Gut flora aren't diseases but yeah my initial post referred to bacteria and viruses in general, suggesting that eliminating all of such would have adverse consequences even bacteria which are common and even beneficial in one part of the body can cause serious diseases when introduced to others; i'd imagine a similar case can be made for viruses, but i'm admittedly not as informed on the matter --- |

TheMikh 02/13/21 5:57:17 AM #39 | OANn posted... Now with that said, i've been invited to read Karl Marx and Mao Zedong but afraid too because my reading level may be at college level but my ability to break down and refute propaganda is limited at best. i have yet to read mao, though his genius supposedly lied in military tactics. i'd imagine he was politically savvy as well, but his economic implementations left much to be desired to say the least. if i had a lot of reading time on my hands i'd probably take a deep dive on the philosophies of his successors, particularly deng, jiang, hu, and xi. as for marx, the communist manifesto is pretty short and shallow, but his magnum opus is kapital. the latter, however, is very dry and misses the forest for the trees with respect to the question of economic value. lenin is more interesting to read than marx imo. i'd also like to explore gramsci at some point if time and energy permitted. I'm jealous of the work you did TheMikh. Do you have a Masters or PhD? I am not trying to be a goober (southern term for a loveable jerk or goof off who wants attention.) i didn't do graduate studies in history, but have spent a lot of my spare time reading sociology, history, autobiographies - particularly older works - pertaining to black american history and historical figures among other topics, perhaps to have a more comprehensive understanding of what it means to black in america myself. to return to your earlier point, to avoid the propagandization you're concerned about in general, older books - nonfiction works ideally written by historical figures themselves or impartial contemporaries - are the best way to go. this is not to say primary source authors do not have their biases, and so it's good to delve into a myriad of "counterpoint" writings for lack of better words - authors critiquing the ideas of other authors/ideas of a different school of thought - to add additional dimensions to understanding of a topic. as a rule, the ideals some authors put forth may be flawed or shortsighted at times, but their criticisms of others' points tend to be particularly illuminating. --- |

TheMikh 02/13/21 5:07:37 AM #36 | cjsdowg posted... @cjsdowg while i'm also disappointed that he grossly mischaracterized du bois's ideas, i strongly recommend that you take the time to do in-depth research/reading of booker t. washington for a better understanding of his life, work, and ideas. he was absolutely not the dreadful term that you used to refer to him. though time has a way of oversimplifying how people are perceived, the real story is always far more nuanced. --- |

TheMikh 02/13/21 4:55:24 AM #35 | my thoughts as the video progressed:
