I wasn't expecting this, but it sure is warmly welcomed

[deathrattle]

Appreciate this. What attracted me to Marxism was that it was so much more than merely an economic theory.

I was watching Karl Marx documentary on DW channel just hours ago
And it was useIess...thanks for this one comrade FinboI

[megathai]

I can’t wait for you to get to the advanced stuff.

[cymrawd_foulkesie]

A surprise to be sure, but a welcomed one

[Tom-wonf]

Exactly the video I've been hoping someone of a higher understanding would upload, thanks comrade

[miharu]

Finbol doing immensive work.I image how it is hard to be completely objective, reject your innate personal interests and trying to wake social consciousness to way more level of being. Sorry for my english it's not perfect. :)

Philosophy, the highest state of hobby ;D

Progress Publishers published so many good books back in the day. I found a dictionary on scientific communism published by them at a second hand bookshop in Vietnam when I was on holiday. I think their books are pretty hard to come by today.

This is an excellent introduction to philosophy. Thank you.

[JohnT.]

Thanks for all the links. Very useful material.

Comrade, first of all thank you for all you do for us. It's quite clear you put in a LOT of effort into your research here and the value of that cannot be understated. You're doing wonderful work and are a great service to the cause. However: If i could offer you my constructive feedback, I have to be honest and say that one thing I notice is that you don't really sound as if you particularly enjoy doing this at all, at least from your tone of voice. Now, of course I could always be wrong and it could just be the natural way you talk, but hear me out regardless: The subject of Marxism isn't very digestible to a lot of people as it is, and you're giving a bear hour-long presentation on it in which you seem to sound very bored and disinterested. That kind of speaking manner doesn't tend to do well for helping people hold their attention through what you have to say, and it can make it tough for some viewers to sit through. Your points are all factual and have good intention, but I would politely suggest that perhaps it would behoove you to improve the delivery of your scripts. It's very important to be yourself when you speak, but you can also keep people engaged more effectively when you command their attention. Mind you, I understand you're doing your best all the same and I hope you won't take my words harshly! It's still a great essay at any rate. I just wanted to give you my thoughts for consideration in the future. All the best to you going forward and keep up the good work! :)

great job comrade, we sure need more organic intellectuals, in a gramscian sense

[ghislainemaxwellofficial]

This is fantastic, thank you very much for this, and I can’t wait to see more

Today it seems idealism and postmodernism is walking hand in hand when it comes to political discourse, or perhaps discourse in general. If you scream your subjective truth the loudest and get more followers/likes, than someone speaking objective truth, it means you have "won" no matter what.

Economics Explained did a video months ago on the Soviet Union economy and It feels like he was very one sided on his discussion of the soviet economy and how it operated. Does anyone know if FinnishBolshevik did a video on the soviet union economy or some else. I'm short on time now a days and cannot devote a lot of time for research. Thank you

[anglo-irishbolshevik]

Well done comrade. Important to know about the evolution of philosophy and the clash of ideas as society changes through different historical periods. ALSO SEE EMAIL I JUST SENT YOU.

[noheroespublishing]

On the subject of philosophy, seeing as how he has no translations here in the states, do you have any opinions on Philipp Mainlander's contributions with the young Hegelians? He sounds more interesting than Max Stirmer.

[gofar]

impressively EXCELLENT...! exploration on philosophers to scientists of their own fields of interests...

Vaush, a Blood Sports Youtuber who unironically SIMPs for Joe Biden, called you out by name calling you a class reductionist during his video titled "LEFTIE DRAMA! QANON! PROTESTORS! | PHONE STREAM"
I know you don't do youtube drama much but it'd be awesome to see you respond.
