Dude, Jared is such a great guy
Totally unassailable

Even in countries with few jews (Ukraine, Bulgaria, FYROM) have lots of issues with corruption
pietism and protestantism really improved the parts of E Euro that they went into

That's horrific.
@Jacob just to be clear we are supposed to read up to "Of Means and Ends" or through it?
Through
I started reading the book last night, I'm only 20 pages in but did anyone else crack up at the judge and lawyer story?
"Fuck you, Campbell."
@shekelsworth I didn’t understand that all that well
Sounds like the lawyers got shut down
Well he was making a point about how they failed to make change through their actions.
They shoah'd themselves
I can already tell this book is going to be fantastic for what we're dealing with today. I'm not even through the prologue, and already the author has addressed the importance of optics and distancing ourselves from "self stereotype people", aka the alt right and it's LARPers. "
Idk his beliefs are founded on equality, justice, etc and so it seems his layout for revolution might not be achievable without this.
Democracy is the means and not necessarily the ends, is something he eventually says.
And the goal for revolution should be the quality for all. So I don't know if he believes revolutions could be achieved for the your own group.
He's a socialist and that's what he sees as the ideal world. He has good points like the separation of ideology and dogma.
I don't know though I could be reading this very incorrectly.
@shekelsworth he's a far leftist and probably a commie. When I bought this book, books that were "frequently bought" with it was the Communist Manifesto. I shit you not.
We need to use the methods that Marxists have used to become successful. That's why this book is a great read for any activist honestly.
