The only economist I have the tiniest shred of respect for is Steve Keen, and that's only because he spends so much time explaining why economists are full of shit.

I think most people who have "read" Mein Kampf, like I have, have read bits and pieces of it and found it too turgid and unreadable to get through in its entirety. It's much like Das Kapital in that way, in that it has a lot of "deep" ideology but it's obviously shit because these ideas have all been tried out and never ended in anything but disaster. (Actually Das Kapital is even worse about this.)

Too bad the actual Communist Manifesto was brief, concise, and came across convincing. That book almost certainly got more people killed than Nazis ever did.

Mein Kampf is too fucking tendentious. By the time you're 10% through it's like ok we get it, we got it 40 pages ago, Jews worst, Aryans best, Germans best Aryans, and there's still 600+ pages to go (1939 English edition)

Das Kapital the same

Yes The Communist Manifesto awkshoolly understood the message that brevity is the soul of wit
