Introductory Commie reading/watch list
This page contains some relevant digital information debunking capitalist, fascist, neo-liberal and so on propaganda and misinformation, which I find to be good introductory material.
If you disagree with something being here, or want to add another entry, be that a book, article or youtube video, PRs are welcome.
To reiterate: this list is not exhaustive, it's introductory.
Some words of advice:
Embrace critical thinking and steer clear of doomerism. While this advice might seem clichéd, it bears repeating. I've placed it in a details container to avoid annoying those who may not be interested.
Chances are, you've experienced the discomfort of being misinformed at some point. That's perfectly normal, as long as you acknowledge and accept when you're wrong. The world is in a constant state of change, and those who deny this follow a metaphysical, idealistic worldview.
Such a perspective is convenient for oppressors, as it implies their power is eternal. However, history has shown that even absolutist monarchs can be stripped of their power, and the same can be done with the bourgeoisie who oppress us today.
Remember, there is no unchanging human nature; we are shaped by our environment. To understand and challenge the status quo, employ the Marxist method of dialectical materialism. When applied correctly, it consistently leads to accurate conclusions. Additionally, cultivate class consciousness by recognizing your place in the socio-economic structure and understanding the dynamics between different classes. This awareness is crucial for collective action and meaningful change.
