Fell down a rabbit hole and ended up finding the Luna oi! YT channel, a glowing recommendation from YaBoiHakim, and then this free ebook English translation of The Worldview and Philosophical Methodology of Marxism-Leninism Part 1 originally authored by the N Vietnam education ministry. Luna has seemingly been the first to translate this work and it serves as a very concise, streamlined overview of ML from a formalized NV perspective.

Ofc at the time of posting archive.org is down, the backup is here: https://github.com/NonCompeteCoop/The-Worldview-and-Philosophical-Methodology-of-Marxism-Leninism/tree/main

And the Luna oi! video I originally landed on: https://youtu.be/neI-ol2AowM

    We had a reading club of this book a while back. Excellent book. It actually breaks down what dialectical materialism is instead of going "base and superstructure," which isn't even dialectical materialism but historical materialism.

      I will look for the thread, I am hoping to find the time to organize a local Socialist reading club and this sounds like a great potential text to lead with.
