    There’s not much reason to have never read it at this point, regardless of personal politics.

    Well a simple reason is interest, is not my priority.

    We’re not talking Atlas Shrugged or Das Kapital.

    And I also want to read Capital, but again is not my priority in the near feature.

    If Tankie means somewhat supporting what the URSS/China did, then YES.

    I’m not communist, I’ve never read the manifesto but I’m more aligned with their ideals and the materialism philosophy than anything else, and I saw this quote that marked me. I paraphrase: “… the worst communist implementation was still better/on par than the best capitalist country”.
