Hey comrades, we’ve got an opportunity in front of us. We have a post on how “Boomers have had it better” and I didn’t have time nor well bookmared resources on why that is the case. I’ve only shared a graph of productivity and real wages splittint in 1971, and some guy linked wtfhappenedin1971.com which obviously allures that “it all happened because we split from the gold standard 😭😭😭” nonsense by it quoting Hayek. (Funnily enough, that website helped me in getting radicalized lmao)

So, please help me out here in making this a thread 🥺

    I know that this is not Marxist resource, and in few ways westernoid, but a good entry point for showing libs that economy was much healthier in 60s than since 80s is the book of Ha-Joon Chang “23 Things They Don’t Tell You About Capitalism”. It is very well written and is not too steep learning curve even for libs, so I think you can recommend it for libs. Than, it will be relatively easy to radicalize she or he into ML.
