engels saw that certain subsections of Eastern European types are "reactionary" in essence, and I don't doubt that Marx and Engels would have supported Israel over Palestine in the last judgement. Bigoted, yes - but "white supremacist", no. This has no meaning in Marx's time.
To the same effect, Hitler was not a white supremacist, either.
