Some very politically “neutral” are “the book of” series. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/24878419-the-sociology-book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8493026-the-philosophy-book
You can find them on Anna’s archive.
I honestly don’t know how to describe them relative to how lemmygrad’s political line, but I like that there’s a time line, and it felt complete enough for my young self.
I suppose after getting a grasp, some vocabulary, and context, it is probably easier to follow prolewiki’s: https://en.prolewiki.org/index.php?title=Portal:Marxism
I’d also follow the collective study groups here, in your position. :)
Let me know how it goes! Hasta la victoria, siempre!
How about starting with a guide, and make notes on primary sources for later?
Anything you get here will be someone’s take on the path for sociology. Just like the author of a sociology review guide/book.
Otherwise, sociology concepts tend to be non trivial to navigate, because beginners miss the historical context in which concepts are proposed. And where primary sources are coming from.
This take “primary sources only” hamper your potential understanding, in my opinion. Building this knowledge individually feels pointless, idealistic, even. Because it lacks dialogue with other people that are living and applying those concepts, and risks giving you just a perspective based only on your own limited experience, instead of an actual grasp on the gradient of sociological ideas. Which is apparently what you are looking for.
Looks like you were bothered. Why? That might help figuring out the appropriate reaction.
Feels like you felt personally attacked for being the one they chose to cut in front to. If that’s the case, a clear “hey, please find somewhere else in the line to cut in front to” might be enough to get them to at least swap places with you. It acknowledges them, is polite, but firm.
I wasn’t aware of the controversy, but I’m not surprised it’s yet another mess caused by the existence of the British empire.
The AI generated videos are too real! It’s all fake! /s
That’s how I know it’s not satire. Nothing in his argument is tied into anything.
When I left reddit for lemmy I noticed that any instance blocking lemmygrad would become a shitshow very quick.
I regret nothing.
They never report casualties. Unless someone leaks irrefutable evidence. And even then. Not always.
My read is that:
dialectical relates to the tension between opposites. Pick “anything”, there’s something else in conflict with it, causing it to be, or not to be. This contrasts with a frictionless immutable analysis, where there’s no interaction between the “anything” you’re analysing and it’s surrounding context.
historical means that this analysis is applied to historical aspects of society.
materialism means that any support on the analysis must be originate in material reality, with as much context as possible. In contrast with idealism, which is kind of moral judgement on what things look like, or should be.
Am I too far off?
You guys ever plan to occupy Instagram/tiktok space?
For short term help you can probably- try to reach out to https://hexbear.net/c/mutual_aid or https://lemmygrad.ml/c/[email protected]. It’s the same I’m not sure how to link.
It could buy you some time. I’m sorry I can’t do much more.
Hey, welcome! I hope you find hope and support around here. :)
From each according to their skill, to each according to their needs!
We will get there. In the meantime we look for a way to survive and contribute to he cause I guess?
In the short term, are you looking for problem solving and advice, or just a safe space to vent?
They apparently have accidentally the whole thing.
That was entertaining, thank you.
the vessel was conducting training operations in preparation for her next deployment, when the flattop suffered an undisclosed mechanical mishap and had to be returned to port with the assistance of multiple tugs.
Is this from the sketch about “the front falling off”?
Are we ever going to get gpt-Marx? Or gpt-mao?
Would be nice to be able to counter shitty bits with friendly ai.

They are Iranian, Serbian and something else, if I’m not mistaken. An interesting mix.
Sacha Baron Cohen has its broken clock moments.
Sorted.
I’d suggest using industry standard (utm tracking codes) for that. I thought v=10 was a versoning parameter and didn’t remove it. :D
