          No they are straight up the paper of record for the Forces of Evil. If Sauron had a paper delivered to his house every morning it'd be the Economist.

          And it's a particularly shameless, unself aware, boorish, British kind of evil, too.

      Lenin dismissed the Economist as “a journal which speaks for British millionaires”.

                This is true in the small but also the large:

                As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say we are tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We know that when the people understand, they cannot help but follow us. ― Thomas Sankara sankara-salute

                I am always happy when someone encounters something interesting for the first time transshork-happy

      Marx based his understanding of Capital from hate reading the economist.
