A few good things I can think of after I posted this yesterday. This shit doesn't have to be perfect, just provide a list and some explanations on how it can be effective. This is just meant to get the ball rolling, not meant to come perfect. Just think of these as media jumping off points.

  • Parenti, Blackshirts and Reds
  • Zinn, A People's History of the United States
  • Schlosser, Fast Food Nation - a great rundown on the fucked up fast food industry
  • Ehrenreich, Nickeled and Dimed - holy shit this one's depressing
  • Davis, City of Quartz - basically fuck LA
  • Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth
  • Nestle, Food Politics - for some reason when I talk about food it really messes with libs, definitely worth it
  • It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, "The Gang Goes Jihad" - shockingly pro-Palestinian take on Israel
  • Adam Ruins Everything - bite-sized content that doesn't always indict capitalism, but I think it does the trick
  • Philosophy Tube
  • Shaun
  • HBomberguy
  • Snowpiercer
  • Parasite

What else y'all got?

Contrapoints’ videos on capitalism were a key factor in my radicalization, but I don’t feel like invoking the struggle session around her right now

Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein. It doesn't really indict capitalism (instead it does the whole crony capitalism thing), but it's very critical of American foreign policy and of neoliberalism. And I don't think it would take too much to make the jump from that book to a full on leftism.

The Dispossessed by LeGuin

Walkaway by Doctorow is a fun FALGSC novel. Radicalized is also good
