Aristotle.

Because most people don't (care to) understand him but he increases your iq points 10-20 fold and will give you an answer to everything someone says, plus you can say "Askhually, as Aristotle says in his Poetics" or whatever work he says it in.

Either the Bible or the God Delusion

>>17600615
Lots of history books

>>17600615
Master the Trivium (Grammar, Logic and Rhetoric) and then read Plato and Aristotle, add some later philosophers like Kant and you will become the most autistic person in any room.

Actually this is true, its amazing how easy it is the btfo pseuds with just a cursory glance of a wikipedia page.

>>17600615
Non-fiction

Why do you want to sound like a know-it all faggot? I've spent a long time restraining this impulse in myself.

>>17600615
Read nothing because that behavior is retard shit.

advanced pilpul training from your local talmudic scholar.

>>17600638
realistically, unironically this
free, accessible, endlessly linking topic to topic, detailed yet still highly cursory/summarized so breadth is not sacrificed, reliable external citations, etc

ACTUALLY YOU SHOULD ONLY BE SAPIENT; READING IS NOT SOME MAGICAL PROCESS THAT IMBUES ONE WITH LACKED QUALITIES.

Damn that man must be rich as fuck.

The art of being right, by Schopenhauer.

Marxism. Proper Marxism. Not the "Cultural Marxism" that 90's AM radio conspiracy theorists invented. The Real Thing!!. Dogmatic as hell and can be used to correct anyone on almost any subect.
Its a bunch of dildos but hilarious for winding-up anglophones

>>17600615
all the most beainlet stuff such as Nietzsche, Capital, The conquest of bread etc

you don't convince anyone, you only alienate yourself

Easy, The Bell Curve. Even if you are not as smart as other people there's a 99% chance that they have been indoctrinated with false information. Expect to be ostracized though.

>when you want to better everyone around you but the ever-female kitchen tender gets offended by her inferiority and envies your penis

>>17602615
That's what I thought as well, couldn't deal with raising a genius. Then again Schopenhauer was a bit of an asshole.

>>17602518
This is such a pathetic female power fantasy, and what’s more embarrassing is you just know some simpering faggot male made the image too, thinking “boy oh boy now that I made this image Stacy will finally have sex with me! Take that incels!”

yeah. Wikipedia is honestly extremely based. If you have the time, you can binge read stuff like the entire history of China or Europe all from your armchair. I don't understand why some people struggle or like knowledge in history when they have Wikipedia accessible on their phones

the bible, since most people haven't read it and have a ton of misconceptions like there being 2 of every animal on the ark

>>17602144
Plato, Aristotle, some Buddhism stuff, and finally Kant.

Bonus round: Hegel. He will make you feel like you understand absolutely everything but won't be able to explain it to anyone and will simply come off as a schizo.

Cope

It's actually doing well, not doing good, unless you've been doing charitable works recently.
Actually begging the question means circular reasoning and is a logical fallacy. Instead of begging the question, try "raises" or "inspires" the question.

Do not reproduce

Whatever you end up with. Remember most people don't like being corrected. You're just going to annoy people with that mindset
