    even funnier than the self-aggrandizement to me is him assuming that whatever future scholar is reading his notes on Capital is too dumb to figure out what GS means in context

      tbh given the galactic takes given by historians and classicists, I would absolutely add notes if I suspected anyone would give a shit enough to read anything I wrote.

    „In case my future biographer is wondering”…? Is that what he wrote?

    Jesus that’s horrible handwriting, and who the fuck thinks like that. Like that one twitter reply put it perfectly.

    I’m trying to imagine what the biography would even be about. “Once upon a time there was a wrestler who decided to create a youtube channel about Marxism. No, they didn’t involve themselves in the struggles of their time, but they preached a bespoke form of vulgar communism that didn’t go anywhere.” Wow, what a great story. Worth immortalizing and learning from for future generations.
