Ugh.
Soul-crushing in its hatred of human nature, and irritating in its misconstruing of economic maxims. Beginning with a vast oversimplification of Adam Smith’s theory of value, Marx proceeds to describe, for ants, bees and other insectile collectivists, the kind of economics he wishes had evolved among humans. He then offers–via a distortion of the Hegelian dialectic, which is itself a distortion of logic–a historicist, “scientific” account of how the “proletariat” will inevitably rise and take control of the world.
Conspiratorial, ignorant, brutally authoritarian. Bring antidepressants.
I don’t know, maybe I’m just in a weird mood, but this review made me happy. It’s just so garbage, starting strong with human nature, going on to say that his bit about the ants and bees (literally in the first few pages) is what he thinks society should be like, and peppered with unnecessarily large words that nonetheless still leaves his criticism utterly vague and superficial.

Big “I skimmed the first 30 pages” energy from this one.

A public forum based on reviews and designed like a YouTube comment section? No thanks. I don’t want to suffer.

Though now I’m supremely curious.
The intersection of people who post GoodReads reviews and the people who read all of Capital is tiny. This is just a bunch of liberals and tech bro libertarians drooling on themselves after reviewing Gambo and The Hobbit.
Finally, a place where I can dump all my positive opinions about Capital despite never reading it.
That’s the guy that never worked a single day in his life. Responsible for the deaths of tens or even hundreds of millions of humans on the planet. His legacy continues to this day with Critical Race Theory and trans paranoia copying his evil anti-White ideas, still claiming human lives.
there’s no brain left here, it’s worms all the way down
