Social media, Netflix, TV, movies... that's for human garbage.
Read books to improve your life. Not garbage grocery store romance novels or best-selling pleb shit, but important books. No scifi or fantasy escapist trash either. Read books that make you think.
What kind of books have you read lately? What kinds of books do you like?
Here are some books I like: 1984 Brave New World Fahrenheit 451 Amusing Ourselves to Death Society of the Spectacle Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media Can Life Prevail? Propaganda Walden Th Ego and Its Own Authority and the Individual The Machine Stops Technological Slavery Crime and Punishment The Collapse of Western Civilization
Books I plan on reading: Animal Farm The Will to Power The Degenerate Society: Postmodernism And How You Can Oppose It The Panopticon Writings Beyond Good and Evil The Decline of the West Why Nations Fail Revolt Against the Modern World Democracy: The God That Failed Men Among the Ruins: Post-War Reflections of a Radical Traditionalist
I read a lot of programming books too, though you'll notice that I didn't list any here. Even though it's the industry I'm in, I can't help but feel like tech is soulless bugman shit that is accelerating the rise of degeneracy in the west.
Ideologically-driven books are the most captivating. They're the kinds of books that make you want to read them cover to cover.
But enough about my taste in books. So what do you like? And what would you recommend reading?

>>135 This book is greenpilled on astral parasites, even if its garbage-level scifi. Many think of astral parasites as dumb predatory leeches, but they're in fact organized and smart in quantity - they're telepathic and have a hive mind of sort(the idea of egregores is close). Mental illness and demonic possession are one and the same thing, astral parasite infestation.

>>161 Ironically the only thing preventing total mind parasite takeover is certain mantra-like language constructs that repel their energies or cause them damage, and that book fixation on telepathy and psychokinesis is completely ineffective as defense, in fact telepathy is opening mental circuits that are normally closed and defended by the mind("closed mind"), while psychokinesis is wasting energy for external objects.
>>167 Very cool book stack. Hope you've read at least half of them by next month.

>>167 Are you sure foundation of geopolitics isn't just some boomers rambling? Seems to me like fan fiction. It isn't even translated.

>>170 My brother rec'd it to me along with Thinking in Systems, but he confessed that he only read the wikipedia article (and already become impressed by it).
It does seem untranslated after I searched for it though.
I might get it in russian and machine translate it if I must.
>>172 Alexander Dugin is a crazy neo-nazi scumbag. Reading his garbage is like watching Alex Jones. In fact, Dugin was a founding member of a Russian national socialist organization NBP - national-bolshevik party. Its goals were the same as of NSDAP.
I am not interested in goals, but in useful information. Black-and-white discarding an author because his goals don't align with mine would be such a waste of grey matter.
I also don't know where to stand on the political spectrum yet (mostly because I severely lack knowledge of history, as I fully admit). My state would be transparent, full accountability for any public position, non-public persons should have their privacy and reputation guaranteed, even if they commit crime. And a restorative judicial system, where after damage is recognized it attempts to reverse it to the burden of the offender and his family ties in a breadth-first search fashion. No one ever goes to jail, because it is such a waste of public resources. Irreversible damage might be tricky to deal with, but nothing justifies the amount of waste I see being done in current epoch.

I am saving up a lot by printing books, especially english books not available in portuguese, since dollar is so expensive currently.
I printed 1169 pages, 585 sheets, only about 230R$, or 46$, which on amazon would have cost me 75$ without shipping, at least.
>>177 My e-reader (kindle) stopped working properly, the e-ink got really weak, and impossible to read.

>>178 Do you plan to buy another one? I have a kindle too but I'd like a little bigger screen and the ability to read the .mobi format. (I buy most of my books from the russian libgen store)
>>179 I don't plan on buying another... Maybe it is just weak battery, but, like I said in >>176, I've really adapted to the mode of printing my books.

western civilization isn't degenerating, but simply running out of other areas to exploit
propaganda works both ways, they are less free, so we should oppose them, make war with them, exploit them they have barbaric customs, so we should oppose them, make war with them, exploit them
they are somehow contagious, they are an obstacle to the progress of our civilization, their women are being oppressed so we denigrate for the course, make war if we must, exploit if we win there simply is no other program you will not find anything else on this earth
But it only works if I pronounce it correctly, right?

Try reading mantra sites they give hints on how to pronounce it. It mostly follows direct phonetic reading. Edited on 15/10/2020 14:48.
