Glad to hear it!
What have you read so far? I can make some good recs if you want.
Grand rising. I only reread The Communist Manifesto from college (paperback) and Capital a few months ago, and I found this somewhere on .ml instance and plan to start after I finish hurricane cleanup and some neighborhood issues. I believe I've seen you recommend The State and Revolution? which I'd planned next, but if you have better suggestions for my neophyte self (maybe 1-3 at a time, that would be great, especially if I can find them on invidious and can listen while doing household cleanup and regular chores). Thanks so much!
I used that site! Got through parts 1-3 and need to do org theory. Great works, don't use the site, a comrade pointed out that it uses google analytics. Make the same list, but read from sites like Marxists.org instead.
State and Rev is great, but I would read Politzer's Elementary Principles of Philosophy first, understanding Dialectical and Historical Materialism means you understand Marxism itself, the rest of Marxism builds on that foundation.
Excellent, I've bookmarked those sites and will begin in the next week, hopefully. I'm also add so please feel free to nag me until I do. Not that that's your responsibility, I just know my weaknesses. The hurricane mess makes me apathetic and want to veg with mind candy, but real nourishment is needed. Off to start my day, I wish you a great day/evening, as applicable. Thanks again!
No worries! If you go with Politzer, you can skip Dialectical and Historical Materialism, which covers the same subject. I prefer Politzer's work.
