I haven’t actually read a whole thing besides Engels’ origin of family, I tend to read snippets I find from online discussions or essays/video essays. But when I read Lenin’s definition of imperialism it blew my damn mind because it just made so much sense. I was already anti-imperialist before becoming a communist because of where I’m from but it just solidified it and cleared up a lot of things for me. I should really read more lol but it feels like a slog for my brain despite being interested in the material.
It was probably in one on of the recent Chile discussions because of 9/11. I had no idea about what had happened in Chile before seeing that and this video gave a great brief intro about Chile during Allende as well as the extremely cool Cybersyn project. More people should definitely watch this. Warning: Allende’s final speech is likely to make you cry.
As for theory, I tend to download an audiobook and read the same ebook of any given work. It helps me concentrate more when having multiple forms of input. I recently got back into Luxemburg’s reform or revolution using this method and it’s going well. This book is kinda relevant to the video as well, as Allende believed in achieving socialism through reform (we all know how it went unfortunately).

There’s a really good video someone else had mentioned before on lemmygrad: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=RJLA2_Ho7X0

Both at the same time. I don’t know if it would work for everyone but you can give it a try.
