    Hi everyone, late to this thread. I’ve joined in order to interact more in ML spaces and hopefully sharpen my usage of theory in daily life. This place served an integral role in radicalizing me and I’m thankful for that.

    I’ve first discovered Lemmygrad during the first days of the Ukraine debacle, and continued to visit it and began asking questions, then became a full ML after reading theory.

      Happy to have you along with us for the ride! Lemmygrad was also very integral in breaking the last vestiges of my old liberal viewpoints and radicalizing me.

      Any particular piece of theory your favorite so far?

        Well, at the moment I’m trying to apply Dialectical Materialism in my daily life, so works such as Stalin’s Dialectical and Historical materialism have been useful. Anarchism or Socialism has been also a pleasant read, I think it helps clear up the willing misinterpretations of Marxism anarchists do.

        Though regarding conciseness, I like Mao’s “Combat Liberalism”. Currently I’m reading Lenin and then I plan to read more Marx, perhaps economics.

          You shouldn’t delve into Das Kapital if these are your first years as an ML. Wait to Year 5.
