It's hard to tell when someone is being sarcastic online I don't blame them
I know it's a meme and a joke but there are optics to worry about, sadly.
I understand
We don't get the benefit of the doubt
ok, real book suggestion: The Culture of Narcissism by Christopher Lasch
it's not about race, but it's *extremely* prescient
some of the NRx thought out there draws from Lasch and James Burnham, I think
@sigruna14 The name just sounds edgy
Apparently the content is pretty mild
@Jacob Never read, but you know how the line would go: "IE recommends reading main book of Nazi terror group."
Can't expect fairness
Are we thinking of the same book?
Siege?

lol
LOL
no it's Greg Johnson's newest book
server admin gets to say the book name 😔
It was a better joke imo
lols
was there a comment that got deleted that I missed?
because I'm not sure how that escalated
mis-spelled meme about reading a certain violent propaganda book involving the mail
I jokingly made a reference to a book that's named after that thing you do to a castle or a city when you want to defeat the people inside
great book
@sigruna14 For the record, I don't think we should advocate reading Siege even if from a critical perspective. We should stay away from that kind of stuff all together. Not just for optics, but we don't want to normalize that kind of stuff anywhere near us.
Yeah I haven't read it I just see memes about it all the time on telegram
yeah I was being 100% ironic. Lots of much more intellectual and useful reading out there
had to read it for a history report
its a different book lol
@Jacob I agree. The optics thing, I was referring to an infiltrator taking a meme posted as a joke and misrepresenting it as a serious recommendation to read the book.
i understand but i dont think you can misinterpret and entirely different book as the other book. wont happen again though.
read "Why We Fight." In the original French, *of course*
What's you guys's opinion on wojak memes
