No, but I have the essence of things highlighted. You talk about Marx without knowing anything about it. If you know, you don’t make mistakes; you don’t say "communism is, in my personal definition, insane Christianity" to someone who asks you "why Marx would have died before being born." Someone who has read Mickey Mouse wouldn't confuse Uncle Scrooge with Donald Duck, even though Donald is his nephew and looks like him. They might be subtle distinctions; maybe I just enjoy seeing people talk about politics as if they were talking about soccer or sex.
As for Cristiano, Marxism has nothing to do with him, so much so that in Catholic countries (don't come at me with the distinction between Catholics and Christians, I’ll start laughing, just warning you), like Italy, Marxism has hardly taken root. The problem with the Communist Party, and now with the PD, is precisely that of coexisting with Christianity, which is something totally abstract, while the Marxists preach something absolutely organic, immanent, and material. For example, there will always be a Binetti. Or look at the former Soviet Union. The few countries that have secretly preserved a cult are those that contributed the most to its collapse under its own weight. And let's also add that Russians are Orthodox Christians, people far removed from what you mean by Christianity. Indeed, your view probably offends them. Marxism has nothing religious about it. Marxism is a proposal, "let's do it this way, let's share the bread, and we will all have a little bit." When someone talks about Communism, they mistakenly link it to Marxism, to the horrors of Marxism. Well, all the practical implementations of Marxism, let's say Communism, otherwise you won’t understand, Marx would have repudiated them. For Marx, the revolution had a clear course and flow, hence the dialectical hair-pulling of post-Marxists. Sorel said, allow me this other display of culture (I have it and I share it), that Marxism is an invitation to caution for revolutionaries. Can you believe that? Anyway, I'm fine, never angry. I'm not angry at you. I have fun with you. Not presumptuous, sadistic. And in the gym, forget it, I'm too alert for those places. And anyway (2), I never said I was worth more than you as a person (sorry, I extend the concept of person only to those I know well and accept as living beings). I just called you a poor thing, that’s all.

But tell me, Fallen, am I really going to waste my time trading insults with you, you little fascist, obsessed with the gym, wasting time punching a bag, who still holds on to the adolescent dream of hitting the police? You’re practically a stereotype; I have too much decency to tell you what I think. It's much simpler to just tell you what someone like Malaparte would have thought. Malaparte would have called you a poor thing; he actually begins with, "One could not even expect him to know certain essential things about modern civilization." Do you think someone like me can waste time with someone who says that "communism is, in my personal definition, mad Christianity"? You used to talk about Marxism, as much as it was nonsense, but you were still somewhat justified. You put someone in the book and then say communism? Christian communism? But does a poor thing like you realize that (practically) all Socialist states (according to political science, there are no communist states ;)) practice state atheism? And mind you, this is a very straightforward objection, eh... you could even understand it. Anyway, say hello to the professor you have at home and give him my compliments for managing to endure every day, at home, a son who is a stereotype. A stupid stereotype. Bye, poor thing.

"I'll give you a little note off-topic: I find it annoying that you quote without references and stuff your comments with philosophical-political drivel." And guess who couldn't care less? Not me. "You make culture a mysterious cult that's just for you and you never speak with your mouth; which, by the way, is a typically intellectual-bourgeois attitude. HUMILITY." Humility is for the humble, make good use of it. "That you should have picked up from 'la pelle,' but I wouldn't want to be wrong - by the way, hats off if you remembered it by heart, while you should take the advice to get a life if you had to go look it up in print." And you, who copied and pasted on Google, how ridiculous are you? For everything you said after: go train, don't waste time. Bye, little pea.

No, but what forgiveness. Go ahead. It was to add to the review. If it had been pointless or crap, I would have slammed a nice 1 and goodnight, but I didn't do that. Go ahead.

Starblazer, let me tell you why someone has to. Ready? Okay: you’re not funny at all.

Fallen, this might interest you. "One could not even expect him to know certain essential things of modern civilization: that capitalist society, for example (if we disregard Christian pity, or the fatigue and disgust at Christian pity, which are feelings typical of the modern world), is the most possible form of Christianity. That without the existence of evil there can be no Christ. That capitalist society is based on this sentiment: that without the existence of beings who suffer, one cannot fully enjoy one's possessions and happiness; that capitalism, without the alibi of Christianity, could not stand."

Beautiful review. Nice book, despite everything. It gives you hope that, beyond beliefs and ideas, people can love each other for who they are, at least pretending to tolerate one another. Then you finish the book, return to reality, and find yourself in the same shit world where anyone who isn’t like them is just a "goy." "Nazism poisons the environment, anti-Jewish ideas" — here, there are two things that don’t add up. 1) "They" have a word for everything. It’s called anti-Semitic. 2) Anti-Semitism was widespread among all the "goy" intellectuals, so much so that England and all of Europe chose Hitler's revisionism over Mussolini's. I can only imagine the sadness of the exercises to "trace the socio-political situation of Germany in the 1930s." What is there to say!?! I can imagine that in seventy years, there will be exercises to retrace the socio-political situation of Italy in the 2000s when some kid picks up Gomorrah. Then they’ll draw lots to decide who was worse off. I’m rooting for us anyway.

"Communism does not exist in nature, and it does not exist, as a rule, in the culture of human beings: throw a bone to two dogs, and they will fight for dominance; the same goes for a toy given to a child with the promise of sharing it with siblings: they won't do it; But you, have you ever heard of that other Jew, Roth? "No" would be concerning for the state of Italian universities. "Yes" would still be concerning for the state of Italian universities. In short, you really suck."

Paoletto, Paoletto... I preferred you when you were reviewing the Great Complotto. And these guys are paying for a server so that you, who can’t write without boring people, can fill it with junk, just because when you write about normal stuff, people avoid you because you’re annoying. Paoletto, tell me: what do you think about the fact that if you don’t write nonsense, no one even cares about you?

To eliminate "in different eras from this", here it is.
