I’ve been doing research into the German rights to strike, civil disobedience and resistance (the german constitution actually grants a right to resistance if the constitution is threatened), and it has been an interesting rabbit whole to go down, especially considering how hostorically resistance in the third reich took long to actually be viewed as such and not as treason by the population. I’m now reading up on Pacifism. Thinking these two together seems very relevant.

I’ve been inspired by Sharjeel Imam to read a tafsir (exegesis) of the Holy Quran.

I’m about to read the section on Commodity Fetishism in The Capital.

I didn’t like the “x commodity A = y commodity B” notation. It doesn’t leave it very clear that “xA = yB” is not equivalent to “yB = xA”. Not a deal-breaker though.
