C’mon dude, they just asked you to copy a quote from the Capital, not to recite a whole brochure with the latest analysis on imperialism. And/or swear by it,

It is the most basic common ground for every left wing person and a monumental text in modern Western literacy.

Most people I would care to discuss with should have a basic understanding of what is written in there, and I believe it is the same for people running their own instance.

If you take such a vehement stance against “quoting” Das Kapital, then you probably you lie so much off center that I would personally could have no productive discussion with you.

I mean, even the notion that this is some kind of pledge of allegiance is suspicious enough in its own sake, like letting us on you believe leftists are somehow indoctrinated[^1]. I you weren’t a little removed about Das Kapital you could even subvert the text by quoting something out of context so that it says something unintended by the authors.

But indeed, if you are turned off by this playful screening question, then it only shows that such screening serves its purpose most effectively.

This part is funny

I am sorry but you are wrong: This bit is beyond funny.

So you are a mind reader now?

I used to think it stood for machine learning.

That is a total misreading of what I said. I am scarred by the historical fact that the Holocaust happened. If you are literate at all you can see what I am saying about a specific photo. You want to hunt Holocaust deniers? Go after JK Rowling instead. LOL

Then someone should correct the Wikipedia statement instead.
