Marx's prescient predictions for the 21st century

I agree with the comparison some have made with Michel de Nostredame. The blog post cherry picks some ideas, glues them haphazardly to current stuff, and add a linkbaity title (“You won’t believe what this Communist does next !”).

The paragraph about the iphone is especially cheesy. It’s an invented need ? Wow, really, did you figure this out on your own ? We’re not mindless zombis who buy what the TV says we should. Then we get “Chinese families fall sick with cancer from our e-waste”, part of the cliché that the mean Americans are killing the poor little Chinese. China manufactures and sells to the whole world, not just your new phone.
