CyberClassWar Manifesto 2017

[Umair Chachar]

I mean. I agree it's pretty strong (I guess). However, there is so much wrong with this manifesto. It's crying out for absolute chaos and a new world order, which is very paradoxical to itself and the anarchist part. The only thing more confusing than anarchy is anarcho-socialism lol

You guys need to read "On Revolution" by Hannah Ardent. Revolts by the working class or lower are often extremely bloody and last a very very long time.

And "Capitalism & Freedom" by Milton Friedman to actually understand that Capitalism isn't all that bad if you have a small government.

VR,
Umair
