Hi IVE been a communist for a few years now at least I think though the problem is that IVE neve read Marx
Though I have read the 1st paragraph of the communist manifesto however im not sure if im still communist I support AES and the ussr etc… though to be fair IVE only ever read 2-5 books(not counting textbooks)(counting assigned books) in my 20+ years of existing im also autistic though IVE watched communist videos on YouTube in fact that’s how I found this site and my ideology and political views and my personality IVE also watched Finnishbolshevs video on the history of phillosophy so am I just too stupid to understand Marx or even any philosophy and reading or am I a larper(dont feel as that’s the case as IVE been a communist for 3 years and have tried to learn more) or am I a truly faithful to the cause and a great true communist revolutionary im also not apart of any orgs
I just divinate what reality is by smoking weed, man. you don't need books.
>>2908187I don’t do drugs though
I only eat yogurt bananas and milk +some apples and other fruits
Read and ignore potheads
>>2908191Im a virgin who doesn’t take drugs and I live with my parents so I might I have the time to read though im too busy watching YouTube and talking to myself about history alternate history + using imageboards
>>2908193>im too busy watching YouTube and talking to myself about history alternate history + using imageboardsStop being busy, start reading
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch01.htm Read case studies of communist states and the biography of Marx
>>2908205Prefer something that’s under 5-10 pages I don’t like audiobooks I needs something to look at
>>2908206read /leftypol/ all day long
>>2908207That’s kinda what I already do I usually go into usapol when this sites more active
>>2908210then you're more knowledgeable than if you spent that time on Marx's CW tbqh
You can't be a communist if you don't know what you believe in
>>2908217I do I watch YouTube videos browse this site and I learn about communism been doing for this years
Yes
>>2908219Reading with annotations (xournal++ is good for this) and writing proper essays will help you digest the ideas you're taking in.
Why would you not read a bunch of the smaller pamphlets? Finish the manifesto and then read some other shorter texts. Try and sit down with a book for an hour every day if you have the time and you'll be surprised how fast you go through them.
>>2908360True though I haven’t read a book in years
To read too many books is harmful
>>2908188Define "only." Are you living entirely off of fermented milk and fruit?
You have to be able to read to operate this website.
So you can read, but just struggle with long-form reading.
Practice makes perfect. Try making progress one day at a time.
is this bait?
>>2908385So get to it, anon. It's fun to learn and know things.
>>2908474at least read volume 1 you stupid polack, there's wonderful translations of capital into both polish and english
>>2908477im not polish thankfully
Honestly, just learning from AI will let you dunk on most of the posters here. It's pretty simple.
>>2908491what's the point of dunking on the posters here? you might as well go to a special ed school and debate a retard using chatgpt
>>2908493>what's the pointIt's the meaning of life
>>2908491Except the AI have an annoying tendency to hallucinate so you have to check independently the content of its word salad. I.e you'll have to read anyway. So why wasting time with AI in the first place?
>>2908491smith anon, is that you?
>>2908509No, I'm in this thread:
>>2908516 >>2908429And yogurt
>>2908430No I mean like I don’t read books im not illiterate
Alright
>>2908467That’s a good thing except the last 2
>>2908468True that’s why I watch YouTube
>>2908474Kinda
>>2908491From the videos IVE watched over the years I kinda debunked people I remember debating some neo-lib on philosophy some ther imageboard though most people said I lost tge debate(probably because I just started getting into philosophy
>>2908493>>2908495Kek
read a fucking book. Its not like its gonna hurt you, besides giving you a marginally longer attention span, hopefully.
>>2908181>I think though the problem is that IVE neve read MarxDon't worry, you are just like the other 99% communists
Communism is when stalin pulls out a comically large spoon after he tells you if he can take a spoonful of your icecream
>>2908181It's not about reading, it's about acting.
>>2908536What are you interested in?
>>2908629True I was there
>>2908538I don’t really have the attention to read a book
>>2908611True
>>2908631True
>>2908640Im interested in history Georgraphy politics a bunch of autistic medias trains etc…
>>2908181If you are not illiterate then yes.
At this stage we need people woth advanced class consciousness to become theoretically advanced so they can advance the other emerging class conscious worker.
Start with
Principles of Communism by Engels it on the Marxists internet archive
If you want to be a communist but have a hard time reading, here is some basic marxism to help you:
real communism = total porky death
not real communism = diplomacycucking and trademaxxing with porky while you do welfare in one shithole
EXTREME levels of not-real-communism: developing nation-states (Israels) and crying when FDR died (stalinism)
as long as you uphold these principles you are a comrade
>>2908651Alright
>>2908672Thanks I know dis
>>2908797Mao is that you?
You are a fucking idiot? yes, you have to read theory, why is this a question? read uyhga read
>>2908467both are right btw
except for the good vs evil bit but actually that too is kinda right tbh >>2909063>reading a summary of summary of a summary of das kapital What were they doing
>>2909063What's next on this page? Fellating social-democrats for building assistance offices, which never solved any problems ever and only existed to scam people for donations?
why are many anti communists fearmongering if they think it is a failure? What would you have to worry about unemployed losers who make bad memes?
