Marx was just another YA fiction writer when you get down to it. Ahead of his time, sure, but he has nothing on Rowling.

    Liberals all claim to have finished Capital yet cannot describe any of Marx’s ideas. When they say they have read Marxists, what they probably mean is that they read 1984 and maybe looked at the first page of Capital once.

      That's more theory read than most internet "leftists"

        I’ll have you know, sir, that I looked at the first page twice.

        I have actually read parts of Capital but not the whole thing.

          Ho ho ho I'm sure you haven't studied the fine arts of marxian economics as outlined in Capital such as the question of what is 10 yards of linen worth!

        I’m too much of a dumbass to understand any of the applied math in capital. At least I’m self-aware I guess

          I have to consult math specialists who explain the math parts of it, so I guess I cheated a bit

              Well other than the head of the political economy department in my party, I have a coworker who was a math professor for like the super high level stuff. I just don't mention that it's commie shit or that it's written by Marx and just say its economics shit.
