Orbital bases and parties I'm not invited too are fine but I draw the line at actually reading theory ๐ค๐ค๐ค /s
My only respite from this agony is knowing that as a leftist I only have to finish reading Capital. I heard they're going to make the reactionaries that survive read Hegel in the original German too. Granted a decent percentage of them will already know German but as I hear it even Germans prefer the English translations.
Marx was allegedly really bad at writing and actually publishing his own thoughts, and he got shit done only thanks to his wife Jenny von Westphalen and his husband Fred Engels
I mean for my part I'm just totally joking. I think it's all valuable to read when you have the time. I'll make my jokes about linen here and there, but the last English translation I read of capital was a bit verbose and dated and I think a good bit of praxis would be to simplify it even more for people.
Ah, that explains it.
