Haha, I appreciate it, but I have my own skills and hobbies that I work on right now. Maybe down the line I'll come around to it, but for now I just like seeing what everyone else can do!

By "free press" you mean "dominated by capital," and since capital dominates the German state, this also means it conforms largely with the views of capital from a legal basis as well. That's why German press is so Zionist and tries to whitewash the Palestinian genocide, while going gung-ho into whatever mythologizing is useful to capital when speaking of enemies of the German state. The press and state both serve the dominant class in society, they cannot exist outside of that context. Outlets that run counter to capital are shunned, sanctioned, blacklisted, or minimized and undermined by the system itself, regardless of how truthful they are.

What a cool idea for a mega! Big fan! Not an artist in any way myself tho...

Hexbear does have communists, yes. As @BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net pointed out, Tibet waa a feudal slave society that the PLA aided in liberating. China has made missteps, but liberating the slaves and serfs from Tibet was not one of them.

Incredible developments, capitalism really does compel innovation.

Looks awesome!!!

Using power for bad things is bad. Using power for good things is good. The power isn't the issue, it's what's done with power that matters.

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 4 points 5 days ago

Agreed! Well-said, comrade. People often try to go for cheap wins, while we need to better adhere to Unity-Struggle-Unity.

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 17 points 5 days ago

Yep, it's very interesting from the outside, and helps us see how the political system in China actually works.

Cuba needs more solar and some nukes, ASAP.

 

As the title says! I have uploaded a new study guide targeting ~20 hours of reading time. I understand that it cannot be comprehensive with such a limit, but at the same time I wish to include a diverse range of voices, convey the core fundamentals of Marxism-Leninism clearly, and to avoid common pitfalls.

Any feedback is appreciated, as long as it doesn’t add bloat.

 

Hop in, comrades, we are reading Capital Volumes I-III this year, and we will every year until Communism is achieved. (Volume IV, often published under the title Theories of Surplus Value, will not be included, but comrades are welcome to set up other bookclubs.) This works out to about 6½ pages a day for a year, 46 pages a week.

I'll post the readings at the start of each week and @mention anybody interested. Let me know if you want to be added or removed.

Week 52, February 11 - February 17 – Volume 3 Chapter 51-Ending

Completion!!!

Discuss the week's reading in the comments.

Use any translation/edition you like. Marxists.org has the Moore and Aveling translation in various file formats including epub and PDF.

AernaLingus says: I noticed that the linked copy of the Fowkes translation doesn't have bookmarks, so I took the liberty of adding them myself. You can either download my version with the bookmarks added or if you're a bit paranoid (can't blame ya) and don't mind some light command line work you can use the same simple script that I did with my formatted plaintext bookmarks to take the PDF from libgen and add the bookmarks yourself. Also, please let me know if you spot any errors with the bookmarks so I can fix them!

Just joining us? You can use the archives below to help you reading up to where the group is. There is another reading group on a different schedule at https://lemmygrad.ml/c/genzhou (federated at !genzhou@lemmygrad.ml ) (Note: Seems to be on hiatus for now) which may fit your schedule better. The idea is for the bookclub to repeat annually, so there's always next year.

Hop in, comrades, we are reading Capital Volumes I-III this year, and we will every year until Communism is achieved. (Volume IV, often published under the title Theories of Surplus Value, will not be included, but comrades are welcome to set up other bookclubs.) This works out to about 6½ pages a day for a year, 46 pages a week.

I'll post the readings at the start of each week and @mention anybody interested. Let me know if you want to be added or removed.

Week 43, December 10 - December 16, Volume 3 Chapters 31-33

We keep going.

Discuss the week's reading in the comments.

Use any translation/edition you like. Marxists.org has the Moore and Aveling translation in various file formats including epub and PDF.

AernaLingus says: I noticed that the linked copy of the Fowkes translation doesn't have bookmarks, so I took the liberty of adding them myself. You can either download my version with the bookmarks added or if you're a bit paranoid (can't blame ya) and don't mind some light command line work you can use the same simple script that I did with my formatted plaintext bookmarks to take the PDF from libgen and add the bookmarks yourself. Also, please let me know if you spot any errors with the bookmarks so I can fix them!
