What a perfect metaphor for the modern left; a man whose sworn goal is a classless, stateless, society, bathing in a bath of ill-gotten cash.

Just when you thought Prachanda was reactionary... (At least the CPI(M) did something).

especially considering the claim that this was a lifelong dream of his. To give him credit, this is a more ambitious project than most of the reformist lefts aspirations today.

The CPI(Marxist) is a different party than the CPI(Maoist). The former runs its candidates in the electoral circus and sells off cities as "special economic zones" while sending it's death squads to intimidate opposition forces in West Bengal. The latter is waging an armed struggle against the state

The CPI(M) are full of corrupt careerists, and it's not uncommon for their offices to get torched by the angry masses and their leaders targeted by the Maoists.

You've gotta admire the sheer audacity and pure lack of principle though. To build your career on the idea of abolishing profit and then secretly making profits that you squirrel away into an account in Switzerland is one thing. To build you career of the idea of abolishing profit, and then secretly make profits that you then take a bath in. That has style.

Considering how it's from the reformist, class-collaborationist, leftist murdering CPI(M), I'm honestly not surprised.
