I play a lot of Magic: The Gathering with friends and my local community. As others have said nature is the shit, hiking, camping, walks, biking etc. also gardening if you have that option. Reading, writing & watching films while I leave my phone in the other room as to not get distracted. I’ve also recently gotten into bouldering and loving the sport.

So how do I then know what I’m reading is true or shouldn’t be critized?

As a new marxist who watches Hakim’s videos and listens to The Deprogram I’m now kind of confused if the content I’m following/listening is even correct after this post. I wanted to read this book as well, but am now hesitent to do so. Furthermore I’m now sceptical of any literature being recommended to me that isn’t Marx/Engels/Mao/Lenin which doesn’t seem right?

Or am I being too strict and I should just accept that not all aspects of the material I’m reading are going to be down to the point agreeing with ML thought? I’m just confused tbh.

I left my economics university when I was doing exercises in my workbook and saw a text that essentially read “unions cripple the economy and therefore must be eradicated”. There were some good lectures on macro and micro economics, but were so insanely capitalistic that I couldn’t stand it anymore.

My pipeline was through Hasan (however I’ve been a lefty my entire life), his subreddit had a pinned link tree with socialist resources where I found thedeprogram and then through that found lemmy. That said I’m not as big of a fan of him as I used to be, just grew out of it.
