Before you go, could you repeat where we can find your current work?

The Market Revolution is a history of the expansion of the consumer market into every facet of the American life from roughly 1815 to the Civil War. Charles Sellers is obviously a Marxist, but there are critical elements of truth to his writing. A couple critiques: there were certainly other integral factors at play in shaping the American and the Southern psyches during this time; Sellers probably gives a little too much power to this market revolution. Also, Sellers distinguishes between two groups that he calls the Arminians and the Antemonians, one being for and the other against the Market Revolution. However, he gets the groups backwards in this book.
That said, this book helps the reader grasp the power of the market over those within its hegemony and therefore has a wealth of information relevant to us.
I would follow the Market Revolution with Liberty and Power by Harry Watson. Where Sellers explains the nature of the Market Revolution, Watson describes and analyzes the results of it. He explains how the rise of market capitalism was not always equated with liberty, rather, many saw it as a vehicle of tyranny. There are elements of the Whig and Democrat platform here which I agree with. But that is with the benefit of hindsight. And, of course, this all takes place within an American democratic paradigm, but there is a wealth of information in this relatively short book (for an academic history) that will help shape the ideology and historiographical thinking of its readers
Weimar Culture by Peter Gay is a great an easy path to understanding why and how such a huge backlash against liberal democracy took place in Germany. Peter Gay is an obvious sympathizer to Weimar culture, and often you find him asking: โHow could people turn against such a rich and progressive society?โ He gives histories of the Expressionst art school which totally perverted Romantic art. He also describes the (((Psychoanalytic Institute))) and many of its (((contemporaries))) who wanted a โdeeper understanding of the human conditionโ. This book provides great examples of how the hollowness of Weimar โcultureโ failed to resonate with young intelligent Germans and how the moral bankruptcy of the new (((intelligentsia))) horrified so many normal Germans and enabled counter revolutionary movements to succeed.

@Mick I read a pretty good synthesis of Russian history from the Kievan Rus all the way to Putin a couple years ago. Next time Iโm near it, Iโll send you a pic of the cover. I read it with almost now background info though, so if you know a lot about Russian history, you might not be a big fan

Everybody needs to read this essay
This book is a nice short and concise history of the reign of Peter the Great. Sumner demonstrates how Peter Romanov converted, against most of his peopleโs will, Russia from a strange and archaic kingdom into a much more westernized empire.
@Mick This isnโt the comprehensive book I was talking about but I ran across it and thought it might be a good addition to your bundle
^As if complaining about gay marriage is wrong
I believe homosexuality is spiritually cancerous. And itโs absolutely anti-natal. So many of these people in the millennial and Z generations that are gay wouldโve just been โsissiesโ in generations past before all the pro gay propaganda which is now government approved. They would have gotten married and had a couple kids a piece too.

Why canโt I hear anything

Natives at the venue are super cool. We got pulled over by the cops in town in 2017 and they let us go after they found out weโre were there with Amren
@Mr Snow Gray Fox is supposed to be a good biography on him. I havenโt read it but I was told itโs great by somebody I trust on such matters
The authorโs name is Burke Davis

Some Charlie Kirk-style savagery!
Of course, but I like to see that box smiling at me when I open my latest book from countercurrents
Any updates on *The Identitarian*?
