dippin: i've taught the manifeto more times than i can count, and i don't see any of these points in it except 1, 3 and 10. and none of these, except 1, are present in anything like the same language. what i see in the above is some bizarre, anachronistic cliff notes variant on the manifesto. i'd be happy to defend this, line by line with direct reference to the text, if need be.

more generally, on the op:
it's a little bizarre to see a blog written by some russian reactionary presented as if it were a coherent take on the situation of capitalism in it's contemporary forms.
it might make intuitive sense if you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, but the key feature that determines it's persuasive power is that you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
