    Default Intro

    Hello,

    Just an American Marxist. Things about myself:

    Favorite book by Marx is 18th Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, excellent use of historical materialism.

    I like Lenin a lot, and agree with almost everything he did except I have issues with democratic centralism, though I don't have a thorough enough of a critique to actually argue against it

    I really dig Mao's political and philosophical contributions to Marxism, especially with the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution

    Philosophically, I tend to like continental philosophers more, although the analytics do have great academics too (e.g. Harvey).

    As you could probably tell, I'm not too defined with my own personal beliefs, not a Trotskyist or Leninist or Maoist. Currently I'm focusing on getting a basis in philosophy and economic critique of capitalism.

    That's bout it.

    Welcome!

    not a Trotskyist or Leninist or Maoist.
    How about a Stalinist? ^_^
