The UnCommunist Manifesto: A Message of Hope, Responsibility and Liberty for All.

Rate this book
Humanity is at a crossroads. Never have we had so much potential to do good in the world or literally transform our civilization into transnational gulags.
Almost 175 Years have passed since the Communist Manifesto was written and circulated by Marx and Engels.

Some statistics point to it being one of the most widely read and distributed works of political science and economics. However, the core ideology has led to hundreds of millions of murders worldwide at the hands of those who fervently 'believed' and 'reformed' society by its decrees.

It's about time something was written to help challenge and potentially unwind some of the moral, intellectual, social, and economic damage done since.
We wrote The UnCommunist Manifesto to answer these questions and much more.

We emulated the format and length of the Communist Manifesto, so it is a sharp, concise and lucid read, but the message contained is a reminder for people to reach upward and become better versions of themselves instead of renouncing individual responsibility by classifying themselves into static groups and intellectually validating their desire to bring others down to their level.

One goal was to change the axis of the “struggle.”

Marx and Engels outlined it as “a struggle between two classes’, whom an individual is arbitrarily assigned to based on their material wealth. We reject this and assert that the real struggle is between individual autonomy, sovereignty, and responsibility versus the collectivist tendency toward group identity politics, rights, entitlements, and co-dependencies. Between cooperation and coercion. It always has been.

We hope to see it used as an inspirational text in the years ahead as Individuals seek to maintain autonomy and claim sovereignty, while the collective seeks to coerce.

Our longer-term hope is that this text can be a beacon of hope, sanity, and sense in a world being swallowed up by the envy inherently justified by Marxist doctrine.

Humanity is at a crossroads. Never have we had so much potential to do good in the world, or literally transform our civilisation into transnational gulags.

The siren call of Marxist entropy is stronger than ever.
The greatness and sanctity of the individual and the soul must counter it. May this book be not just an answer to the misguided, nihilistic, and often dangerous ideology that is Marxism, but a message of hope, responsibility, and liberty for all. This is the first edition, and we hope that you find deep meaning within it.

This is a book that you can read in a day or so but you will want to go back and re-read things and reflect further. I absolutely loved this book.

You may or may not have read Marx and Engels' book of similar name - don't bother - this is the one that you need. So many insights emerge clearly - not least the Real Spectrum in which Capitalism (properly defined) is at the other end of the spectrum from Politics: Right, Left, and all the "isms", not to mention authoritarianism.The definitions chapter is important - Mark and Svetski have really taken time to clarify correct definitions for terminology that you assume you know but don't.

Capital and Capitalism, Communism, Inflation, Deflation, Entropy, Fair(ness), Fitness, Forcing Function, Freedom, Monopoly, Parasite, Proletariat, Public vs Private Property, Time Preference and Value are among that terms that you will understand better and with that enhanced understanding the chapters that follow make even more sense.
I found the discussion on Equality and Fairness to be particularly insightful; you want equality of opportunity NOT equality of outcome - the latter leads to the Woke nonsense that we see everywhere today.

Mark and Svetski do not just criticise communism and politics rather they propose solutions. The real struggle is between individual autonomy, sovereignty and responsibility versus the collectivist tendency toward group identity politics, rights, entitlements and co-dependencies. Between productive cooperation and nihilistic coercion.

I love the simplicity of this book. "LESS IS MORE". I would break this down to the book giving a layman's guide to the overarching systems in place to manipulate & corose(idk how to spell it 🤔) humans into things. I believed it's called statism which is a political means of control. Then they break down the natural elements of the world and how that corolates to how we maneuver economically. When you step back and you connect the dots empirically it's clear as day. That's the gist, dymistfying what has shrouded peoples perspective and some modalities to implement. I love when someone gives you a piece of info and then leaves the ball In your court to piece it together, instead of trying to make you see something a certain way. This book is for the sovereign individual for sure.

Also there is a correlation that comes to mind with the premise of this book and that is the foreign exchange market, this is the biggest market in the world and there is no one that controls and overseas. It's a natural open market

If this post resonates with you check out my podcast macronomics (with leo). This is where we are anchoring this frecuency.

I had to stop reading a book halfway through and return it. The book is heavily biased and needs to explain where those opinions are coming from. The author expects you to believe that capitalism works without any justifications and even criticizes Marx and Engels for being unable to see prominent and ordinary things, which is quite unfair. Marx and Engels were philosophers and economists who knew a lot and made significant contributions to the field of economics. I read "The Communist Manifesto" three times just before I read this book, and it was full of facts and explanations that were presented clearly and concisely. When you read that book, you can feel a different level of writing that is missing from the book I was reading.

