With its message of working-class empowerment and call for unity, The Communist Manifesto endures as one of history’s most influential, visionary, and controversial documents. Intending to rouse listeners from their indifference, authors Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels demanded the end of proletariat exploitation and called for the overthrow of the oppressive bourgeois ruling class. It was a blueprint for an uncompromising new direction that would serve as the spark for the socialist uprising in the late 1800s.

Today, The Communist Manifesto reverberates fully and fittingly in the polarized political climate of the twenty-first century.

Revised edition: Previously published as The Communist Manifesto, this edition of The Communist Manifesto (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

Most relevant  
This book provides an excellent demonstration of what happens when we ignore what has already happened in history. It is as relevant today as it was when it was written, that is, if you are able to apply the core principles and concepts behind the text to our modern society. Some people will just not be open or willing to see these parallels. It also distinguishes between what communisim actually is versus how is widely understood and described by sensationalist.

It makes me sad to see that the state of the proletariat is far worse off than it was then. Working people are too busy struggling to get by to ever have the time to recognize the need for change, much less mobilize to change anything. We have gone from 9/10ths to 99/100ths.

Everyone is satisfied with same-day product delivery, so there are clearly no real problems for the working class anymore.

I was worried about reading the enemy's playbook. I was worried that I might find some revelation in it, but all I found were notes leading to a flawed system. The flaws and rhetoric were abundantly clear.

Not sure this answers or made it so that I understand communism any better. Just know that I want to live in a democracy

I read a brief summary of the Manifesto years ago. The author of that summary said it was essentially one big class warfare incoherent rant. And he was correct. It was worse than I thought. Given the historical importance of this book I assumed it might have some sort of compelling message, but it did not. I would still recommend anyone interested in politics to give it a read or listen for them to make up their own mind.

Now on to Mr. Adam Smith!

A lot worse than I thought...

I was expecting some astounding reasoning and persuasive ideas. It’s good to read just to see what the hype is about but I don’t think it’s a good read.


What I learned about communism:
I imagine anyone who is for communism is imagining themselves as boss of all the ants, not one of the ants and they either obey or die. So, I guess that would be utopia for king of the ants.

What I learned from this book:
Just ‘cause some olden time bro wrote something doesn’t mean it’s good.

You cannot proclaim to support Communism unless you have read this manifesto. Should you agree with Communism, it is most likely that you only do so because you are a poor and uneducated piece of trash that thinks the world owes you something. Communism is the battle cry of the retards in society trying to unite in an attempt to take from others what they think ought to be theirs. But the Communist fails to realize, as made evident by them being retarded, that in order to rule a nation and control industries you must be educated in how to manage.
