The Principles of Communism Pt 1
On this episode we dive into a new book! Part 1 of The Principles of Communism by Friedrich Engels. Engels lays out the relevant history and context for the second half of the essay, which will get into the meat of the communist world he envisions. Trolls tried hard to derail this discussion, but we persevered and got through the first half.
