More like 2.5 stars. Most points he made like how western capitalist countries aid and abet fascism, deep-rooted anticommunism in the left to get acceptance, the ongoing relevance of marxism and class analysis are quite good. However, his defense of actually existing socialist countries and the subsequent attempt at not trying to appear uncritical of them are really weak.
