Found your problem.

You are insecure and/or uneducated. You should unironically ask /leftypol/ for some book recommendations.

The Manifesto is essentially a pamphlet and it's a good place to start if you didn't read it in school. Emma Goldman's Ansrchism essay and Berkman's ABC of Anarchy are good starting points in anarchy. I don't know much about Marxism-Leninism, but The State and Revolution is the typical beginner's book after The Manifesto.

If you want to understand Marxian economics, Professor Richard D. Wolff is (somewhat unfortunately) the most famous Marxian economist in the U.S., and he has several introductory lectures available on YouTube, plus a weekly program for current events.

I can suggest more, but the collaborative power of /leftypol/ will put to shame any list I come up with. They'll also be able to give you more non-leftist works, as well, as I would assume you'd like to hear all sides.

Also, I'll add "The Conquest of Bread" by Kropotkin. Along with Mutual Aid

Wow, I can't believe I forgot them. I meant to suggest them after Goldman and Berkman.

Anarchism and Marxism-Leninism are far from the only leftist ideologies, but they're the easiest to start with.

OP, if there's anything more specific you want to know, ask me about it and I'll do my best.

I don't think either of you could be any more wrong.
