>these are all "leftist" anti-state critiques so guessing from the image, maybe not exactly what you are looking for
It’s retarded to throw out valid or useful critiques simply because they are written by left-wing thinkers. Good ideas are good ideas, it shouldn’t matter where they come from. If you insist that every writer you read has to be in perfect alignment with your political framework, you’ll end up reading very little at all.

>>20112750
People aligned with your framework are generally taking about the topics you're interested in while the opposing side is doing the opposite.

If you only ever read people who agree with you, you will never challenge your viewpoint and build a strong foundation for your beliefs. Its not rigorous and quite anti-intellectual to do so. Absolutely read about what you’re interested in, but don’t be afraid to grapple with ideas or thinkers you might thoroughly disagree with. If you can overcome the challenges they pose, then the justification for your beliefs will be all the more stronger for it. And if not, then at least you will have the honesty to admit when you are wrong and be willing to improve your thinking as necessary.

Sucks to be you then since anti-capitalists have been criticising this shit for about a century and

>>20112785
I'm still 80% sure this is bait but I'll answer in case it's not. Why would you think everyone over the age of 18 would not already know this? Also have you never looked at any of the /pol/ book charts. It's half filled with leftist books. Also the field of propaganda and really almost every topic you can think of is close to 100% leftist or liberal authors because right wingers don't get published.

>>20112815
Oops this was for

>>20112786

>>20112810
If I'm not mistaken the early books like Bernays and Lippman were not leftists and then you have Goebbels and that whole crowd and you know about those guys

>>20112786
The bait is thinking that "grappling with perspectives" is actually worth anything. At best it's an idle curiosity, at worst it distracts and dissipates one's life into "questions" and "problems", rather than affirmations and living.

>>20112704
Don’t limit yourself so narrowly. I swear half you retards want confirmation bias when you ask for book recs here

>>20112843
Ok this one is bait

>>20112815
>Why would you think everyone over the age of 18 would not already know this?
Because 4chan is an 18+ website and there are still people here who refuse to read books written by people that don’t align with their beliefs, as this thread demonstrates. Stating the obvious? Sure, it might seem like that to someone like you or me who isn’t so ideological that they can’t appreciate a good idea regardless of its source. But clearly some people don’t get this.

>right wingers don't get published
This is a myth. Right-wing viewpoints might be harder to publish in this day and age, but to state in such an overgeneralised way that “right wingers don’t get published” is retarded when there are so many counter examples to your point.

>>20112785
>>20112785
>Interesting hypothesis but corporations and the so-called elite are too incompetent to influence the masses in any meaningful way.

>>20112833
>affirmations
So what you’re saying is that you read to surround yourself with yes men? That is weakness, plain and simple. You are afraid to challenge your beliefs because you fear that the foundations on which they rest are not as strong as you would like to admit. It is not an “idle curiosity”, it is the means by which we learn to build better arguments and stronger justifications for our beliefs. Without it there is no closer approximations, finer gradients of truth, only biases and dogmatism.

Post 3 books on propaganda written by right wingers

>>20112869
I never said to read one way or another, all I said was to read regardless of the author’s political leanings. Why you feel the need to keep compartmentalising writers into left or right-wing I have no idea, but it’s immature and silly. Maybe there are good books on propaganda written by right-wing people, but their political framework has absolutely no bearing on the quality of their work.

>>20112879
He didn’t specify books about propaganda by right-wingers not getting published, he made a broad (and patently untrue) statement about all right wingers not being published. I’m going to stop replying now since I made what I thought was a fairly uncontentious point, only to be met with a group of highly combative and ideological replies. Just read books and stop paying attention to politics ya dumb monkeys

My beliefs cannot be challenged because they are my beliefs. They are the form which I have created and which no one can refute or destroy, except by killing me or forcing me physically to renounce them through torture or violence. There is no such thing as "true belief", "objectivity", "universality", "The Truth", and other such superstitions. There is only the truth for me, and there are others with their truths.

