I don't like spending this much time arguing against campism but they just keep talking at me.

A picture of Gus Friv captioned "I'm cool with communism because I don't believe it has to be authoritarian; you're cool with communism because you don't mind if its authoritarian; we are not the same."

    Yeah, there's nothing authoritarian about overthrowing the entire superstructure and killing anyone who tries to stop you, what a crazy idea!

    It's incredible what wild opinions people have about marxist theory when they've onviously never read any.

    "He had different phases in his life, some more philosophical some more economic" what the actual fuck is that even supposed to mean

    Agreed.

    I feel like tossing out a thinkers' weaker work is an act of charity.

    I wouldn't want anyone to hold up my dumbest takes after I'm dead. So when I say that I think that article is dumb and we should just pretend that Engels didn't write it... I'm saying that as a compliment to Engels.