Furthermore, the book suggests that Bitcoin is a way to save Capitalism and Democracy, which I found to be an outrageous claim. I was so angry about the book that I had to stop reading it. Reading such biased and poorly researched opinions without any logical reasoning is frustrating.

I expected a balanced view with proper explanations, but the book failed to provide that.

Great book!

It is worth your time and money. I highly recommend this book. Most especially in today’s world. Where communism is right in front of us and a lot of people don’t know or recognize jt. This book summaries the lies and agenda of the elites. There’s still hope! Great read.

Timely

Clear, concise, powerful. Svetski and Moss make a convincing case that the great struggle of our time is not left versus right, but individual sovereignty and the collectivist state that aims to reduce people to data entries.

I learned about Mark Moss from the Robert Kyosaki YouTube show where he was guest.
Mark Moss is no stranger to making money—by the time he was 30, he had amassed $25 million in real estate holdings. When the housing market crashed in 2008, he lost everything. But he dusted off and rebuilt his businesses and investments, and this time, he knew that simply accumulating wealth wasn’t enough. He needed to learn how to protect his wealth and gain his own financial and personal sovereignty.
Now it is his mission is to share that wisdom with as many people as possible.

UnCommunist Manifesto is wrote in the fashion of Communist Manifesto ‐ short and to the point. But unlike in Communist Manifesto Mark Moss writes about capitalism and how to get back to pure capitalism (unlike collectivistic, central banking state economy). He said that there are not proletariat and capitalists are the enemy but individuals and collectivism.

This is my assessment of this book The UnCommunist Manifesto by Mark Moss according to my 8 criteria:
1. Related to practice - 3 stars
2. It prevails important - 4 stars
3. I agree with the read - 5 stars
4. not difficult to read (as for non English native) - 3 stars (I read it through TTS app so I might miss some of the meaning but I got the main message)
5. Too long (more than 500 pages) - short and concise (150-200 pages) - 5 stars
6. Boring - every sentence is interesting - 3 stars
7. Learning opportunity - 3 stars
8. Dry and uninspired style of writing - Smooth style with humouristic and fun parts - 4 stars

Preservation of private property

If you are looking for solutions in these divisive and financially unstable times, look no further than Uncommunist Manifesto written by Aleksandar Svetski and Mark Moss. Mark Moss is a historian and visionary with a talent for explaining complex subjects in a way that is easily understandable. Mark is on a passionate mission to teach all of us the principles of economics and the dangers of our current fiat monetary system. The authors compare the communist system (and many other systems) with true capitalism, it is truly a no brainer. How many times must the world experiment communism to realize that it is deadly and does not work!

Read the book put the principles to work in you life. Pass the knowledge and book on to friends and family. We can preserve our private property and our constitutional guaranteed rights.

Cliff's Notes for AnCap Objectivism

A basic primer of Libertarian-to-Subsidiarian social commentary. Echoes of Bastiat, Burke and Ballou, simplified and digestible. A good start for those whose innate common sense has led them to the conclusion that The Narrative is bullshit and there must be something more.

No Copyright here. Ideas are not IP. So share this far and wide. Pirate it. Get it into as many hands as possible.

We argue that people are neither their race, nor their work, their nationality, politics, color, creed or economic status. They are individuals. Characterized by their own beliefs, values and virtues, who can only be judged by the behavior displayed through their individual, independent action.

Capitalism Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the words in this list. Capitalism is simply another word for progress, innovation or evolution. Capitalism is not a system of rule, rules or politics. It is an organic process that happens in all living or complex systems. It is inherently apolitical. No ‘body’ is in ‘charge’ of it, nor can there be ‘forms’ of political capitalism. Capitalism just ‘is’. When we subtract all of the political definitions projected on it, we find that it is simply the natural process of taking resources (time, energy, matter) and turning them into something of higher order, quality or value.

Capitalism’s forcing functions are efficiency and effectiveness, its corrective mechanism is loss, and its positive feedback loop is growth. If an economy is a complex system made up of human interactions, capitalism is the word we give to its evolutionary process.

Communism Karl Marx himself told us that “the theory of the Communists may be summed up in the single sentence: Abolition of private property.”

the better we get at things, the cheaper they should become because we can do more with less.

Economics is not math, nor science. It is more a ‘meta’, a ‘way’, a philosophy or a ‘golden thread’. It is a set of principles through which value judgments can be made or understood.

Equality is everybody getting the same thing regardless of their input or relative value. Fairness is everybody having the opportunity to get results commensurate to the relative quality or value of their inputs.

Freedom The capacity to choose in the absence of coercion

Inequality is not a problem when you have social mobility. In fact, it’s desirable, because it not only makes the world diverse, but gives individuals a meaningful future to strive for. What Marx and other sterile, empirically- minded philosophers failed to realize is that humans are not driven primarily by the will to power, but by the will to meaning.

