Marxism For Dummies 14

Though Canton claims it’s communist, it’s not. Beijing, like Belarus, breeds oligarchs. There’s nobody alive who’s heard of Marx: a rickshaw ride’s the only kind of trot. Seek Mensheviks in Minsk, you’ll end with squat. In Kursk are cadres countable as quarks, and proles in Petrograd? Like hunting snarks. It’s Putin’s perestroika, not Pol Pot. Why did the whole thing vanish in thin air? Why’s Sputnik spat on? Why is red so square? We needn’t be complacent in the West. There’s lots to learn within the Warsaw Waltz for, as a tool to scrutinise the faults of Christian Capital Conquest, it’s the best!

Can I just suffice with a quote here (because I am not feeling well?) "There’s lots to learn within the Warsaw Waltz for, as a tool to scrutinise the faults of Christian Capital Conquest, it’s the best!" That.

My friend, if you don't feel well, just ignore my scribblings. I love your comments, but I'd prefer that you were comfortable.
