Way to capitalism OP. You're on your way to a very distinguished, worthwhile literary hobby / collection.

Read The Grapes of Wrath more than once.
Don't fap to Lolita.
Appreciate Marx, follow up with Das Kapital

>The Coming Insurrection - The Invisible Committee

don't bother with this. Read Marx's Capital instead

Jesus, half of these you should have read in high school.

You could have just used the library.

unless you're actually going to read it in German, call it Capital.

0/10

The obvious hypocrisy of buying ANARCHIST reading material from a large, franchise book store is a bit disturbing.

derp

>LOOK AT ME GUYS I BUY MY BOOKS AT THIS CUTE LITTLE MOM-AND-POP BOOK STORE NOT LIKE THOSE STUPID SUBURBANITE SHEEPLE WHO GO TO BARNES & NOBLES

Sure is hipster in here.

There aren't book stores in anarchist societies? What are you trying to say? Is Barnes and Noble a government entity now?

...I'm not the OP, but did you guys ever consider the fact that maybe the OP just wants to read about anarchism, and isn't an anarchist himself?

>>462211
you can't avoid capitalism, so until we get an anarchist society, we;ll just have to deal with buying things

You could buy those second hand for $20 for the lot.

>>462252
Hipster idiot.

this thread exemplifies almost everything that sucks about /lit/.

>>462260
Noted.

>>462211
Buying books from bookstores isn't necessarily a political decision.

Bit of a stretch there.

Not sure about hipster, but B&N is expensive yo.

I like my books like I like my women: battered and cheap.

>>462260
Indeed. Only thing missing is genre-lit-fanboyism.

>>462242

You mean until the majority of people on the planet:
a: are all at the phase where they become anarchist for a couple of years, at the same time
b: prolong said phase for long enough to realise that the majority of people agree
c: won't be schooled by capitalists

Humbly following a noble cause is one thing, personifying it is a folly.

>>462258
Don't hipsters not care about saving money because they live off their parents or something? Isn't that part of the hipster ethos?

>>462260
then why are you still here?

>>462279
I ain't.

hurr durr

>>462258
Hipster idiot for wanting to save my own money? I thought hipsters were frivolous with their money? I'm about as conservative and capitalist as you can get.

>>462260
>why doesn't everyone on 4chan share my literary tastes? wha wha wha

>>462277

>>462273
not what i meant at all ... it's that you can't live two different sets of social relations at once and besides there's nothing un-anarchist about having a regular job and buying stuff (though there is a lifestylist branch of anarchism, though they;re most idiots)

>>462295

That fat, furry fuck needs to stop banging all that jungle tail and get back to his type writer and finish that fuckin' series.

d00d is 8 books shy a dozen yo.

Lolita is shit.

>>462336

I 2nd that motion.

>>462286
its less about my tastes than about the topics discussed:
-hey, I just bought this, whatcha think?
-hipster!
-no u!
-Pretentious faggot!
repeat ad nauseam.

>>462157

Vonnegut is awesome man.

Digest that man's works. You'll be a better human being for it.

>Digest that man's works.

Since when has your method of buying a book become a statement of yourself. If I want a book, I go to the used bookstore. On the likely outcome they don't have what I want, I buy it at barnes and noble( and you can find an inexpensive copy of almost any book there). If I don't feel the need to have the book immediately I order it online for less money. Simple solution. And used bookstores aren't that great, you pay for what you get, a beat up copy of a book that is likely to fall apart during your read. If you like the vintage feel of books then stop being a faggot, and make them intstead of buying like that

>>462417
why yes

*puts on shades*

YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

You bought two books about Anarchism and neither are by Kropotkin? You fail. Hard.

my anarchist is better than your anarchist
