    Ruchir Sharma’s account is not like any you will have heard before.

    proceeds to say the same monotonous sleight-of-hand changing-the-name-of-things-and-thinking-you’ve-changed-the-thing-itself garbage every bourgeois economist left of Murray goddamn Rothbard has shit out then re-shit out from their overpaid university institutions in a nauseating cycle for a hundred years

    This is literally the same “road to serfdom” (also a terrible book) mont perelin garbage that has been bandied about by liberal bourgeois economists for a century, and is still as detached from the material reality and interests and the actual nature of political-economy and the state behind these inevitable realities. I’m unreasonably pissed at that blurb for being so goddamn bad and historically illiterate. gulag

    both of them. author and blurb-writer. go to the gulag and be reeducated. You must transcribe Marx’s Captital by hand 3 times, with select chapters chosen by the central committee to be transcribed 10 times each.
