speaking of joko

2017-09-20 22:43:06 UTC  

im currently listening through this ^, the author is a bit blue pilled on race, but it's a very fascinating account of all the catastrophic problems convering on America and modern civilization as a whole.

2017-09-20 22:49:48 UTC  

Took some caps of rec'd reading and infodumps from SIG, want me to post them here?

2017-09-20 23:01:32 UTC  

yeah reading lists are welcome, however dont dump inforgraphics, theyre usually little use to anyone that way, rather post one when its relevant to some discussion

2017-09-20 23:08:03 UTC  

Currently reading 2 books, one on the finnish winterwar and the other on Sparta. Next is Yukio Mishima's Sun and Steel! 😄

2017-09-20 23:10:11 UTC  

Good taste

2017-09-20 23:22:55 UTC  

oh man, is there a pastebin for these

2017-09-20 23:35:54 UTC  

@Orchid found it

2017-09-21 01:48:40 UTC  

Jared Diamond? Isn't that the man who wrote Guns, Germs and Steel?

2017-09-21 01:48:46 UTC  

^^ this is from the guy who wrote guns germs and steel so take his stuff with a grain of salt, how ever he is very good at observing societies and cultures and his writing is good

2017-09-21 01:48:56 UTC  

yep

2017-09-21 01:49:57 UTC  

Ah. Gotcha. I'll give it a look over

2017-09-21 01:51:43 UTC  

im only half way through world until yesterday, so far it basically talks about how small tribal cultures resolve conflicts and deal justice,
How societies collapse is a historical retelling of past cultures that got wiped out such as easter island and some isolated viking tribes, and tries to find connections between all of them

2017-09-21 01:54:33 UTC  

You would like: "On Heroes, Hero Worship and The Heroic in History" by Thomas Carlyle. It's what I'm reading right now

2017-09-21 01:57:20 UTC  

interesting, i would like that

2017-09-21 01:58:10 UTC  

It's from the late 1800s if I'm not mistaken, so the writing is a bit hard to mount if you're not used to reading it, but it's intelligible enough once you start going.

2017-09-21 01:58:57 UTC  

Here's the ebook

2017-09-21 03:24:56 UTC  

I would like to generally put forth three classic Sci-Fi books, if you haven't read them already:
George Orwell's _1984_, Aldous Huxley's _Brave New World_, and Ray Bradbury's _Fahrenheit 451_. In that order, given their relevance. If you must pick only one, do choose _1984_. I'll be working to find a PDF for everyone, in case you don't have the means to purchase it or it's banned/restricted.
And yes, I know it's likely most people here have read this, but given the impact these books have and the parallels there are, I find it important to make sure.

2017-09-21 03:25:45 UTC  

Great list, I was going to suggest Orwell as well as Brave New World too.

2017-09-21 03:26:10 UTC  

1984 is definitely the most important.

2017-09-21 03:45:22 UTC  

Jack Donovan. Start with 'the way of men' and 'becoming a barbarian'

2017-09-21 03:45:46 UTC  

^ i just bought way of men, gonna read soon

2017-09-21 15:48:55 UTC  

Cool, you won't be disappointed. It's a quick book but packed with good info. I'm working my way through 'a sky without eagles' currently, it's a collection of his speeches and essays on a good variety of topics.

2017-09-24 20:03:05 UTC  

I was very disappointed with Becoming a Barbarian.

2017-09-24 20:03:34 UTC  

The Way of Men was amazing and the second was rage tear of a cringy Neo-Pagan.

2017-09-24 20:03:43 UTC  

ew

2017-09-24 20:03:58 UTC  

Along with a 'dindu nuffin' ethics system.
