I'm thinking of ordering some books,people always recommend the 'classics' like Great Gatsby,To Kill a Mockingbird,ect.
If you got any good Jow Forums relevant books throw up a cover picture & a brief summary.
I'm getting Mein Kampf as my first,but having trouble finding a translation that wasn't (((tampered))).
Also was curious about Siege,since that meme died off a while ago.

I'd throw catch-22 on that list
Saved.
Was also on the recommended 'classics'.
the Ford translation isnt jewed
I also have Carl Jung on the list,anyone read his shit?
You want some books...let me offer some
If you want to understand foundational myths (particularly leading into Italian fascist thought)
Virgil - The Aenead
If you want to read original and pure "cultural materialism" (not Frankfurt school, OG)
Vico - The New Science
If you want to see the flaws in Cartesian hegemony (which has lead to neolibs)
Vico - on the study methods of our time
If you want a polemic against religious fascism and the troubles of blind faith, woke af
Bruno - Expulsion of the Triumphant Beast
These are all old and Italian. Vico was misunderstood, ripped off, and bastardized by more modern writers (read: Germans). This stuff is way ahead of its time.
more to come...
Brave New World and 1984 are excellent reads to begin to understand the system of controls in place in modern society.
1984's most salient point is, in my opinion, about the control of language to control thought. In essence, the idea presented was that restricting language through simplification would restrict thought and thus prevent inappropriate ideas from growing. I saw an image macro not long ago with a screencap of a scene from Casablanca, along with "desu bae idgaf" posted on it, and pair of NPCs commenting on how 'it's like another language'--basically, this.
BNW just fucking BTFOs the NWO, though. From the rampant oversexualization of society, to the use of manufactured medicines to cure psychological "ills", it hits it all on the head.
Just my two cents.
Of course no good reading list is complete without the opposition...
The only way to defeat your enemy is to know your enemy...
Karl Popper - Open Society and its enemies...
>neolib analytics, anti-authoritarian, critique of left and right, Soros mentor, critique of culture, marxist hated him
Sartre - Critique of Dialectical Reason
>Sartre's 2nd major book, critical of Marxism, yet supports Marxist frameworks, Structuralist
Althussar - Reading Capital + Ideology and Ideological Apparatus
>Structuralist, Stalin apologetics, huge influence on modern Marxist thought, State must control class conflict
Deleuze - Thousand Plateaus
>only PoMo writer worth a damn, critical of State control, wild poetic language but great thoughts in between the lines, not into 'relativism', questions hegemonic power in all forms
If you want to understand trash modern trans/feminist power politics...
Foucault - History of Sexuality (but this guy is full of bullshit)
....
He's good, Modern Man in Search of a Soul, and man and his Symbols are good intos.
No...no, no easy way out read it in German
>the 'classics' like Great Gatsby,To Kill a Mockingbird,ect.
That's nothing but K-12 slave literature.
True evils:
(((Edward Bernays))) - Propaganda + Crystalizing the Public Opinion
This guy wrote the playbook for modern psyops, the world is brainwashed under his methods, pure controlling evil
Kojeve - anything really
Quite literally a psychopath, father of EU, Stalin friend, KGB spy, huge influence on 20th century philosophy, this guy has set up the structuralist systems that fuck everyone over.
So I've actually read Mein Kampf. That book is derivative as all fuck, read literally any of the big antisemitic works of the 19th century and you've read Mein Kampf. As for the translation, you'll never get a lossless translation into English from German text. Our language is intricate. If you build a skyscraper using straws, it's bound to be shaky.
Reading it in English now myself, but I am working on learning German.
You're language isn't the hardest I've encountered, but you are correct on it really tricky intricacies.
That said, I am finding Mein Kampf quite insightful, but that may be because I identify with his observations in Vienna being similar to my time in NYC.
In any case much respect GermanBro.
MIGHT IS RIGHT
READ IT NOW
so much gay shit in this thread
1. the art of war
2. the prince
3. the 48 laws of power
4. mastery
5. the 33 strategies of war
6. might is right
7 industrial society and its future
On the top of my head, and from red to black pill:
1984
Mein Kampf
Fahrenheit 451
The Road
you haven't read it at all goign but what you say as jews aren't mentioned in it much at all, anti semitism takes up maybe 50 pages in the whole fucking book max, what about all the history, the eduaction plan? and everything else in it? Mein kampf is the book everyone pretends they've read you included.
