Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Marx's Communist Manifesto, short and accessible! Highly recommended if you haven't read it

Selected works of Marx

I prefer blue maga, but it's someone who thinks the world can made great by the liberal side of the American binary system. Despite the fact that civil "rights" which were fought for have been systemically torn apart by a ratchet effect and a forever shifting Overton window that the democratic party has been explicitly engaging in.

They think the DNC can be trusted, that the system is not broken, and that change can be created from within the DNC/RNC monopoly by working with it. Not that we are a near fully-captured oligarchy with low education masses that are easily manipulated by media propoganda.

I was meaning the ML stuff, but yeah I know blue MAGA, but it's not just that blue MAGA are just dumb liberals, but blue MAGA is specifically the policy of Democrats to create a Bill Clinton 2.0 that adopts most meaningful policies of Trump (the anti trans and imperialist fascist policies like supporting slaughtering of foreign born brown people, criminalizing transness inherently, the increase in surveillance and authoritarian policy like ID scans and using Palantir/Flock, being dark woke without being woke at all, so on so on) and pretends it's different because a Democrat is doing it. It's the classic "Democrats can do Republican policy better" stupidity.
