It’s not Agile’s fault

that managers want to stay in control of everything, and they decide whether they do it or not.

It's like real communism: it's perfect but it's not possible to implement in our universe.

That's fine, it's a call from the manager.

That doesn't make it Agile's fault though. In fact, one of the key principles of Agile is providing developers with the support they need. Blaming Agile for the manager single-handledly pushing for something in spite of any feedback does not have any basis.

I have a cure for all cancers. Except that bodies refuse to use its molecules, but it still cures cancer in theory. That’s how agile have always been used around me.

Agile wants to empower devs, but managers do not want this.
