'ello guvna. Feeling crushed under the crippling weight of capitalism's chaos? You're not alone. Let's yap about The Tragic Optimist's Guide to Surviving Capitalistic Nihilism—a journey through despair, hope, and the absurdity of it all. We'll unpack the mental traps of modern society, explore the wisdom of thinkers like James Baldwin, and discover how to embrace optimism without turning a blind eye to the struggles around us. Because surviving capitalism isn't just about existing—it's about finding meaning amidst the madness. Hope has never been a popular thing. But that doesn't mean it's not worth the attempt.

Even tho the parts are not divided by chapters, I suppose they can be more or less categorised as follows

• Part 1 - Preface by Extinction Rebellion
• Part 2 to 5 - historical analysis
• Skip parts 6, 7, 8 because they are the same as part 1
• Part 9 to 12 - analysis of contemporary times & practical systemic change suggestions
