where’s my sticker
You present with two options either fail you and have you go fulneaky on me or hand one out cheapening their significance
ok fine, here’s one i’ve been actually reading
⭐ this one looks cool
ty 🥺 it’s one of the oldest physics texts so those parts are pretty much obsolete aside from gaining insight into how people in ancient greece perceived the world, but it also doubles as a manual on how to be a Chill Guy, which is timeless
if you actually do read it, do not skip the intro/foreword and footnotes as you go if you aren’t already familiar with the topics
I won’t skip since I am not at all familiar with this so thanks for the rec
⭐ I only got so many of these so first come first served
can I get one
What are you reading?
Neat not familiar with this one tho ⭐
thaank youu
you got eyes time to read 📖
Smacks top of head I can fit so many gold stars on this good boy.
You’ll get your star when you tell me what you’ve been reading, so far everyone’s been giving me 🥺
debt the first 5000 years 🥺
I quite like that one ⭐, highly recommend the dawn of everything afterwards
I love the dawn of everything!!! I read that first and now I’m going through graeber’s catalog
hell yeah always a good choice imo
Freire Pedagogy of the Oppressed.
Yo that’s 🔥 alright first ⭐ is for you
Gimme my sticker
⭐ I guess I never specified what theory
That scene from Se7en will always be hilarious. “Marquis de Shadae . . . Of Human Bondage, Bondage?” “Not what you think.”
It would be pretty funny to have a sort of forum signature that just lists all the theory you have provably read and comprehended. Like you have to pass an exam or something to get it.
Idk how to feel about that but having discussions with people could lead to more insights but I would feel like a smarty if I got medals for finishing the stuff I read
If I got a fun badge or sticker for actually reading theory, I might actually get myself to read more of it.
Would make this place feel too much like a real party hall rather than a shitposting site. And I’d probably fail the test even after reading all the theory on our Official Reading List (do we even have one of those?). I’m just really bad at taking political tests and party questionnaires.
But it might get more of us to read our theory, so… maybe not entirely a terrible idea?
I want one!
⭐ late star had to go out and get some more
The Coming Insurrection - The Invisible Committee
I have no idea what this is but gonna put it on my list ⭐
I think it’s mostly correct but it’s written in such a way that anyone who reads it from any side of the spectrum could agree with it and see it as reinforcing their own ideology. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who isn’t already ML, a fascist would read it and just become even more extreme.
It’s the kind of tract that will make people with radical views significantly more radical.
