To summarise the text I attached… Trust the resistance. If it feels like you are forcing something that doesn’t fit, that is probably what you are doing. What are you actually trying to learn? Not “study theory” but what do you want to understand?
learning about socialism and studying it without losing focus quickly or having my head spin. seriously!
You keep asking “how do I get better at the thing that doesn’t work for me” and I am saying “stop doing the thing because it isn’t the only or ‘correct’ way of doing things," not that there is a correct way. You aren’t asking the right questions or starting with questions if you are stuck here. Start figuring you what you want to know.
what do you mean by that?
You keep asking me: “How do I study theory better?” But, theory, as you say, makes your head spin. You lose focus. You can’t find words to summarize it. So my question back is: Why are you trying to force yourself to study theory? What do you actually want to understand? Not “I want to study socialism,” because socialism itself is just a method. Socialism is a tool, not an answer. A hammer without a nail. What questions do you have? What do you want to know about the world? What problems do you care about and want to solve? What do you care about and why? Once you know what you want to understand, learning becomes effortless.
ps: always happy to soundboard :)
