The Purpose

I created Simplifying Socialism because I was tired of watching good people get fed watered-down politics, corporate media narratives, and “common sense” that only serves the powerful. Working people deserve clear explanations, honest history, and political tools that actually matter.

My goal here is to translate complex ideas—Marxism, political economy, imperialism, state violence—into accessible writing without losing depth or revolutionary content. I’m not here to preach; I’m here to help people understand the conditions we live in and how we can organize to change them.

If you’re trying to build class consciousness, sharpen your political understanding, or connect your anger to strategy, you’ll feel at home here.
