is it actually worth reading anything cause it kinda just feels like a cognitohazard to make you give up on any hope for a better future

    i mean it makes the idea of any of this stuff being ‘scientific’ feel like a total joke when people treat it like their replacement of the bible

      Politics, economics, philosophy, none of this stuff is scientific. You can take and use what you find necessary and reject the rest. And yeah ppl really do treat the fall of capitalism like the rapture. A better future gets built piece by piece, not in one glorious revolution

        yeah I mean, there’s clearly something of value to all this literature but I can’t figure out what exactly and I’m still not entirely convinced that I should subscribe to the framework for understanding the world just on faith.
