Due to a brain injury I can not read condensed books. So I rely on comrades who are willing to educate me through conversation about theory they’ve read. For me this works and I know and understand enough leftist theory to be able to apply it in real life organizing. Obviously my situation is not comparable to this person who is wilfully staying ignorant. But I do feel called out whenever people talk about how reading theory is a necessity for being a leftist.
i'm more amazed at this instinctual understanding of being swindled by a book of "things harvard don't teach you to get a billion" (they won't sell it if it were real, semi-obviously) being expanded upon all the books, everywhere, in all history. like how do you come with this shit? ooh sorry, dan brown novel was so poorly written, i won't read hemingway (???)
