Ah, confused for a second time, I see.
I’m recommending reading leftist theory because it explains the things you’re confused about. I recommend actually reading something and forming a coherent thought before you worry about critical thinking. You might get into trouble if you rush things given how far down the rabbit hole you seem to be.

Marxism-Leninism is a literal cult, and “read more theory” is the chant they use to kill critical thought.
Those that doubt the Holy Theory are misguided counterrevolutionaries, and only the purest of yes-men that never question anything will join the glorious Vanguard Party™.

Reading a couple books won’t hurt you. You can read them and disagree, even. But the unwillingness to learn about a science that criticizes capitalism makes you much more of a cultist than any leftist.

There’s a reason you have to call it theory and why that theory gets bent like a pretzel whenever something runs counter to it. It must be correct because at its core it’s theology for the disillusioned. The material conditions weren’t right bro, trust me bro, just one more vanguard party bro, we’re gonna be stateless I promise, just need a little more critical support for these fascists bro…

Please, provide an argument instead of platitudes about “study more.” None of your posts contribute anything to do the discussion besides “read Marx.” Some of us already have done that.
