But the title said industrialism, you're confusing him.Despite the fact that the author definitively coined the term 'socialism' within the work and Saint-Simon is recognised as one of the fathers of modern socialism. Right.
I was an angry kid, I knew plenty of angry kids, we didn't go out and form a terrorist organization. Trying to pull the "oh kids will be kids" thing is hilariously stupid here.
But I agree that most of them probably don't understand communism. It doesn't matter though, because so many people tell them they're heroes and try to deflect blame from them.
didn't ignore them read what you gave flood, draughts, dieses, and insect swarm that cause crop failure that causes famine isn't the fault of capitalism unless you want to claim capitalism controls mother nature
The famine that Rommel counts was famine that is directly connected to government action
The British Empire didn't call down the floods and Typhoons to cause the Famines in India. It handled the situation poorly sure, but it didn't purposely cause the famine. Which is the point of famine numbers in the black book.

I understand them completely, you're just deluded.

No they're not.
It's almost as if Marx and Engels based their philosophy on a standing corpus of socialist philosophy and never would have arrived at the conclusions they did without the influence of people like Saint-Simon and Fourier.
Are you going to admit you were talking out of your ass, or were you just being "hyperbolic"?

I would say worse at this point just due to numbers alone.
