      At first I was like yeah Marx, I doubt I’d know other communist thinkers. Then I saw Stalin and Mao Zedong and I’m thinking that’s sending a bad message

    Sure, it might not work, but no sense not trying anyway. If you abandon trying to win via election, it will just give them more grounds to claim legitimacy. The last election was fishy, let’s not given them elections that they win without cheating.

              Once you understand both historical and dialectical materialism the next stage is organic, there is no question ‘then what?’

    Sometimes I wonder if most “left wing” spaces exist for the sole purpose of ensuring the right dominates the world.

    Then I remember there is little meaningful difference between a tankie and a fascist.

      The only fascists around here are liberals. Democrats are right-wing

    Reading also gives another vocabulary, arguments, a new way of thinking about certain topic, etc. A picture or an idea in your mind can become clear and be easily verbalizable when you read about that idea, even if you don’t agree.

    Like a vibes based argument vs a thought out argument.

    Read theory, people.

        it really bothers me that it’s called Marxist theory when the vast majority of it is actually hypothesis
