i will watch that after I get done with this shit i'm working on right now
@Mother true enough. I noticed the slowdown after I became less active. But I don't think it's only that. After all, my participation was mostly organizaional (setting up and promoting the hangouts).
I think as the Trump campaign is over, we are moving away from shitposting, and more toward building something lasting.
It's a shame I couldn't attend the last hangout, as I was really curious to hear what your views on near/mid/long term goals of the alt-right are
This is as good a spot as any to build something lasting.
My view is that we need to carve out a space we can own. My suggestion here would be "deep culture" - education and ideology building. Hence the projects @Jossi and I are working on - the nationalist reading club and the other thing (not sure if we announced it already, so I'll keep it quiet for now)
We should continue that talk and make it a part of the book reading with @Jossi
That I'm reading today, coincidentally.
im wondering how many people read imagined communities and how many people will read (or have read) Master and Margarita
I'm reading it now Aventeer. I'm on "Book 1"
i was a lit nerd from a very young age, but didn't hear about M&M until grad school
So essentially the story is divided into two pieces.
Because the Soviets tried destroying his work.
cool. well i'm thinking of doing two book hangouts per month, on on the 15th and one on the 30th (or close to it)
yea, the backstory on the book is fascinating
he had to destroy it or go to the gulag
then he reproduced it, but it wasn't published until about 1976 due to political reasons
he had already died, but his wife got it and another book of his called Heart of a Dog published
@HeimatFreiheitTradition we can probably announce the other thing right now. i don't know what we are waiting for really, but if youi want to hold off on announcing it for some reason that's cool with me
ah, I just wanted to check with you
no constraints from my side
We're setting up an online course that @Jossi is going to teach.
If you're STEM, it will be the missing part of your education.
A reconnection to roots and tribal history.
A cultural grounding.
it's a 4 part Western Civ class starting with the movement off the Aryan Plateau in Iran and heading into EUrope. the classes will cover every major event in east, central and western europe from 500 BC to aD 1991
essentially it will be what i do now, only with a few tweeks
I advertise my class as "the toughest class you'll ever love" so we can probably do that with this course as well. my students always start off hating me, then by the end of the class I have glowing reviews. most of the students love learing who they are and what their ancestors did b/c i connect them to the events in Europe
Oh wow.
So you're offering it how exactly?
As a free class people enroll in?
no people will have to pay, i need an income too ya know, 😃 but we're going to offer it online through udemy.com i think is what ti's called
I have a lot of projects going on right now, incase you're wondering, or wondering why i don't write mroe for Gazr 😃
No, I get that.
We'll promote the course on Gazr for you even.
that would be awesome
hopefully it will be available soon, like by March 1st or so. but i have to create the course materials and now I find out that the lectures can be 10 mins each so yea... gonna be interesting
so informal survey of the group: how many of you would buy an audio book for 25$ before you'd buy the kindle version for $5
i ask b/c i am working on recording an audio book version of my right wing sci fi short stories
and if it gets enough DL i'm going to create audio books of my longer work
