Eclipse Moonflower’s Reviews > Reds: A Global History of Communism > Status Update

"Few were prepared to acknowledge that bureaucratism was the logical outcome of trying to impose communism in conditions of scarcity." - Russia, 1920's (p. 260)

So communism literally would only work if there was enough abundance for everyone on earth. Which is literally only possible through veganism, if at all. Whoa.

Marx makes it clear that communism is not a separate party, affirming how there will be no more "political character" once property is abolished, and class distinctions have disappeared. Wow, that would be nice.

I'm also so glad to be introduced to Poetic Fatalism and Determinism! I like both together so far.
