“Communism bad”

“Why?”

200 year old tropes so ancient they were debunked by Marx himself

Of course, you go through the motions of explaining the most basic political concepts that could be grasped by skimming the cliff notes for literally any Marxist works

“Friedrich Engels? Is he like the president of Germany or something?”

It’s like a kindergartener trying to teach you calculus.

    For the life of me I just want some educated liberals who know their class position and I want them to be openly evil about it. That would be so much easier. I thought that's what self-identified neoliberals would be, but even they're very confused.

    You have to look for these among social democrats of the 90s and early 2000s in Europe. Many of them were former Marxists in the 60s, 70s, throwing bombs at cops etc. They adapted to throwing bombs at middle easterners and implementing radical market reforms (increasing the exploitation rate) to "fix" Capitalism accomplish capitalist goals.
