Personally, I think two of them involve Hogan, and are polar opposites.

The AWA in 1983 had Hulk Hogan, and the dude was *over*. One of the most popular wrestlers at the time, maybe the most popular. Which, I think also destroys the narrative that "Vince made Hogan," because Hogan was already over without Vince.

Hogan has a whole build-up in the AWA toward the big title.

Just watching the opening of this: (27) Hulk Hogan vs Nick Bockwinkel - AWA World Title Match: Super Sunday, April 24, 1983. - YouTube you can see how fucking incredibly popular Hogan is right away.

Just my personal opinion, but I was pointed to the Communist Manifesto when I was younger, before I had any sort of ideological understanding, and it was just abstract nonsense to me (at the time). If I'd been pointed to the Principles of Communism, there's a lot more in there that's easier to read for folks that don't have a good understanding. Very likely I would have started to be radicalized sooner, because there's a lot in there that's like, "Huh, yeah, it is like that," especially from an American perspective. It creates a good base understanding, imo.

What are some reasons you can think of that folks would point to the Manifesto over the Principles of Communism?
