  • I'm glad to see that most of my assumptions were confirmed and that the answer to this isn't so black and white, but very much gray.

    Build a 3-6 months wage rainy day fund, if possible, and then budget how you spend the rest of your money including a monthly contribution to the party or something.

    I do this now, I have OCD and have issue with spending money anyway so I save most of it lol

    I’d rather invest in ETFs myself

    Never heard of ETFs before now, it actually sounds way better than the stock market.

  • Spot on and well said, just what I was hoping to hear. Thanks for the reply.

  • Formal help is an option, but obviously expensive. Government provided mental health help just does nothing as usual.

  • I left my economics university when I was doing exercises in my workbook and saw a text that essentially read "unions cripple the economy and therefore must be eradicated". There were some good lectures on macro and micro economics, but were so insanely capitalistic that I couldn't stand it anymore.

  • My pipeline was through Hasan (however I've been a lefty my entire life), his subreddit had a pinned link tree with socialist resources where I found thedeprogram and then through that found lemmy. That said I'm not as big of a fan of him as I used to be, just grew out of it.

  • Nicely put thank you!

  • Ask Lemmygrad @lemmygrad.ml

    How do you not despair?

  • The Deprogram Podcast @lemmygrad.ml

    Podcast recommendations?

  • So in essence there isn't a genocide happening, but there are still human rights violations since people are being forced to attend the vocational re-education schools? I haven't fully read the Red Sails article yet, most of my knowledge comes from this BadEmpenada video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz9ICFDk8Js

  • That was essentially my response, told him that it was probably an American source and we took a look together. As soon as he saw that he knew it wasn't accurate.

  • Ask Lemmygrad @lemmygrad.ml

    Thoughts on Kim Yo Jong?

  • Already made a post in the freechat community, but want to get some thoughts here as well. I’m currently going through the Prolewiki reading list for beginners, after I finish it I would love to read up on the Russian revolution. Not looking for a massive tome, but something in between being general but not overly specific and dense that I can’t get through in let’s say a month or 2. Thanks!

    Further reading on the Russian revolution?

  • I needed to ask to get clarification because I was like "what the fuck are you saying". The Deprogram did an episode recently with SovietPod I believe where they mentioned this exact thing of liberals/anti-communist spewing that the bolsheviks were undemocratic. Glad my hunch wasn't incorrect, thanks for the reply!

    Influencer says the Charlie Kirk assassination is similar to the attempted Lenin assassination

  • Definetly saving this post for future references and books, much appreciated!

  • Fantastic thank you! What if certain statements are made that have contradicting sources, which source do you then trust?

  • What is considered a verifiable source? For instance certain studies are funded by lobies that want a certain result from that study and will affect the final results because of that, how do I determine if those funded studies are actually worth trusting?

    How can I determine what I'm reading/watching/listening about is true?
