I've already read quite a bit of Marx. I wouldn't mind reading something that takes on capitalism from a more philosophical (rather than just economical/practical) standpoint. Or even something more modern, perhaps about the most recent economic crisis - and/or injustice in a world of capitalistic ideals.

You understood nothing.
Read Engels: Anti-Dühring; Feuerbach; From utopian socialism to scientific socialism.

My first sentence wasn't related to the second, if that's your point.
Thanks btw. I'll look it up.

They do relate to each other. Marx's critic is philosophical in itself. Dialectical materialism is a philosophical sistem. Wether you understand this or not is crucial to an adequate understanding of marxist critique.

"The Capital" with the help of video lectures by David Harvey. It's his 40th year of teaching the same exact class, albeit with different groups of students, i.e. one year he had a literary studies group, the other he had a political science group, etc. In the introduction he mentions that he gained great insight from all those discussions.

Yeah go to Russia you stupid shit. Or North Korea. After that go live in China. Then take your anti-capitalism approach and jam it as far as you can up your edgy virgin asshole.
