i am new on the journey, but there is something that fidel and che would say about these things
This tells us one thing: simply, that Marxism is a living science, a developing science. We have to study everything that Marx taught, but at the same time we have to study everything that Lenin taught, we have to study the entire experience derived from the building of the first communist society. - Fidel
in that stain of thought of marxism as a science
The advances in social and political science, as in other fields, belong to a long historical process whose links are connecting, adding up, moulding and constantly perfecting themselves. - Che
harper o'connor is some new influencer who does the kind of agitprop for improving oneself talks about the need for theory
but basically reading deeply help build your knowledge on the subject, give you the insight of all those that came before you, you create within yourself a long familial linage of knowledge which connects you to the past. also when a person ask you question, and you answer "i don't know", it kind of make the person internally think "why am i listening to this person?"
like with mathematics, the more you study and practice - the more effectively you can apply to the different problems you will inccur.
edit. i think it was some roman/greek philosopher that said something like, reading/study firmly establishes you into one of the "great houses", the extensive study of marxist leninism - make you a family member of this house, their predecessors live on in their students and continue to be developed by the students in this house. (though this may seem to come into a slight conflict with the science analogy, this is not a dogma, it is the application of a science)
