This series is criminally underrated
Saw her "X", she's 'been busy. Congratulations DT. Yeah I'd let her explain Marx. Can't wait to see book 2
I second what another commenter said, this channel is criminally under rated.
I’m going in on capital again - I’ll try using these vids as a guide. Thanks.
Hope they help
I was looking for chapter-wise lectures to supplement my reading of all 3 volumes. You're a savior!!!
Thanks so much for those videos! The best I've come across so far, by far - both politically and the general quality and visual material. I find them super useful and appreciate the work that went into them. :)
Really looking forward to watching this series! I’ve read some of Capital before but even as someone who has read a decent amount of other theory it’s still pretty rough lol. I’m sure these videos took A TON of time and effort but would you ever consider doing similar guides to other difficult theory?
I laughed a little bit too much at the linen and coat meme... you forgot about wheat and iron though! Great vid, keep it up!
Ha Ha! Thanks for the feedback, much appriciated!
Wow just dicovered your channel! Thx
Thanks for making these videos..... From India
Nice, too many people just hit you with "just read Marx bruh" without telling you to learn about the context it was written in
Are you going to do volumes 2 and 3?
I would say look to michael heinrich and david harvey for help with the rest, I think they have some guides to volumes 2 and 3
They're linked in the description actually!
Is this channel dead? I noticed no recent uploads. Love the content btw!
Hey! Nope, not dead. The next chapter is probably the largest and most complicated one for me to edit and unfortunately coincided with a lot of other commitments. I'm still working on it though and hopefully will be uploaded soon :)
What did Karl Marx say about Planned Obsolescence and the depreciation of durable consumer goods?
Yeah, we have moved on from linen and coats to internet controlled microwave ovens.