>>20112968
Not bait. It's just hard for some to accept. The transvaluation of truth has not yet hit home for most people.

>>20112948
>There is no such thing as "true belief", "objectivity", "universality", "The Truth", and other such superstitions
Correct, that is why I specified “closer approximations” of truth, not Truth with a capital T. Objectivity doesn’t exist outside of the satisfaction of abstract linguistic constraints, but that doesn’t mean you can’t cut your teeth in order to sharpen the bite of your arguments.

If something is true because it’s true for you, that kind of thinking won’t improve your PURSUIT of truth one iota, since truth is irrevocably bound up with narcissism rather than truth for its own sake.

Approximation implies that there is an objective standard to judge the approximation by (otherwise there would be no "closer" nor "farther" approximation), do not pretend to be stupid.
>but that doesn’t mean you can’t cut your teeth in order to sharpen the bite of your arguments.
It most certainly does. Arguments are useless unless you're someone desperate for others to agree with your opinions, or for opinions to "harmonize" between peoples.
>If something is true because it’s true for you, that kind of thinking won’t improve your PURSUIT of truth one iota
Au contraire, it will complete my journey while yours will remain ever unfulfilled.

>>20113011
>Approximation implies that there is an objective standard to judge the approximation by (otherwise there would be no "closer" nor "farther" approximation), do not pretend to be stupid
Why should that be the case? I am interested in degrees of realisation, things that are always in-becoming and never reaching a final state of being. 0.999999 does not equal 1 because 1 does not exist. If this is stupidity, then I will gladly embrace it.

>Arguments are useless unless you're someone desperate for others to agree with your opinions, or for opinions to "harmonize" between peoples.
You are literally arguing with me right now (poorly, I might add). By your own word, that means either you’re seeking validation for your opinions, or you’re looking to synthesise my ideas with your own. So which is it?

>it will complete my journey
It’s not YOUR journey if all you’re doing is parroting Nietzsche (probably the most un-Nietzschean thing you can do). You’re completing his journey, not your own.

>>20112771
Bro, it's the manichean, good vs evil mindset. It's for kids.

I live in rural Kentucky. We never elect Democrats. No libs. Is it utopia? Fuck no. Not even the best place I've lived (that was Utah, which is a political odd ball). It has good parts, cheap land, good gun laws, lowish taxes.

We also have corruption because one party rule means no one gets competition. Kentucky elected a Democrat governor because our Republican party takes winning so for granted that they run absolute shit bags. No one likes Mitch here. It's sort of like how Massachusetts has Republican governors all the time.

Crime is high, drugs still a problem. Young people leave by in large. Economy is highly dependant on gibs because the population is old so pensions are a huge share of income (state or Social Security). Cancer is everywhere. Literally counties where 1:4 adults have had cancer or have it. I'm all for not having costly regulations, but you can't spray Roundup by the gallon on to fields, all sorts of pesticide, dump trash all over the woods, have unsealed pits for trash, and then pump water right out of drainages from these areas and act shocked that everyone gets cancer. It's fucking retarded. We're told any attempt to have us not get cancer will crash our economy, but really it's so richfags can't make .05% more profit.

Yet /pol/ thinks I live in a paradise of bearded men with ARs standing in wheat fields with their trad wives saying "yes." It ain't that simple. Problems have complexity.

>>20113011

And just to add to my point about Nietzsche- for someone who insists on the transvaluation of values, you sure do seem stubborn to re-evaluate your own.

>Why should that be the case?
Approximation has no meaning unless it is an approximation of something. That something being "The Truth." If that something, The Truth, does not exist, then it is an approximation of Nothing, and therefore immaterial. Disagree with me? That's fine. It is immaterial. Everything I've just said is hypothetical and provides no hint of The Truth.
>You are literally arguing with me right now
I'm not trying to change your mind. I'm explaining my own, and that is all, whether or not you are convinced is not of any relevance to me. If you choose to believe in The Truth it is of no concern to me, I will only see it as your truth, and not mine.
>parroting Nietzsche
I am not a Nietzschean, my thoughts happen to coincide with some of his.
>you sure do seem stubborn to re-evaluate your own.
They've already been reevaluated by my own standard, and not any so-called "objective" standards which are not my own.

