I have been reading some very interesting, inspirational books that have made a huge impact on humanity. The Communist Manifesto, By Karl Marx and Frederick Engels. Capital, By Karl Marx. And The Marx-Engels Reader, which is a collection of Marx and Engels works. I find these books fascinating. Anyone else read them?

No I haven't. Care to tell us why they're fascinating rather than taking your word for it? ;)

Well, I think that Communism is an impossible form of government, but it would be one of the best if it actually worked. I also really like learning abut Marx's philosophy.

Explain, please, why and how you find communism so fascinating? It works well for the people pulling the strings, not for anyone else. And please don't get pissy about how I don't know anything about communism, you would be quite surprised.

i think you are confusing communism with capitalism..


Marxism is a huge topic in hundreds of thousands of books, whats not fascinating about it?

i would assume you grew up in a middle to upper class lifestyle and have little understanding of the injustice between the proletariat & the bourgeoisie. marx's communism has little to do with the communism of today.
