my personal beef with theory is how fucking boring it is to read. that's the author's fault not the theory. they write like they're trying to defend their PhD thesis. honey, the average reading level out here is 6th grade. David Graeber is the most "get to the fucking point" and in a funny way.

Yeah it's ultimately a scholarly justification and explanation for ethos, which is not a thrilling page turner. Important but not the gateway into leftist ideology it's cracked up to be imo