>>20113035
Yeah dude, come down to Appalachia and see what an extreme utopia it is.

It's better than the Rust Belt city I grew up in, better than NYC, which I lived in for just a year (although, there is some cool shit there), very similar to where I lived in WV. I would say overall, Upstate New York where I lived, in the Northern Adirondacks (south of Plattsburgh a bit) was in some ways nicer (less crime, beautiful nature) and in some ways worse (more expensive, cold as fuck most of the year). Utah out west of Grand Junction and eastern Washington around Spokane are the best places I've lived, only here for family. Rural Western Massachusetts is surprisingly nice, I've only worked there for long periods, but the whole state isn't Boston like what you'd think, feels more like what you'd think Maine would be.

Yes but the problem with leftists is that they don't apply what they say to reality. For instance, the acceptance of homosexuality was obviously manufactured with the methods they outline, yet they will never even dare to suggest it.

>>20113216
the problem with people who use terms like leftists on 4chan is that they never escape their tiny meme bubble yet pontificate as if they've seen the world

>>20113058
>Approximation has no meaning unless it is an approximation of something. That something being "The Truth." If that something, The Truth, does not exist, then it is an approximation of Nothing, and therefore immaterial
It is an approximation of something illusory, yes; but it does not deny the existence of the way towards truth (objective or otherwise). If I am chasing mirages in the desert, I am still moving, and even if every oasis I encounter is not real, I still have a greater chance of finding water than I would were I merely standing still. There is no functional difference between the non-existence of objective truth, and not knowing if objective truth exists- so struggle on we must.

>I'm not trying to change your mind. I'm explaining my own, and that is all
I didn’t ask you to explain yourself, you imposed your perspective on me as a challenge to my own. You replied to my post in order to dispute my point, that is the textbook definition of an argument. Thus the question remains: by your own admittance you are either trying to validate your perspective, or seeking to, as you put it, harmonise your thoughts with mine. So which is it? Do not try to wriggle out of this with semantic nitpicking, there is no escaping the fact that you are making an argument, and so you should state explicitly what your intentions are in accordance with the definitions you yourself have already set out.

>They've already been reevaluated by my own standard
Then your standards are weak, and you have already accepted stagnation, dehydration and inevitably, death. I will likely die too, but at least I will die a good many steps ahead of you on the journey towards truth.

>>20112785
It's literally a thousand times harder to cultivate and educate someone so as to instill critical thinking in him, than to manipulate him with whatever message you please.
The latter is actually very easy. It was easy during the medieval times, easy during the Renaissance, and even more so today that he's inundated with messages and information 24/7.

Alot of other Right wingers, most prominently Moldbug, have explained that this is counter productive and doesn't work. Also this: >>20113369

>>20113403
To add: using the left's ideas on propaganda would be giving them to much credit instead of just calling those ideas what they ironically are: propaganda meant to uphold a certain narrative that binds those who'd dare defy progress

>>20113369

You should look into Cambridge Analytica, allegedly a lot of the data profiling involved in the elections drew on thinkers like Foucault and Judith Butler. You say it isn’t effective, but those strategies actually brought about things like Brexit and Trump’s election to office. See:

Of course not, because you haven't read him. If I remember correctly he talks about it in his Open Letter.

>>20113430
Yeah, it sucks and ended up accomplishing nothing of value. I don't care much for brexit considering europe is just Americas backup save

Any books about how DEEP STATE GLOBALISTS use MASS FORMATION PSYCHOSIS to BRAINWASH the masses with CULTURAL MARXIST, HYDROGENATED THINKING with the help of the MAINSTREAM MEDIA and ELITE INSTITUTIONS to squash FREE THINKERS and THOSE WHO GO AGAINST THE GRAIN, constituting an ATTACK on MASCULINITY and TRADITIONAL FAMILY VALUES, and ultimately resulting in THE DOWNFALL OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION?

>>20113431

I’ve read some of his writings on patchwork/neocameralism, which is certainly an interesting alternative to the libdem deadlock. But he’s still a hack-y sack. Instead of just telling me to read him you should be able to paraphrase his ideas- clearly you yourself don’t understand him well enough to do so. Just pointing at him and thinking that is a valid point in of itself is cringe.

>>20113447
Doesn’t matter if you don’t see the benefit, that is a clear example of the right weaponising supposedly leftist thinkers and ideas against the left. And it worked. even if brexit and trump were failures in themselves, you can’t deny that their campaigns were successful.

I read a lot of Chomsky in my edgier younger years. I always found Chomsky to be a little outside the left/right paradigm, he criticized politicians and bureaucrats generally not just right wing ones. Although his personal views are certainly to the left of centre, you don't need to agree with him on those in order to get something out of his political writing.

That said the one book I'd recommend to OP is Manufacturing Consent.

You're dumb and/or trolling. French "leftists" are not the same as American neoliberals/"snowflakes." Most of them are far better readers of Plato than someone like Paul "Midwit" Woodruff. You know, Plato? The man who wrote the most influential critique of democracy ever? Nick Land, one of the most exciting actual right-wingers in the 21st-c., was raised on a steady diet of such French thinkers.

I'm not denying that there's heinous shit written by left-wingers. But many of the continentals forward arguments that can be detached from their political worldview. Usually, it comes in two parts: the diagnosis and the proposed solution. The diagnosis is the same, no matter if it's written by Ellul or Robert Filmer. Ignore the proposed solution if you wish. Or just read Kierkegaard if you can't handle an opposing opinion.

There haven't been many right-leaning thinkers worth a damn who've written on this topic, because "conservativism" is a moving target that's constantly shifting to the left. Today's conservative is yesterday's hippy: they have no absolute principles. Meanwhile, the French won't shut the fuck up about corporations and elites weaponizing culture as propaganda, and some of them happen to be (ironically enough) more traditionalist than most conservatives, since they have a deep grounding in Classics.

All great conservative writers existed before the invention of modern corporations. You can try reading Moldbug, though he's more of a rhetorician than a philosopher. You can try reading Nick Land, but you'd first need a good understanding of Kant (a task which itself has a load of prerequisites) and the aforementioned Frenchies. You can try reading Kierkegaard, though you'll have to fill in the blanks yourself since he wrote just before the rise of modern corporations. Or you can stop being a little bitch who's afraid that their political views will wither up under the tiniest microscope and just read the goddamn French.

Tl;dr
Was there even a single book recommendation after the one in like the first two posts? Or did it descend entirely into retarded cringy zoomers arguing as if they know anything going on outside of their fartstinking bedroom?

Yes but they're all pedophiles who admit to wanting to destroy the west. They all have far left views on politics and philosophy. There is no reason to read them over any other people

>>20116881
To be fair, the west has been corrupted for 2000 years.

Unironically kys and your shitty thinly veiled bait thread, directionbrain.

>>20116854

No book recommendations. Just everyone sperging out because OP didn't want to read books by leftoids

>>20118528
More like no further book recommendations because OP is too much of a retarded directionbrain to read exactly what he asked for.

>>20113171
He's a dialetician.

lol

>>20118544
I didn't ask for books about how we interfered in the election in East Timor or some leftist garbage. You know exactly what I was looking for in the OP you just can't help but be ideological

>>20118874
Retarded directionbrain making assumptions and refusing to think for themselves, what else is new?

>>20118874
You were asking for books about how corporations and the elite use media and culture to propagandize the masses and that's what you got.
>you just can't help but be ideological
kek the irony
