I still have to finish Blank Slate by Steven Pinker
had it on audio and then my earphones broke
@Jakob-NY, after getting "red-pilled" I made a conscious effort to read more challenging books, literature included.
I am reading "Lincoln: the Man" by Edgar Lee Masters and Tim Andersen's "The Dirty War on Syria."
Moby Dick isn't particularly "hard" -- the language is a bit archaic but pleasantly so.
And a small book on local plants (not drugs)
and I've got two of Nietzsche's books I have to finish reading
reminder that we have a literature server
and it's not just for political/racial stuff
@Salo Saloson Croaker is a good narrator. The Lady is basically what would happen if Anime becomes real (nothing good)
I mean, The Lady isn't _that_ bad
Lady 2020
She's probably the last bad bad guy (woman in this case) out there. Although my mental image of her is some 80s-style sorceress with giant hair and skimpy clothing
I'm an aurtiste, so I don't always focus on literature (or older works). Trying to create art to provide an alternative to our pozzed culture is something we need more people doing
Apparently they are getting Eliza Dushku to play her. Real dumb miscast.
So few artists, so little time
I just read 4PT
It was quite bad
@OttoVonBismarck Your Duginist War Bride is en route
One of my favorite books beautifully written, and self glorifying. https://www.amazon.com/Reminiscences-Bluejacket-Books-Douglas-MacArthur/dp/1557504830/ref=sr_1_1?qid=1550462642&refinements=p_27%3ADouglas+MacArthur&s=books&sr=1-1&text=Douglas+MacArthur
I don't think the TV thing would work anyway. It'd just turn into a gimped Game of Thrones
I can't get into Dugin, not when the guy boils down, "Russia must reorient towards the East"
see, I like Vikings for the precise reason that they _didn't_ go gimped GoT. But then they did. And I hate that I enjoy the first couple seasons of the show.
Vikings is good to cut off at season 3
Like GoT cuts off at 4. So you can assume Stannis wins.
I enjoyed 4PT, but Dugin loses me with the geopolitical stuff.
Dugin's geopolitical ideas are kinda weird at times, but they seem to come entirely from a place of "we need to beat the Atlanticists."
For any Russian bots listening, Oklahoma is nowhere near the Atlantic. <:nervous:359009898115104770>
>American
>Atlanticists
They both start with "A", people! Open your eyes!
Is there a Russian Alex Jones equivalent?
@OttoVonBismarck what was wrong with it?
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Vladimir Zhirinovsky is pretty similar with his crazy rants
@Mojave Paisan - NV I will look him up for a laugh
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN Russia Insider has a lot of videos with him.
I love highlights from Memri-TV. The Muslim world is full of Alex Joneses
Is it bad optics that Im reading Myth of the Twentieth century
th-the podcast, surely you mean!? <:nervous:359009898115104770>
Everyone should read it just for historical purposes
Rosenburg brings up some great points
i have to check it out
he's a little spotty on historical accuracy. I think it's important to understand the mindset of the times though
