Grumpy Leftist<p>I recently read "The Revolutionary Science of Marxism-Leninism" by J. Sykes, published by <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/FRSO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FRSO</span></a> (Freedom Road Socialist Organization) and I found it to be an excellent entry-level text to <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/ScientificSocialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScientificSocialism</span></a>. It's very approachable and easy to read for any leftist and, I believe, is quite persuasive in it's argument for embracing <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/DialecticalMaterialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DialecticalMaterialism</span></a> and <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/HistoricalMaterialsm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HistoricalMaterialsm</span></a> as primary ways by which to understand and change the world. Sykes also describes the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/Leninist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Leninist</span></a> form, organization, and inner-process of a <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/communist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>communist</span></a> party and how that can be an effective strategy for seizing and maintaining working-class power (the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/DictatorshipOfTheProletariat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DictatorshipOfTheProletariat</span></a>) as we advance into the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/socialist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>socialist</span></a> stage of human development. Those are perhaps the most commonly expected and basic topics, but he also delves into the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/MarxistTheoryOfKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MarxistTheoryOfKnowledge</span></a>, <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/PoliticalEconomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PoliticalEconomy</span></a>, <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/Imperialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Imperialism</span></a>, the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/NationalQuestion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NationalQuestion</span></a> involving the oppressed nations within the US, <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/WomensLiberation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WomensLiberation</span></a>, and <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/QueerLiberation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QueerLiberation</span></a>. I think this is a must read for anyone who considers themselves on the <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/Left" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Left</span></a> and desires a deeper understanding of our world!</p><p><a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://toots.matapacos.dog/tags/booktoot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>booktoot</span></a></p>
