If there was a political pop quiz here and now, and you were quizzed on what political figures said as well as passages in different manifestos, would you bet on your success? (lemm.ee)

Assuming you have read the book is the issue. Is it going to he Marx? Or maybe Judith Butler? What about other thinkers that write about race? What about anarchism, is Kropotkin out of scope? Should the quiz also cover market economies? What about Thomas Sowell?

My point is while I have barely scratched the surface, I have already mentioned a wide variety of authors which most people haven't read (some of them for good reasons).
