Nobody wants to hang out with guys being like 'hur I hope things get way worse'

>>24500

i want to build momentum for change, not break shit and celebrate like a nihilist

>>24501
if by 'shit' you mean, breaking the ruling institutions' toys, that is much better than just jerking off to things getting worse.

Capitalism had two centuries to collapse, it just won't do it on its own.

Irony is, "accelerationists" don't really want things to change for the better. They wanna benefit from the system without having to square.
Accelerationists are attack dogs for capitalism.
They can be dismissed as lumpenproles.

other just reading Marx for yourself instead of having that shit get filtered through a bunch of dumbass party splits and sectarian shitflinging I would recommend reading the history of class struggles in your region. Us burgers got peoples history of the united states as a good start for example. This is moreso advice than a reading recommendation I suppose but I would read theory from all socialist camps and not just one. For example anarchism and marxsim-leninism both hold equal contributions to the movement while also being equally flawed and very much stuck in the past. So its best to just read from both groups and synthesize the good shit and leave the dumb shit in the past.

tbh most our so called "third worldist" posters are prolly white first worlders who think the rest of the world is as annoying and entitled as there suburbanite peers, think abt all the threads of people who actually live in the global south pissing these posters off by attempting to explain that being a resentful r9k poster with some vaguely marxist jargon added in is just annoying, counterproductive and really just an elaborate cope for there own inability to talk with members of the public abt socialism in a constructive manner. just tell them to post wall socket+hand+timestamp next time they go on a rant abt how there one of the good ones and the rest of us are just uncouth orcs.

This. Most imageboards are just mainly post-adolescent males whining about how life sucks because they didn't get laid with hot virgin teenage girls.
They don't wanna do any serious work at all.
They just wanna have a hobby career.

If you're serious about actually understanding Marxism—not the liberalized, toothless version that treats worker co-ops as the end goal—you need to ground yourself in foundational theory, not vague market-friendly nonsense.

Start with Engels for a solid orientation:

"Principles of Communism" lays out the basics in Q&A format: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1847/11/prin-com.htm

"Socialism: Utopian and Scientific" helps contrast real scientific socialism with moralistic daydreams: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/download/Engels_Socialism_Utopian_and_Scientific.pdf

Before diving into Capital, it's worth getting a grip on Marx’s political economy:

"Value, Price and Profit" — dissects surplus value and wages under capitalism: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/download/pdf/value-price-profit.pdf

"Wage Labor and Capital" — earlier and simpler, good to pair with the above: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/download/pdf/wage-labour-capital.pdf

Which has more adherents, traditionalist catholicism or liberation theology? Does it differ in Europe vs LatAm? Why/how?

Looking for good books on atheism

What's some good resources for getting into witchcraft, particularly Wicca, proper? Like I understand the basics sort of, but I'd like to develop an understanding of it that isn't just scrapped together from youtube videos.

Alawites are "ghulat", ie extermists, meaning they worship ali as an aspect of god, making them technically heretical to all mainstream forms of shia islam.

I will say one of the bad consequences of Marxism was that it separated socialism from spirituality and religion. Before Marx, most utopian socialist movements were religious or occult groups or freemason lodges. This separation made scientific socialism crude, mechanical, and soulless form of political scientism.

>there's a good reason atheists tend to be angry about religion and all the barbarism it involves
That's because most of them are ironically fundmamentalists who portray religion in a specific way to alleviate themselves. Its similar to how the Germans pass the Holocaust guilt onto Nazis and immigrants. And although they champion criticism, they chimp out whenever you criticize them or imply their narratives are flawed. The myth of an essentially evil and barbaric religion, timeless and everywhere the same, is pure projection, a myth cooked up by the atheist. The reason most online atheists are angry about religion is because they are as bigoted as Jerry Falwell.

I've never liked Dabashi. I don't think this book is a good work of theology and the whole post-colonial studies thing is a dead end.

not really , i am not even a muslim
i just love to research about religions , any religions
–
honestly i did not knew where should i put it

I don't think this means very much. I've never seen anyone reverse the Quran. But if you are interested in bizarre interpretive techniques, take a look at Hurufism.

Read the Eclipse and Re-Emergence of the Communist Movement, his second book?
Apparently he said that Marx was wrong, is that true? Kinda put me off reading it.
