I love the Mao quote right at the beginning. Brain washing is a good thing. Wash the dirt of liberalism and supremacy from your mind!
I’ve read a great deal of this already and I’m mind-blown how elucidating it is. I’ll definitely be revisiting and rereading this from time to time. The clarity of how to think of the world and its phenomena through a dialectical materialist lens is something I needed.
Special thanks for this. I’ve been behind on my reading and this feels like a lovely place to jump back in.
