I dabble. I read Social Matter and Jacobite when I can, I like Myth20c, etc
wouldn't say I'm well-versed by any means
also learned a lot from reading Christopher Lasch and James Burnham, who aren't NRx but touched on a few of the themes well before NRx was a thing
Interesting.
I should check it out
Anything you might recommend?
"The Culture of Narcissism" by Lasch
very famous book on the American mindset in the 1970s
@Nemets I'm not sure if white people in California can be persuaded to vote Republican.
which was very prescient in my opinion
NRx, eh? I like monarchism ironically. It is the least threatening of the LARPs, and therefore easiest to indulge in, and also the least fruitful. Beats MMOs I guess.
yeet
and then Burnham's "The Managerial Revolution"
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN It's not a fully fleshed out ideology, or a complete worldview in my mind.
the general ideas and some especially some of the speakers are rather profound.
~~speakers~~ * thinkers
@Papa Pizzagate True. Japan and Ireland and Spain and India all had monarchs bit radically different systems.
@Nemets We can only hope.
I see your strikethrough
I cited Social Matter in an essay about Culture of Narcissism and got a "this is interesting" from my liberal (but very smart) history professor
the fire rises
I'll check it out. I'd heard the name before, but never read it myself.
Anytime I come across an idea/book/person 3 times organically, I kinda feel obliged to take a deeper look
you may not be blown away by the insights seeing as it's been 40 years, but I'd say it's still valuable
also that's a pretty good rule of thumb
she got redpilled
There is a picture of my hometown at that museum.
The food court there is overpriced but good. (sorry for pulling the "muh food")
who are you guys maining?
I used to play Larry Elder in Brawl, but I think that I'm going to main Tim Pool.
I'll use the Allsup / Lana Lokteff mod.
Dennis Pager's final smash is OP. Needs a nerf
Is that the one with the optimized UI @Wood-Ape - OK/MN ?
I'm maining James O'Keefe
Tim Pool is too pozzed
He'll get rekt like Moldylox
Gotta go with my boi harambe.
All of those characters are low tier
Ben Shapiro is as janky as sheik
What's the current meta, anyways?
