all you have to do is read the Amazon listing to see how pointlessly anti-communist and numb-minded this book is.

The ad makes it seem like the perfect ancap read. "The Naked Communist contains a distillation of more than a hundred books and treatises on communism, many written by Marxist authors." or in other words 'This book contains various sources, but is ultimately the writer's take on them and cherrypicks to systematically obfuscate the source material'

This seems like a modern big black book o' communism, the loser who sent this to you probably thinks they're an intellectual for knowing about this book. They also probably think Ayn Rand's ideals are flawless, and that 'hitler did nothing wrong', so it's probably best to just ignore this chump.

I know this post is three years old, but I stumbled across it and had to comment.

I read this book when I was like 13 because it was one of the few books my parents allowed in the house (author was a crazy devout mormon like themselves). Completely forgot it existed until just now.

Pretty wild that all these years later I'm an ML lmao
