    He’s not talking about the communist manifesto, he’s talking about Das Kapital. If you don’t care to read it there are YouTube summaries such as this one . If you want to get straight into the meat of the subject you can start from chapter 4 and if you think it’s all stupid take the 5-6 minutes to listen to chapter 7 so you’d at least know where socialists are coming from when they say capitalists are stealing your money.

      I know capitalists are stealing my money. I’m just not sure communists won’t. Communism isn’t a cure for human nature. Greedy pigs are everywhere and every system is corruptable. Even capitalism was once a good solution.

        Honestly I care less about where we end up. If we end up with actual communism (not this red scare shit we’ve been taught), that’s great. But if we end up with something else that’s beneficial to us all, that’s also great. I’m more interested in getting the socialism train going because I want a better future for my children.
