I’ve seen at least forty different books namedropped since i rolled in here. Most right wingers don’t bother reading even enough theory to tell you that the Communist Manifesto isn’t actually the foundational text of communism, much less know who gramsci is or the title of a single one of Mao’s poems.
Your garden variety internet right winger couldn’t consistently fake being communist if they tried.

Real talk: I literally called out a chud on this and gave the reason why it's not the foundational text of Marxism (and why The Principles of Communism is clearly a much better candidate for this title.)
Do you know what his response was? He literally invoked the death of the author. For a non-fiction text. I'm not even kidding.
That's tantamount to giving a driver incorrect directions while reading a street map and then defending yourself by saying "But art means whatever the viewer decides it means!!"
