Has anyone read Trekonomics? (hexbear.net)
 

What did you think? Is it worthwhile picking up?

Depends on where you live but in England we had our first 40 degree day last year. Thankfully, it's been milder this year but I expect that to be the norm as well as huge flooding for most of the country too. It's not going to be pretty.

Can you recommend some modern introductory books to Communism, Marxism-Leninism or the history of Communism? (hexbear.net)
 

I'm only really interested in books written in the last 30 years and ones that are accessible to complete newbies. Thanks!

I do not understand the lack of empathy that leads to this kind of shit. (slrpnk.net)
 

This to me is an absolute nightmare scenario.

I understand that the west has ridiculously high levels of propaganda against the DPRK but how do Communists argue with the fact that there is clearly some kind of family line to the leader role? in c/communism101@lemmygrad.ml

That was a really interesting read and actually explained it very well.. Thank you. Do you have any other things to read on the DPRK in general?

I'm just a baby at this and trying to ask in good faith so sorry if this is asked a lot.

Shouldn't the role be "advertised" to other people as well? Why is it following the Kim family line when that seems completely against ML thought?

Why is a permanent leader important in communism? (hexbear.net)
 

I understand the party is in charge and those positions will change but in most socialist states there seems to be a permanent head ala Lenin, Stalin, Castro, the Kim's etc.

Is this what Marx meant by dictatorship of the proletariat? Is it possible to have democratic communism? I'm new to all this but I'm finding it all really interesting. Sorry if this is a common question.
