Kinda concerned I either won’t get an analysis of his ideology, or it’s just not worth analyzing. Feels like the abraxas clique is the real target of the book anyway, which might be more worthwhile?

Love the info, don’t mind the overall structure (so far), not a fan of the way Sunshine weaves in stuff he hasn’t talked about yet. It’s not even really as if he’s saying “you should know about this already”, it just invites so much unnecessary cross referencing. Not super well-edited either

Ultimately I think I’m gonna be slightly disappointed. The subject might just be a moron

Her writing style is right at the edge of academic while still super readable

Way into this

Intro is kinda 👊👊💦 but I didn’t hate it. Bataille seems catty as hell. Really want this to get to his thoughts about surrealism rather than his thoughts about surrealists

Really tough going at the beginning but I feel like I’m starting to get into a groove. I’m still rebelling against the order in which this is presented though. Stopping to read something she structured herself was helpful

The section on woman’s work, which is deplorable in Kropotkin’s mind, being solved by machines is very funny. Not even the slightest concept of men, idk, helping with the chores?

Pyotr’s also so fuckin cunty when it comes to talking about state communists, it rules

Lotta hand waving about the whole revolution part of things. I find his theories on how people could organize society to be eminently plausible. Just wish there was more thought put into how to get there. He actually comes off as kinda petulant
