Let us all remember that famous Marx quote, "Feudalism is awesome and we should resist the change to capitalism" (lemmy.world)

Repost inspired by seeing a self-proclaimed communist commenter recently muse on how much better monarchy was than capitalism.

The entire first chapter of the Communist Manifesto is practically a grudging praise of capitalism. It even makes Marx's attack on capitalism in the same document sound somewhat hollow.

First chapter? Of a manifesto?? You may be wrong.

Chapter? Section? Subdivision? The document is divided into sections however you call them.

Btw, I recommend reading it even if you are a staunch opponent of communism. Simply because of the huge historical significance.
