I have been using AntennaPod for a long time! It works great for me.

I don't agree with your framing. What is important is not to shame leftists with higher income, without centering them. Higher income leftists should quietly support the voices of the worst off, ideally, and avoid centering themselves.

My only suggestion is that much of Errico Malatesta's writings are better than Conquest of Bread. Don't take Conquest of Bread too seriously, in my opinion.

I just want to thank you, I always liked Lemmur more than any alternative and missed it. I am happy to see the project brought back to life.

I'm enjoying The Anarchic Order. All three writings are available online from The Anarchist Library, but these translations are original and I like having a physical book sometimes. He was a contemporary of Proudhon and Stirner and was an early proponent of individualist anarchism, with similar arguments to Benjamin Tucker. I consider the anarchist manifesto in this book to be a better introduction to individualist anarchism than anything by Tucker. He is critical of Proudhon and lumps him in with other socialists, but doesn't engage in a detailed critique of specific other thinkers so I need to spend more time comparing his anti-statism to Proudhon's to understand why.

The Sociology of Proudhon is good, although I am only starting that. The biography of Proudhon was interesting, and explained his interest in theology that comes up a lot in his writings. Proudhon's ideas about history being essentially chaotic but guided centrally towards man's moral nature reminded me of something similar Albert Camus said in the Rebel.

 

I am reading "The Anarchic Order" by Anselme Bellagarrigue and "The Sociology of Pierre Joseph Proudhon" by Constance Margaret Hall.
