    Did you not see how I said to go to Kropotkin? Someone who specifically criticizes Marx and exposes the flaws in his theory?

    I simply feel starting with Marx is to get a good understanding of what generally “the Left” sees as a baseline for defining what “communism” is. It is beneficial to be well read, even of those you disagree with what they say.

    I should read more Bakunin. I read Engles in my youth around the time I was being exposed to communism alongside Marx. Then I was exposed to Anarchism through a new understanding of media and following the history of geopolitical movements they were associated with (big punk music fan).

    I guess I will apologize for succumbing to insults. Social media these days has my patience thin for online interactions.
