I was talking to some guy about politics the economy and systemic racism back during the George Floyd protests and this mother fuckin white dude told me to read Sowell and I literally laughed in his face and told him to never say that again.
Yes, I read theory
Just let me have fun by blowing peoples minds by explaining to them how commodities work yes I’m a genius who read 3 pages of capital btw
Dude honestly I really want to read capital I really do the first couple of pages are fucking fire I know I would love that book and I could spend my whole life reading it and re reading it but I’m just fucking tired and drinking all the time just feels easier.
It’s a really long story but for a year I was at a dogshit evangelical Christian university and in one of my classes, this was the assigned text. After like three chapters I just decided I would fail the class instead of reading more of it
If someone wants to watch a 3 hour video on Sowell for whatever reason https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZjSXS2NdS0
Part One
🤬 fucking poser, real ones read ayn rand
Unironically, reading The Fountainhead in high school probably put me on the road to becoming a socialist.
Same here. Read some rand in school cause my father likes it and wanted to impress him. I just didn’t care for her books as time went on. Of course after developing a decent political framework I came to realize how dumb those ideas and the books are.
