Leo Kofler and Jorben Shapeterson met again, this time in a different pub. Jorben Shapeterson started the conversation, "Leo, I must confess that I misunderstood Marxism and the working-class movement. I was biased towards liberalism and did not bother to explore beyond my Canadian surroundings."
Leo Kofler replied, "Well, Jorben, it's good that you have come to this realization. Marxism is not the bogeyman that some people make it out to be. It is an intellectual framework that seeks to understand society and improve the lives of ordinary people."
Jorben Shapeterson nodded, "Yes, I realize now that I did not give Marxism a fair chance. I was caught up in my own ideas and did not see the value in alternative viewpoints."
Leo Kofler smiled, "That's a very enlightened perspective, Jorben. The world is full of different ideas and philosophies, and it's important to remain open-minded and explore different perspectives."
Jorben Shapeterson continued, "I also see now that the working-class movement was not just a bunch of angry people trying to overthrow the established order. They had legitimate concerns and were fighting for their rights."
Leo Kofler nodded, "Yes, the working-class movement was about more than just overthrowing the ruling class. It was about creating a society where everyone had a fair shot at success and where people were not exploited for their labor."
Jorben Shapeterson concluded, "I am glad that we could have this conversation, Leo. I feel like I have a better understanding of Marxism and the working-class movement now."
Leo Kofler smiled, "I am glad to have been able to help you see things in a different light, Jorben. It's important to always be open to new ideas and perspectives, even if they challenge our existing beliefs."
