I’m not sure I thought just 1 thing about it when I finished it. Can you be more specific in your question?
Go easy on me now, I haven’t read it in probably 14 years. You would probably get more of asking me about “Red Victory!”, and its portion on the early months of famine.
I don’t know of Red Victory. Just wondering if you identified with the anarchist aspects of the book? Or, would you recommend The Gulag Archipelago by Solzhenitsyn instead?
In general I find democratic socialism to work better than anarchism, and I think the majority of people will never accept anarchism of any form, though I think rural areas are much more capable of experimentation over cities.
But to get back to the original point, theory is where it stops for a lot of people. They have no true ability to practice leftism in any meaningful context, and I think they hold it against the rest of us who have found ways to accomplish that within the system.
Maybe lift your head from the book and take a look outside. Your accomplishments within the system are failing. Maybe try reading “Social Reform or Revolution? by Luxemburg. It’s not a long read.
You have a problem with educating yourself?
I hope you find your way out of this bullshit spiral you’re descending in, best of luck to you
They aren’t making fun of you for having read The Conquest of Bread.
They are making fun of you for thinking that was enough.
What do you suggest reading?
Currently I am reading the island of the day before by Umberto Eco.
Its pretty good, but not his best.
What did you think after reading The Conquest of Bread?

You got downvoted for defending education. We truly live in “interesting” times.
