do you think people would become revolutionary optimists at this point?
oh and i’ve asking this question a lot, and i’ll keep asking - that said, are there any methods on studying socialist/communist theory that makes it easy and fun? and please DON’T recommend an antisocialist book by rand paul (i’m looking at you, yeather!). seriously!
If you’re able to find an IRL Marxist / socialist reading group, those are pretty great.
For Capital specifically, I think working though companion pieces helps. I like the podcast Reading Capital with Comrades. Michael Heinrich’s companion book is good, though it only covers the first 7 chapters (the most important part).
i CAN’T go outside without permission. can online groups help?
Yes, definitely. I do think there’s something to in-person meeting but on Zoom or even just in a discussion group on something like Discord is great too.
