    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

    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!!"
