worst thing I have ever read, I had literally constant anxiety throughout the entire book
Good read, but yeah. Really solidified my understanding of all the world’s conflicts as class struggle.
I don’t think I finished it. I was way too bummed out. It’s hard to make it through without wanting to constantly scream death to america
I took a biiig long break once it got to the 80s, but finally soldiered through it.
Death to America, fr.
I think I have to move this book up my list.
It’s good, and trueanon has an episode interviewing the author for after you read it (or before if you want to go in with a general outline).
And for his other book, If We Burn.
Enjoy the two side by side: Why social democracy won’t work and why spontaneity won’t work
I am yet to read that one but it’s on my list! Is it move close to the top good?
Also just finished reading earlier this week. The most haunting part was learning that a decent portion of the killing was done by non-military, non-police locals. Neighbors killing neighbors because of anticommunist propaganda and state terror. I hate how much I can see a similar campaign happening in America, so many bloodthirsty conservatives ready for murdering communists to be legal.
If you want an absolutely terrifying movie, based on a true story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canoa:_A_Shameful_Memory
