I tried hard to forget this crap. Unfortunately, I'm cursed with good memory.<br /><br />My pet theory is that as long as the opus is voluminous its inanity and opaqueness add to its popularity - idiots like to pretend they "get it". averroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15741658997038386075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758330678390419129.post-75616198328297064722019-11-05T13:03:05.477-05:002019-11-05T13:03:05.477-05:00The hand in the coat is the a sign of a what?The hand in the coat is the a sign of a what?bobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07346130520372657080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758330678390419129.post-22199700670102503852019-11-05T07:59:43.234-05:002019-11-05T07:59:43.234-05:00Yep, completely agree.

I stopped around page 150 as it was clear that everything before was so wrong, and everything that followed was based on this first part, I couldn't get myself to continue. Whatever amount of socially necessary labor time Marx put into this, it resulted in total garbage and lot's of dead skylienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08160738385436843080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3758330678390419129.post-38072313127378421152019-11-05T07:14:15.382-05:002019-11-05T07:14:15.382-05:00I have a fairly early copy from last century of on...I have a fairly early copy from last century of one of the volumes for Marx.
