Share here how did you approach or was approached to studying Marxism-Leninism. I’ll start.

I was initially drawn into understanding communism because of the fascist wave in Brazil, especially after the 2018 elections that got Bolsonaro into power. The liberals and fascists (frequently synonyms) were openly anticommunist, and their bizarre behavior and disregard for the poor was enough for me to realize they were enemies of the people.

So I began researching about communism to understand why they were so “afraid” of it, and downloaded some works of Marx to start reading, but I couldn’t read it by myself because I was never an avid reader and didn’t know where to start, because most of his works are dense. Until I found the subreddit r/communism, which at the time had a growing community around Marxism-Leninism, which through threads and comments got me started on it.

    Libertarian in the sense of freedom to determine your life as long as it doesnt infringe upon others right to do the same. Those people whove caused all this misery shouldnt be allowed to continue, and if that’s what the people united choose to do, then ill support it. Since they infringed on our right to freedom
