Communism for Kids (Book review)

from Emmanuel Goldstein's Substack Podcast · host Emmanuel Goldstein

I am reviewing the (in-)famous book "Communism for Kids" that teaches the value of revolutionary violence to your little rascals. I love how everything is explained in such a "child friendly" manner like how Communism is literally called the perfect state of society and a cure for all suffering (that’s literally the title of the original German version even though the book itself actually contradicts its own title) and Capitalism is compared to a disease to which Communism is the only cure and how revolutionary violence by Communists is literally portrayed as cutesy little revolutionaries bashing in the “old society" (drawn as a big old pot). So if you wanna set yourself up to be ranted out to the thought police by your own children, here is the link to Amazon: http://amzn.to/2j15hHR And yes, that’s an affiliate link, because I support capitalism, and apparently so does the author. Otherwise why not just make it available for free? I mean I made most of my books available for free. So in that sense I guess the author is actually more of a greedy capitalist than I am. So if after the revolution some of the author’s followers accuse me of being a fat capitalist, then maybe I should bring that up.BTW: If anyone is interested in the (actual, real historic) East German Uniform I am wearing, let me know, as I don't really know what to do with it (aside from using it to poke fun at Communists). You can’t REALLY see it in the video, but the red badge on the right side actually even shows Marx and Lenin!
