>A specter is haunting Europe - the specter of communism.
Why would they start their manifesto this way? First of all, it's cringe. Second of all, it makes it seem like communism is scary and bad (people don't like being haunted).

leftypol recruiters and agitators, i'm thinking of getting Marx's parisian manuscripts (economic philosophic 1844)
how are they? is it a good book?

They are a good place to start with Marx's political economy. Good as an introduction to the Grundrisse and Capital. The notes on James Mill are good too. The only thing I would recommend not reading is Theories of Surplus Value unless you want to die.

It scares the capitalist pig starving the masses for those sweet tingling shekels.
It’s called the red scare for a reason, Italy turned fascist because the king shat his pants after the Romanov’s extermination by the communists.
Mussolini and Hitler played on this terror to rise up and become Europe’s dictators.
Fear is a tool, whether you find it cringe is inconsequential. Scared people are easy to control since you can offer them security just to obtain their support. I’m talking about both the scaredy-cat bourgeoisie fearing the proletariat will seize their factories aka means of production and nobles/landlords losing their lands as the state expropriates everything to redistribute among the peasants and the people.

It was prescient. It was published at the start of 1848. By the end almost every great power was rocket by massive revolts and riots.

It's okay i guess. But it's not much compared to Das Kapital, volume 3.

Theories on surplus value is killer. It's actually what's happening currently on the world dying economy, but nobody gets a clue. Marx didn't waste 2000 pages on surplus value because he was a giga nerd. He knew that there was the key, the explanation of Capitalism internal contradiction.

not him but there are letters from rabbis thanking marx for refining the doctrine by which the gentiles shall give up all their property, published along with other letters by the revue de paris literary journal after he died. then there's also the fact that wall st funded the bolshevik revolution and paid for lenin to travel around the world. that said, i think "the jews" is a misnomer and an easy strawman (hence why you used it to defend your disgusting and cretinous ideology).

btw to put things in perspective, the average mexican teenager on /pol/ has a better understanding of these things than you do. how embarrassing...

it's because they are atheists and atheists are deeply clinging to their fantasy that there is is something hidden and something lurking, ready to take over the world.
It's the judaic affiliation speaking, it's deeply narcissistic. Atheists can't think that they are not interesting people and just make up stories that somebody is about to control them in from the shadows.

Don't be silly. One of the most underrated theories is the politics of alcohol.

Drink too much = nazi
Drink too little = commie

Hegel drank shittons, and was basically a fascist by today's standards. The key is to drink just enough, one or two glasses of wine or the occasional beer or two

Marx is one of those people who has a emotional desire for cataclysm. You see many of those people on this site today, and many out in society. The ideology isn't what drives it, the desire is what comes first. The person who joins antifa, who believes that a race war is coming, is no different than a person out every night looking for bar fights. It's an externalization of the inner dissatisfaction, they want to fight their demons, but they don't have the tools to give them form in their own minds. An edgy proclamation appeals to these kinds of people who want to destroy the world

It was written on the eve of the 1848 revolutions, although communists played a minor role, there was panic on the continent and in America about communists, fourierists, owenists, pick whatever epithet you fancy. Of course, communist meant something very different back then. It's main face was August Blanqui, an unhinged lunatic neo-Jacobin who encouraged ordinary people pumping their boss full of lead or flinging bombs into opera houses where richfags go.

At least Christians are statistically more likely to be happy and get married and have kids. You're using the tradwife thing as a legit strawman too btw. It's a literal meme, obviously everyone knows it's not true most of the time.

I'm not even Christian or part of a religion, I just have way more respect for religious people than i do for juvenile fools like you. Go back to r3ddit, fag.