“Nobody is equal to anybody. Even the same man is not equal to himself on different days.” - Thomas Sowell

How do we ensure social mobility and a dynamic inequality whose composition is driven by competence in the multiple dimensions that status is measured?

Life is the progressive force that reaches and counters entropy, and it does so through each individual.

Monopolies can neither emerge nor remain stable naturally. They can only exist by decree.

The a- priori law of nature; that humanity as a collective entity had to climb up from nothing. This journey was and will by definition be hard, dirty and have setbacks along the way, but it’s necessary, and from where we stand, worth it.

Private property begins with the individual, their mind, their body and their spirit. It extends to the material resources we’ve acquired through voluntary trade or initial acquisition, that we’ve chosen to blend our time, energy and efforts with.

Your relationship to your family is direct, personal and real. Yes it comes with disagreements, pressure, pain, prejudice, expectations and a myriad of other problems, but to replace it with an indirect, impersonal relationship with some imaginary body of representatives is perhaps one of the saddest things to occur this century. The family is the nucleus of the cell in the body of humanity. Without it, humanity cannot exist.

two greatest gifts we have to give are our love and our labor, and it’s only when we first own both, and are able to give them freely to whom we choose,

Distribution can and will happen organically, and when competence is central and hard work accurately remunerated (fix the money, fix the world), wealth will flow to whoever deserves

Capitalism is not a political philosophy, nor a right or left wing ideology. It is a natural process all human beings undertake as they transform chaos into order.

Austrian economics does not seek to model, predict or organize an economy but rather to understand axiomatic, a- priori truths and then infer how the most complex of systems, the economy of human beings, may respond to certain stimuli. It is interested in studying praxeology, better known as ‘human action’, the marginal and subjective theories of value, human behavior and incentives.

By economically empowering the individual, they are free to choose and be responsible for their lifestyle, personal relationships and associations, and one’s own artistic, moral, esthetic and cultural choices. This is our path to a better, more just, diverse, wealthy, rational, functional and free world.

Human nature is boundless. It will forever evolve and adapt. Making it static is the true death.

it’s easier to destroy than it is to create. It’s easier to kill than it is to give life. It’s easier to bring another down than it is to raise them up. The siren call of entropy is strong.

Author is for:
Preservation of private property,
Free trade,
De centralisation of government,
Free market natural capitalism,
Pro family as nucleus of the nations,
Abolition of taxes.

And I agree 1000%

The only thing that caught my eye is that he mentions Tesla, Facebook, Netflix etc.. as great examples beating the monopoly, when in fact these are the best examples of crony capitalism, where governments grants full power and monopoly to censor free speech, make new vax and enforce it, get human brain chip trials and put thousands of low orbit satellites on earth and spread their agenda on screens… on top of they have the proximity to the money printer and the ability to borrow money at close to zero interest rates, essentially they are the biggest inflation exporters in the world, because they had borrowed trillions of dollars and they cannot fail, because the state is here to bail them out.

But author mentions Amazon as an example of crony capitalism.

I guess author cannot know everything about all of the cult owned socialist corporations.

Good short read in general.

A great dismantling of communism but not as compelling in its alternative of libertarian capitalism.

The authors focus on a utopian ideal but don’t spend a lot of time answering potential objections or flaws.


“Marxism gives some people a convoluted academic justification for envy, resentment, laziness and a sense of entitlement; all forms of behavioral entropy.

Nevermind that the Communist Manifesto is full of contradictions, hyperbole, blanket assumptions about people they neither knew nor liked and the arbitrary classification of people into two classes to be pitted against each other.”

Not exactly my style of book. I have to say the title was much better than the book. Glad I read the book. I received some valuable insight. Overall though, the book seems a little weak. Authors had a great subject. Just wish they had punched bag a little harder. Maybe beat the drum to the level of urgency they proclaimed. Last chapter seemed like a dash to the door rather than a proper exit.

Amazing perspective. Elaborates on how our current capitalist system works well and breaks down the flaws of Karl Marx's ideologies with simple logic and some psychology. Quick to the point and some funny comments.

I like any book that dispels the myths of socialism and communism. We should all criticize the evil philosophy of the collectivist.

بسیار ساده و جذاب! متن روان و پر کششی که بی‌هیچ اضافه‌گویی پاسخی اساسی و عمیق به «مانیفست کمونیسم» است و البته راهگشای برخی مشکلات فعلی و چشم‌اندازی امیدبخش برای آینده.

Great food for my libertarian and objectivist soul. A tiny bit too much Bitcoin content for my taste.
