I lied 2 of them didn’t read it and they were actually leftists. The one that did actually read most of it if I recall wasn’t even a leftist but a liberal Vietnamese-American friend who actually went out of his way to find it online after I mentioned it and discovered readsettlers.org and read most of it there and then didn’t read the rest when I gave him the book but w/e it’s a success if u ask me. except for the fact that Last time politics came up he was really into Andrew Yang. Despite that, he did tell me how much he enjoyed it and he especially found the section on the Chinese workers in California to be very eye opening. I think the problem was he didn’t finish it, and probably just sees American history being especially more fucked up but that’s already sort of integrated into liberal identity politics. It’s the later parts of the book that are really radical.

The Karl Marx Koran is for level 90 communists and above.

In both cases you need to start with biographies of the Prophet Muhammad and Karl Marx to get the context that would inform their later masterpieces plus there are cool adventures to read about like running from the police
