Society of the Spectacle

>>11188957
Honestly, the more I read the less I respect philosophy and politics. I feel like I’ve wasted my time, to be frank. At this point I keep reading because I already bought the books.

>>11188957
Start off with The Next Revolution by Bookchin

>>11188957
20-year-olds should be trying to understand Hegel

dont read until you're a boomer for the full experience desu

>>11189737
This. Everything written can be gained through lived experience. These philosophers never truly lived, just theorized and were miserable. Sure they had advanced ideas, but really were no better off than savages in the Congo.

>>11189846
I want to know more about you Bookchinposter. I keep seeing you around a lot lately.

>That 20 year old boomer that hasn't read the entire western canon

>>11188957
The Republic by Plato (w/ Crito to bring it down to a practical level).

>>11188957
Depends on what you've read already.

>>11188964
Enough with the meme, pseuds.

>>11191028
1950-1970 is literally THE WORST generation. Who do you think is responsible for all the bs of the modern era?? Also, the baby boomer generation is post WWII not post Vietnam, you twit.

Plato
Locke

Rene Guenon

>>11191070

>>11191113
Everything.

>>11191182
That's a LOT of stuff to cover anon-kun.

>>11191214
I've got plenty of time anon-senpai.

A 20 year old white man? You have to cut through the facade that was created for and passed down to us by the boomers by the merchant semites running western institutions. This will actually allow you to connect the dots in the political world and much of the philosophical one as well. Your knowledge will be full of holes if you don't understand the JQ and pic related is a basic introduction to this eternal quandary.

That's really easy:

"Technological Slavery" by Theodore Kaczynski

If you like that then you can work on to his second book: "Anti-Tech Revolution"

If you want high-brow stuff you can try Jacques Ellul's "The Technological Society" but it's a rhetorical book that isn't as scientific or logically constructed as kaczynski and also Ellul is pessimistic, whereas kaczynski is hopeful

Anatomy of the State by Murray Rothbard, only 60 pages long and a free pdf at mises.org. https://mises.org/system/tdf/Anatomy%20of%20the%20State_3.pdf?file=1&type=document

20 year old ism, of course. You fucking moron.

>>11191084

>>11188957
Economic works like The Wealth of Nations can give a practical understanding of the modern world.

Why not start with it? It's a great introduction to communalist theory and praxis imo, where would you suggest someone start?

>>11193111
He's not Greek.

Marcus Aurelius - Meditations

21 yo anon here.
Is taking Copleston 'History...' and reading originals parallely best option to start with philosophy? I don't really know which of many philosophical doctrinae I'm really interested in.
I want to be prepared for Cioran and Eliade, though.

do you have pdf-version?

>>11200568
No

just read economist so you'll be sort of normal and sound informed instead of being a deluded moron who analyzes SJWs through some random obscure 20th century philosopher like ppl on here and then gets mad when nobody wants to listen to him

>>11201889
This gave me a sensible chuckle.

Read the bible, quaran, Talmud, Pāli Canon and the upanishads.

Read marx and engels, bakunin, Kropotkin, Stirner, Hegel, Heidegger, Nietzsche, kant, Schopenhauer, Thomas Aquinas, John Locke, Voltaire, Adam Smith, read the greeks, all those greek guys.

read Guy Debord, Jean Baudrillard, Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, Theodor Adorno,

read nick land, max fisher, ted kaczynski, julius evola, Alexander dugin, Slavoj Žižek, René Guénon, Oswald Spengler

read Aleister Crowley, Robert Anton Wilson, hermes trismugestius

read wilhelm reich, Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, Jacques Lacan, edward bernays

read about cybernetics, managerial neoliberlism, Marxism, anarchism, the occult, the abarhamic religions, capitalism, psychology, history, technology, the eastern religions, paganism, philosophy, art, propaganda, marketing, conspiracy, aliens, science, math, war.
Study who the elite are. the plutocrats, the lobbyists, the politicians, high ranking military.
Gain a class conscious.
Read about materialism and spirituality.

Live for something other than consuming

read how things are made, how to make them, and also make things.

>>11203083
And last but not least, get redpilled on the JQ.

>>11203152
This isnt me btw. Im not some moron poltard that thinks jews are the problem. Im too well read to be that much of a fucking dipshit moron.
Guess what pol, the west is being flooded with non whites because the capitalists need a source of cheap labor and to drive down wages.
Anything that is "degenerate" on tv is because it is profitable

>>11203165
faggot

>>11188957
None, you should go outside and have sex instead

>>11203165
There is a group of people who have no interest in the preservation of European society because while living within European countries they have maintained a separate culture of their own. They are a people who feel no compunction in destroying the culture, heterogeneity or morals of European societies in exchange for $$$Capital$$$ because they have never cared for those things. They have no skin in the game. In fact, if anything, they are given to loathe those things. These people, then, have an advantage in a capitalist world because an ordinary European might feel the kinship of blood restrain them from pushing degeneracy on his people, but these people would not. You are Mr Book Mr Clever -- can you name that Pokemon, you fucking faggot?

>>11203186
white anglo saxon protestants?

Pol tars are so fucking small time when it comes to elite analysis. Guess what, the jews arent the only fucking ethnic group that has money

Guess what, capital needs more consumers and the western birthrate is declining

guess what they dont care about nations or peoples, they just want profit.

Guess what, they dont see you as a race or a human being, they see you as an economic unit

>>11203201
not him but you seriously need to read more. The Jews as a religious group, not all Jews but most Jews are participating whether they know it or not, are the chosen ones to lead humanity to the messianic age. They have built up their control over mankind for thousands of years and are now nearly victorious. They will declare victory when the unified world government and World Peace is declared. You're not well read if you don't know about the Jews, sorry lad.

>>11203201
Jewish people are overrepresented in areas which contribute to the downfall of society eg pornography. Do you deny Jews are overrepresented in the higher echelons of capitalist world order? Do you deny my explanation for why they might have an advantage which enables them to thrive? The instinct of the common man is smarter than you credit in your self satisfied smugness. Nature teaches animals to know their enemies, and the Jew is the enemy of anyone who loves their homeland and their people.

>>11203211
>>11203215

holy shit, i dont think the best writers in the world could put into words how stupid you fuckers are.
Porno is made because there is a market who demands it.

>>11203234
>Do you deny Jews are overrepresented in the higher echelons of capitalist world order?
>Do you deny my explanation for why they might have an advantage which enables them to thrive?

Nobody is denying capitalism as a fact exists, you retard. I'm telling you Jews are its greatest adherents because they feel no restraint in unleashing its destructive power.
