Not op, but very good, kinda economic/political theory books, he was probably most famous for "Bullshit Jobs" , but "Debt: The first 5000 years" also holds up especially well.

    Ah, interesting... That completely changes how I interpreted the message. I thought it was just like "stop using social media for quick dopamine, read long form books" but it's like "stop using Twitter and learn how money actually works" type of message.

    It's less "learn how money works" and more "learn different ways society has been organized, which will enable you to imagine ways in which you can change it for the better"

    But yeah he was a great author, highly recommend
