    It sure is refreshing to see him arrive at the conclusion that the system as a whole is an irredeemable monstrosity and should be abolished, instead of pointing out every single individual flaw in the system without ever putting them in the context of the system as a whole. The system in this case being feudal monarchy rather than capitalism of course, but it is still refreshing!
