really liked it

I did agree with a lot of things in this manifesto such as capitalism being over the top and getting out of hand. When the economic situations in history were broken down and explained, I was nodding along. I was surprised by how readable the manifesto was. I expected to get lost in the economic and class distinction jargon, but that didn’t happen at all. When it came to the second chapter, I started to disagree with some things. I felt like they started to sound a bit egotistical when discussing ideas they’d created. I also think they made some generalisations which should have been explored in more detail. Regardless of whether I agree or disagree, it definitely gave me a lot of food for thought. I was less interested in the third chapter. But I was intrigued and agreed with a lot of what they said about bourgeois socialism.
