    I’m noticing a common pattern with Christians who have not read a Bible a single time. Almost like the book is just a symbol to them

    Little? Can you recommend any?

    Das kapital volume 1/3 is 800+ pages and mind dullingly boring. Also rather hard to relate it to current times.

    Actually i see you posted some i might check those out.

      Das Kapital is honestly tedious enough that I never managed to finish it.

      I would recommend The Communist Manifesto (of course) and Theories Of Surplus Value (if you have the stomach for economic theory) from Marx; Socialism: Utopian and Scientific from Engels; The Conquest of Bread and Fields, Factories, and Workshops from Kropotkin.

      Critique of the Gotha Programme is fascinating, but requires some familiarity with late 19th century German politics.

      There are a great number of shorter-form articles Marx wrote in his lifetime; Marxists.org has them too.

    I love that the serial downvoters in this sub downvoted this post even though you’re literally encouraging people to read socialist literature.
