How is your part of the world doing (both current and future prospects) compared to how it was 30/40 years ago? Please say where you are in the world.
Edit- Thank you everyone for commenting. It has been very interesting for me and hopefully for others. If you are just coming to this post please still comment I am still reading them.
Marx was right and it’s getting obscenely obvious
I remember reading that he saw communism arising naturally after late stage capitalism, not before. Unless I’m filling in the blanks of my memory.
If you can blame him for anything, you can say that he couldn’t imagine just how bad late stage capitalism could get.
Though I’m not sure if that takes away from his other arguments or makes them all the more prevalent.
He nailed the bigger plot points but yeah, who could have seen the mind boggling scale of everything back then. Technology really amped things up.
