I truly hope he doesn't turn out the way I think he will turn out. I know we have a lot of people on here who love Mamdani, and I'm not trying to pick a fight. But goddamn, he's not beating the allegations these days.

Yeah I tend to agree. Honestly I don't know how someone could read Lenin and not feel compelled to show up. I know that's the feeling I have after cramming all his works for the last two months.

people think that thoughts are easily distilled in memes like they aren't swirling messy things that take a while to figure out, even for yourself. It works for reactionaries because they only need to prod the swirly cloud of incoherence towards something and emotions do the rest, and philosophy and political texts are hard to read when you dont have the frame work set up to understand it.

So people just dont read the works sometimes. You can always tell. Hell, i haven't finished many of the readings admittedly.
