Someone in a group I’m in said, “Marxism is so misunderstood. It’s a good idea, but often executed poorly.”

Um… no. I wanted to ask her if she’s read The Communist Manifesto. It has never worked.

A statement of ignorance. I heard the same tired rationalization when I was in college 50 years ago. This is someone who was taught this by their soft-peddling socialist professors and never had an independent thought since. In fact, the execution of Marxism has been very effective considering the hundreds of millions that have been slaughtered by Marxist governments in their "purges".
