I'm a communist on a decentralized social media app discussing leftist stuff with leftists. Why would the question be in bad faith? Seriously. Sometimes comrades -- ya'll can make the most simple discussions, really, a pain.

Isn't Argentina like the Nazi HQ of South America?

I'm not reading "Debt". It's more a criticism of specific jobs. Different focus.

High School is designed to make us obedient workers under American Capital. The fact that you struggled only says the most virtuous things about you and your inability to be programmed.

Dialectical materialism tells us to evaluate social systems by whether or not the internal contradictions are causing it to grow or decay. I think that's beautiful.

Personally I've been reading a lot of despondent posts on LinkedIn and wanting to lose it on the C-Suite overlords bringing about the AI jobpocalypse, but that's more of a personal doom-scroll daily event because they got me in October -- and not actual literary works. I just ordered "Bullshit Jobs: A Theory" by David Graeber. I'll keep you posted on if it's a good read.

Good practice! I like. You couldn't really answer it wrong if you answered my friend. lol. I have a passion for the movement regardless of reading material. But I love learning where listening to others tell me where I should be paying attention.

Some of us might be familiar with the arguments surrounding Direct Action and Class Struggle (*see URL attached for reference). But do we ever discuss the pertinent intersections of Direct Action and Academic Discussion/Theory? I'm new to the space, but would love to hear from some comrades how they discuss theory and/or take direct action, and which plays a heavy role as mechanism(s) in their personal lives. No wrong answers in the least, of course. Just want to get to know how folks on here engage and create advocacy/effect change in their communities.
