    Trying to start Debord’s Society of the Spectacle, however it’s been going very slowly due to New Year’s.

    I have always felt a bit more ambiguous towards “cultural” PoVs of capitalist society compared to analyses more focused on economics, however I remember someone recommending this book in Lemmy and I am trying to give it a chance.

    Once I am back home I’ll try picking up Capital v3 and finally finish it. I tried following the study group here but life got in the way, unfortunately.

    I’d also like to summarize my (precarious) understanding of it, and ask a few questions that might sound a little “baby marxist”, but these will require a bit more effort and social courage than I have right now
