It gets at something real, but there are better, Marxist ways to articulate the truth it’s pointing to. (I admit, I have a deep repugnance toward getting on board with anything said by Karl Popper).

Popper was an anti-socialist hack with very little useful to say. Unfortunate that he had that one good thing to say.
