The manifesto arouses emotions on the inequality between workers and capitalists but falls short of providing great solutions. The overthrow of the Bourgeoisie and replacement with the proletariat isn't sufficient as has been the case in Russia and China. Socialism provides better solutions than Communism.
What a time. I do love how dramatic the writers are. Definitely makes you feel inspired to raise up and overthrow the bourgeoisie until you stop to consider if that's a good idea or not. (Spoiler: It's not.)

I might write a review later. For now, I'm just happy to cross this off the list.

If I could sum up this book it’s literally antisemitic man whines about the government and the bourgeoisie yet does not provide plausible evidence on how we as a society can create a better life for ourselves

Didn't really get it if I'm honest, and don't feel I can truly judge it with a rating. Lots of talk about class inequality without much detail of what the communist alternative looks like. There's a section where 10 "measures" are listed, some of which are pretty radical, yet none of these are explored in any depth, which was disappointing.
