I've been working through classics and they are usually a bit dated. Dune is goodish, but also I prefer the new movies for their much better treatment of women, the Fremen, and removal of the wierder parts. Neuromancer feels like Gibson wrote it with one hand and has never spoken to a woman in his life.

I remember loving Roadside Picnic a while back. If you want to be incredibly sad, Han Kang's Human Acts is brutal but beautifully written.

I try to alternate between fiction and theory, helps me digest the theory better while maintaining interest and momentum in reading!

EReaders made a big difference for me. I now plow through books when I used to not be able to read a single novel in a year.

Becoming a cop is a life change, voting is standard, as is consuming bananas and using smartphones.

Deliberately choosing to become a cop is bad, because there are a wealth of alternatives. Not true for voting, bananas, smartphones, or cars.

A small subset of humans become cops, it isn't a thing someone just chances into

Systems can be bad, and the people who support and work within bad systems are bad, even if they act nice outside of that system.

There are people that legitimately try to argue that Star Trek isn't a representation of an upper-stage Communist society.

I agree, post-radicalization Anarchism is a comforting and easy position to adopt, because western Anarchists tend to rail against Marxism, which fits with liberal anticommunism.

I spent a couple years reading anarchist literature, and turned to reading marxist lit when the anarchists started giving unsatisfactory explanations.

Are you me?!

Dead and buried.

Israel is an ethno-state centered around Jewish identity. That is the literal entire point.

Israel is not the only fascist state that should he totally destroyed, of course others should be. The US is probably the biggest cause of conflict and exploitation worldwide.

Ethnostates are bad, and right now we have a fascist ethno state destroying people.
