A very useful book I've found myself using is "How to Read a Book" (by Mortimer Adley).

2017-10-22 03:38:52 UTC  

Here's it is for anyone interested (if you want another format, ask)

We've had some discussion in <#362535345146953728> on making a list for reading. We need a service that allows members of this service to add and sort books by subject.

2017-10-22 20:22:40 UTC  

This should allow room for some chronology of books (like understanding different types of political ideas) and notes to guide people unfamiliar with those topics. The google document above is what may serve as a source of ideas for how to do this sort of organizing, I suppose.

The wanting seed is about an over populated world and the fall out because of it.

2017-10-23 21:19:06 UTC  

Homosexuality is publicly practiced by everyone since the state enforces it to limit the population

2017-10-23 21:19:13 UTC  

privately people are still heterosexual

2017-10-23 21:19:35 UTC  

eventually there's anarchy and everyone begins to eat each other

2017-10-23 21:19:52 UTC  

and finally a new government again comes back and begins a pointless war

2017-10-23 22:11:10 UTC  

You've read it yourself already?

2017-10-23 22:16:57 UTC  

@User yeah, I enjoyed it

2017-10-23 22:17:23 UTC  

it has a subtext that feels fitting for this group

2017-10-23 22:17:44 UTC  

Sounds like it is worth giving a read.

>Overpopulation

2017-10-23 22:44:52 UTC  

>It's all the white man's fault!

2017-10-23 22:45:02 UTC  

>White people should have less children haha!

2017-10-23 22:45:27 UTC  

>European countries facing population decline

2017-10-23 22:45:39 UTC  

>We need immigrants!

2017-10-24 00:22:59 UTC  

We should declare war for environmental reasons

2017-10-24 00:23:07 UTC  

Cull gooks and indians

2017-10-24 01:09:05 UTC  

declare war on lesser races

2017-10-24 01:09:14 UTC  

because are apes truly worthy of mankind's achievements

2017-10-24 02:13:24 UTC  

@Ammianus Marcellinus the arguement is always made through a point of pollution, that white people's wealth means they consume much more and pollute much more

2017-10-24 02:13:41 UTC  

and that having less white children will make a more "green" world

2017-10-24 02:14:24 UTC  

it probably be better though if we changed our lifestyles to be more independent and take a step back from hyper consumerism

2017-10-24 02:15:43 UTC  

Still, the same liberals cheer when 3rd world countries become wealthier and consume more

2017-10-24 02:16:11 UTC  

The west is producing less children, why not replace them with Nigger savages? They will eventually become hyper consumerists, Is that not the end goal?

2017-10-24 02:17:42 UTC  

This is what they are pushing for

2017-10-24 02:18:16 UTC  

Also, the most polluted countries in the world are third world shitholes

2017-10-24 02:20:13 UTC  

And since the 1800's Whites have been minorities

Hey guys, I don't have much free time to read novels and thus I'm not very well-read, but I'm interested in powering through one. If you could recommend me 1 book, what would it be?

2017-10-24 12:09:05 UTC  

The myth of the 20th century - rosenberg, or the myth (on YouTube)

2017-10-24 17:47:46 UTC  

depends on what you are interested in, if its the far north and animals i would reccomend "White Fang" or The Call of The Wild" both by Jack London. If you like India and british colonialism i would say "Kim" by Rudyard Kipling, he has really good short stories as well as being /ourguy/ (see: The White Mans Burden). If you like the high seas and adventure i would say "Moby Dick" by Herman Melville or "20,000 Leagues Under The Sea" by Jules Verne. If you like Man VS Nature i would highly reccomend "The Swiss Family Robinson" by Johann Wyss or "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe. There are a lot more but it all depends on where your interests lie, i spent most of my free time when i was 7-12 reading a lot of classic novels.

2017-10-24 18:00:26 UTC  

White Fang and The Call of the Wild were probably two of my favorite novels as a kid. So much nostalgia there. Moby Dick isn't all high seas and adventure, so I would watch out there, but 20,000 Leagues definitely is. Treasure Island is also a decent one, make sure you get an older version or you might get censored stuff. Also, first edition, unedited Lovecraft is good if you're looking for horror-of-the-unknown, but those are generally a good bit longer and harder to wander through. Dante's Inferno is worth a read, even if you don't believe, and the fact it's in poetic forms helps get through it quickly. Usually you can get it along with Purgatorio and Paradisio. I also personally liked The Island of Dr. Moreau, which is sci-fi and darwinist ~~racist cough~~ ideas.

Fight Club is a good short novel, even if you've already seen the movie.

2017-10-24 18:47:04 UTC  

Johnny Got His Gun by Trumbo is another good novel, I found it rather long but I read it when I was like 13. I've heard people have read it in less than a day at times. It's a classic that everyone should read at least once.

2017-10-24 18:47:35 UTC  

Another good book is Ishmael, by Daniel Quinn, which tries to look at the causes of civilization and the psychology required to make a civilization.

2017-10-24 18:47:44 UTC  

But it's a novel, which makes it more interesting, imo
