Underpinning the entire #manifesto was an #anticapitalist sentiment, recurrent reference to hypergamy – coupling up with someone of higher status – and a belief that society is structured in a way that results in #inequality for #whitemen[...]"
I would like to find obscure and interesting manifesto type writings not listed on that web site. Suggestions? Links?
