yeah naw homie, check out some broader marxist informed history (my go-to s are like Aimee Cesaire - Discourse on Colonialism, Walter Rodney - How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, Eduardo Galeano - Open Veins of Latin America, Silvia Federici - Caliban and the Witch, Giovanni Arrighi - The Long Twentieth Century).
You’re defo right about lenin’s definition of industrial capitalism, but Parenti is right that the process into Capitalism has been long and continuous, and especially that the colonialism of the obviously pre-capitalist era was absolutely vital for the process of capital accumulation that fed into the industrial revolutions.
Personally, I think when we’re talking in this thread about trying to reach people who have never encountered theory before, we don’t need to be fussing over the proper definition of capitalism and whether it’s industrial or not. Point to the exploitation, the interconnections, and the contradictions that rise from these exploitative structures.
I like them, their prints are v nice and minimal, but w just enough cover design to be attractive. they defo specialize in smaller texts, but I’d still recommend them tbh.
edit: also they ship pretty fast too, ngl
