do you find youtube format videos easier to digest?

Id also say dont be too hard on yourself to get through theory quickly, theory takes an entire lifetime to digest and understand as often reading it isnt enough, you need to read it then go out and expeirence life and then understand how it fits into it.

I would say even one page of theory a day is enough, build it up slowly over time and dont rush yourself.

however most people will have studied marx in secondary education and could tell you about him

My user name is literally based on Thomas Sankara lol, but ok nice strawman im sure the person you just invented in your head is scary.

I also have a degree in sociology and read up to date sociological studies, I’ve read most of Lenin, Mao, Stalin, Marx and I’ve read most of what Sankara, Fred Hampton, Angella Davis and Claudia Jones have to say for one.

What have you read?

One of the moves China has done like this recently was during the belt and road, women being allowed to return to education was a pre-requisite that China put in for devolopment; It was east coast of africa, cant remember the name right now.

The intervention also lead to many innocents (like the chinese embasy) being targetted and bombed by US forces.

I do agree that the intervention was likely needed in this case, but that intervention should not have taken the form of carpet bombing as it ended up killing people completely not involved in the conflict; Clinton even apologised for this and recongised it as a negative.

The tensions have never went away however, the campaigns of mass imprisonment have only put it to sleep for a while and if recent tensions are anything to go by, they are likely to escelate again.

My sources on this are reading and being friends with a few people who grew up through this war, it is a harrowing one and I would say that often times its better to have ‘no opinion’ on matters concerning this unless you have personal stakes in it. Thats not directed at anyone in particular, just more towards americans who use this conflict to score cheap points.

never forget that /r/jailbait existed

let us know when biden closes gitmo or cancels student loans or gives you healthcare, we will be waiting.

Ironic that the liberal doesnt think the system they defend isnt an extreme to the vast majority of the world.

both kinds of extremists never make any sense, are complete snowflakes, and live in some sort of weird alternate reality where in some cases I can’t even tell of they are extreme left or right, they both trend towards extreme levels of authoritarian dick sucking

this weird alt reality we inhabits portal is found by reading books, engaging with reality and talking to people outside the first world

This problem doesn’t really have an easy solution as you can’t just flip a switch and create a domestic industrial economy out of the whole cloth.

pass them the boof

Thats why left unity among marxists is so important, and the crucial thing ultras forget.

Lets examine who the author is;

lol, lmao even

listen up kid my dad worked in a european embasy and he said the people we bombed where poor so think again COMMIE about how many freeDOMS we have as a result of our rape of the third world

if it was so bad why did the CIA report that the average russians diet was better than compartively an americans?

‘I get to have 8 different brands of pepsi-cola im so free’ isnt a compelling arguement lmao, neither are annecdotes from your neo-liberal scum family.

pizza hut will never see a cent from me either, fucking traitors.

Mao might be able to help you understand ultras issue.

its because most parents buy a 2nd house for there children as wages>capital ratio actually allow that

Steven Lukes

He gets to be an ML because hes a neo-marxist

Hes also written books on Durkheim and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marxism_and_Morality which critiques Marx’s ideas of morality from a neo-marxist perspective.

I also enjoyed his work, ‘Moral Relativism’ because its more or less what Parenti was saying in regards to the cuban revolution; you can only judge the morals of a society by the cruelty enacted upon them, if they are taught violence they will respond with it. It made me rethink my feelings about socialist revolutions.

He is critical of Marx but his criticisms arent empty and he attempts to build upon, not tear down. I think he is pretty critical to devoloping marxist thought into a modern setting.
