I finally got around to seeing “I Saw The TV Glow”, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

    Reading this book has made me think my transfeminism is equally as important as my Marxism-Leninism in ways that intersect, compliment and diverge at times.

    Like the relationship between Juche and Marxism-Leninism.

      have completely agreed with this for some time, transfeminism and gender accelerationism must be an integral part of any revolutionary neo-Marxism fit to carry us forward into a better world. dialectical philosophy in general has been super helpful for me to build my conception of my self and my gender too.

        Definitely I was sort of working things out by applying dialectical materialism to gender, but the book managed to summarise stuff I was already seeing the shape of.
