I'm asking for book recommendations in understanding Social Democracy through a Marxist perspective, particularly European Social Democracy.

Book recommendations on the history and development of Social Democracy in Europe and the continued exploitation of the global south by the Social Democratic countries of Europe

I know they had Hoxha and even though I disagree with some of his criticisms(like calling Guevara an adventurist for traveling to other countries to help with Revolution, absolutely small brain take) I didn’t understand why Albania fell in 1992. They were not the Soviet Union, they weren’t in the Warsaw pact for long and were not Yugoslavs, so why did they fall? Was it lack of support from the USSR after it had fallen, because I had heard that was the main cause of DPRK’s Arduous March? Was Albanian Socialism a good system? What were the issues and what went right(I know that Hoxha helped bring electricity not much else I know)

Perhaps I’m making a generalization, but from what I hear these people were the most comfortable with Western ideas and bourgeoisie domination. Is this true, because the Imperial Core has awful lies about the USSR and I’d like to know more about the USSR accurately, even the Westernmost areas. I might as well toss GDR in as well, basically just lmk about Western USSR bc I have literally little to zero knowledge of the policy or differentiations of these SSRs, thanks

I felt like doing a bit of front-end for fun this weekend, so I made a browser for archive.

Was too lazy to set up any server-side software, this downloads the whole archive (~10MB compressed) and processes it in browser before displaying posts, so it might take some time for initial load and not work well on your microwave.

It looks like some of the comments from very deep branches have not been saved in the backup, likely in cases where reddit would give the "Show X more". Oh, and I've left all the somewhat-deleted cancer in. Like this wonderful post.

Since this is supposed to be archive of r/GenZhou and the creator has all the posts until 2022-03-29 here is an archive

Link seems to break when in the “URL”, so here it is, in plaintext:

What's the plan of idea here? Are we supposed to manually post stuff?

Mostly short primers or articles on what actually went down that isn't western propaganda (book recs are good too). Basically the mini-series came up in conversation the other night and everyone was talking about the disaster as if having watched TV made them a bunch of nuclear experts, extremely aggravating. I'm relatively ignorant on the subject so I'd like to learn more.

Something that’s been in my mind recently. Shit looks like it’s going to hit the fan over the next several years. Seeing how easily the population has slipped into a Russophobic rage through disinformation and propaganda shows that the seeds for fascism have already been planted here. This country’s government does everything to actively suppress communist movements and are attempting to exhaust Marxist-Leninist efforts.

I have developed two reactions to this, one cynical and one more optimistic, but I struggle to tell which one is closer to reality. The cynical side of me thinks that this country has fallen too far into the deep end and can’t be saved, that communism cannot happen in a place like this, and it’s better to leave and start elsewhere than stay and possibly die at the hands of fascists. The other part of me believes that choice could be cowardly, and it is better to stay and create communist infrastructure and protect the marginalized.

At least in classical Marxist texts there is a focus between class divisions and the inequalities that come with those those divisions. I have been thinking about the economic differences within the working class and if those differences would cause any divisions after the revolution and into socialism. I know communism isn’t egalitarian in that we all get the same pay and things like that, I was just wondering if those differences would have us regress back into class society.

I don't really understand too much of Europe's relation to America. The current situation in Ukraine is clearly not in EU's favor. They would have to deal with refugees, an angered Russian neighbor, expensive LNG from the USA, and possibly more segmented trading blocs that does not benefit them.

Yet Germany just took the boot to the head like a dog. This would have been more understandable when there was no alternatives to the US in the 90s perhaps, but as of today whats stopping the EU from looking out for their own interests and working with RU or CN if thats what they need? Why so subservient? And if so, why not any moves to at least stand up for itself? The EU and the Euro is definitely in jeopardy now.

Is it literally because of NATO and EU has a terrible army? Is it because they don't have any of the technological dominance and shares too much of it's cyber networks with the USA (unlike RU and CN which has their own ecosystem)? I am super confused at the lack of them even speaking up for their own interests...
