am I a dialectic in realizing that I would not fight in the revolution because most outcomes lead to situations where I am dead and when I think of being dead I get a pain in my chest because I have attachment to the mortal for the and my wife. would have been good for the meat grinder before I met my wife. now I work to accrue capital because I want her to have a nice life with me and if I possibly die. brining a kid into this plain of existence is a tall ask, but that would def have me hoarding capital.

would the thread enjoy a book report style recap of my chapter readings? I don't think I will have any particularly new analysis, but I am the grandson of a woman who escaped Batista's Cuba by being caretaker to a rich families kids that definitely colored her opinion on Castro but I don't really get to know how because she has late stage Alzheimers and is non-verbal.. Then pops side is Dominicans from el campo. Definitely had a long path to be able to accept reading Marx. after arriving very quickly that the liberal ideology was completely trash. but not that the resistance to it via conservatism was also incredibly wrong.

apropos to nothing posted:

I hate that so many socialists refer to it as theory instead of just books. it has this implication that it’s more than just reading a book and then also trying to apply what you read to your work. it also always fetishizes books written by marxists who are called that because they work in academia and write academic books about marxism and not people like Jane mcalevy who isn’t a Marxist but whose writing and ideas despite some shortcomings have way more value to any actual work marxists would or should be doing

it's not exactly the same style of reading as curling up with infinite jest
