atleast someone is finally reading this on this fucking board!

I'm fucking pissed I never see it here.

Most people want to get the easy redpills, not willing to look for the source of the knowledge.

Don't forget we are in an anime board after all. People are used to read mangas or whatever with maybe 50 pages that are mostly drawings.

I wonder how many people actually read a book here. By the way, OP's book is a massive red pill. It's pretty much a MOAB of a red pill.

Jacques Ellul "Propaganda"

...

>When the footnotes are larger than the main text.
I love it.

Wasn't Jacques Elul a member of the French Resistance during the World War II? Wasn't the French Resistance composed mainly by liberals, communists and anarchists?

What are your opinions on the book?

- Every year I make a plan of how I will be better a year later.
- I read and get informed.
- I excercise and stay fit.
- I work hard (er... when I can get a job).
- I don't want to be someone else; I want to be the best I can be.

Sort yourselves out, anons.

Can I get a tl:dr

1. Giving up porn
2. Exercising (a lot)
3. More general self-discipline (e.g keeping tidy, getting up without snooze button)
4. Reading non-fiction
5. Giving meditation a go

>Sort yourselves out, anons.

Great advice user

Fuck off degenerate, people like you are the real scum.

Just bought a house out in the country about 6 months ago. I finished planting my first garden last weekend and built a chicken enclosure the weekend before that. My father in law and I built a bathroom and a new closet in the house completely by ourselves over the winter. Gonna build A new deck over the next few weekends. A year ago I had no idea how to do any construction and was living in the city doing nothing but playing vidya in my free time. Feels good.

I assume getting work is hard because your economy is fucked

That's real improvement. I'm happy for you.
Keep fighting the good fight, my friend. It is never too late to learn something useful for our lives and the lives of who are important to us. Good job.

to improve myself I am fucking black girls unprotected and doing heroin on weekends
i am redpilling myself

I don't need a fucking book to redpill me on niggers. Spend 5 minutes with niggers and that's all the evidence you need.

The Culture of Critique is the MOAB redpill.

>reading """""red pilled""""" books

BEING WHITE ISN'T ENOUGH

KNOW WHAT YOU ARE

TO READ ABOUT YOUR OWN CULTURE IS A REVOLUTIONARY ACT

Seriously though, if you don't know the history of your people, and your poetry, songs, and stories, then you're effectively just a self-aware amnesiac.

The book speaks for itself, the information in there isn't partisan, it's an in depth explanation of what propaganda is, how it manifests, the historucal use, etc.

I'll have to read up on Ellul's personal history
>Random SS, didn't read before posting hope it's good

That's not true, they also read all the words describing videos on blacked.com. Those are like 500 words a piece so that at least 5000 words a day.

Daily reminder that most of Sup Forums never self improves and they just blame minorities and DA JOOS for their problems

They just don'r write books like these anymore, the footnotes are awesome in there. He predicted the world we live in today, describing it with frightening accuracy.

Everytime I read this things I can't shake the words of Weber that believed that protestantism created segregated countries.

That's what happens when you are on the wheel of history.

Have some cumbia it's good for the soul.

Sounds cliché but letting go of guilt and having the ability to immediately emotionally overcome obstacles has paid dividends ten fold.

one of the first books i bought, long time ago though.

...

That sounds a bit illiberal...

...

It doesn't this really helps to have a better life overall. This is an internal and spiritual quest that everyone must have.

Books are good.

Pierce is good.

Reading this

...

...

They took the archive down for Pierce after like a decade or whatever, but his files are still around. Anyone who hasnt listened to absolutely everything WLP has to say, repeatedly, is doing it wrong.

Reading more actual books now than ever in my life. I'm also a welder now too. I'm gonna keep working this job until I get good and can move on to higher paying jobs

IM A MASSIVE HOMESEXUAL THAT LIKES FUTA DICK ALL DAY EVERYDAY AND /R/ THE_DONALD IS THE BEST REDDIT BOARD EVAH!!! SCHLOMO IS MY FRIEND AND I SLEEP WITH HIM ALL DAY!! HIM THE BEST GOY EVER AND ISRAEL SHALL RULE THE WORLD!! GLORY TO ALLAH

I'm reading this book series to redpill myself, but instead I'm getting blackpilled. xD

youtube.com/watch?v=x1tUFx_StSo

Rockwell speeches are good.

>Im reading cultural marxist propaganda
>its blackpilling me and I dont know why

Pick this up instead, the stuff youre reading is empty trash, drivel. Non-fiction or GTFO, anything fiction better be written by a philosopher or something, and not a shit one.

How did you learn your new skills?

Reading pic related.

Great book, everyone on Sup Forums should read it.

More cardio and eating healthier.
Better degeneracy-spotting skills

Interestingly enough this guy is not actually racist like most of pol would claim. In one interview w/ Sam Harris he said that "its immoral to treat people differently based on race" and that there's more variation within races than there are between

I self improve and blame da joos. It doesn't have to be one or the other Pancho

Id say the best thing to do is make yourself aware of all the best books and related subject matter by looking over the reading lists, and then go into a used book store or a thrift store with books, you will be amazed how many great books are just sitting there for like 1$, all on the recommended reading lists, or the top 100 composed by lit etc. I got catch 22 and the gulag archipelago both for 1$ in like 10 minutes, along with like 8 other books. The Gulag Archipelago is like 20-40$ on amazon marketplace alone, if you just go and flip it. Who would not buy that for 1$ unless they didnt know what they were doing...

Are you new? There's pretty regular book threads, and self improvement ones a couple of times a week.

Has anyone tried the MIT free online courses? I think a lot of them are just lecture notes and things won't be as easy without a lecturer walking you through the reading material, but Id like to better my knowledge on things like economics, history and political systems, and Im not falling for the uni Jew again.
If those courses are ok and I learn things then I plan on making myself more valuable in my work with courses like architecture and environmental design, get some solid knowledge behind my work instead of winging it like most people do.

ASOIAF isn't cultural marxist propaganda.

It accurately reflects the fact that women who get into positions of power will inevitably fuck everything up.

how do i become german?

Sup Forums doesn't say hes racist, they appreciate him because he does factual scientific work which shows the difference between the races. He has proven things everyone with half a brain can already tell without a scientific study, so its a tool in shutting down leftist arguments.

Cool stuff, funny coincidence because I was just listening to a Chilean composer a little bit ago m.youtube.com/watch?v=XYx9g6u_BJM

The television series sure is, and from what I know, the subject matter it was based on wasnt THAT far off the horseshit you might have seen on TV. I know they changed a lot of things and pozzed it up even further, but the author is a degenerate faggot Im pretty sure. TV series was pure cancer, the books aren't that far off despite being different in a number of ways.

Started learning how to cook several months ago, and began walking every day a few weeks ago. I can still only make basic stuff, but it definitely beats eating out all the time. I typically walk a mile each day, sometimes further, sometimes less.

Also just got my degree in mathematics, biology, and statistics minor. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. Would love to find a qt gf and make 2-3 white babies with, but I feel I should get a steady income and get fit first.(and overcome crippling social anxiety :/).

I'm doing the Golden One's reading list this summer. Going to start on the Greek classics if I've got the time once I'm done.

It's not something you want to become, trust me...

getting horribly abused so I don't get gay raped by my family.

also, learning hindi

stfu

hello OP.

Congrats on the degree user, and good luck with the social anxiety. I don't know anything about your case but I know sometimes it can be worsened by avoidance; people who are shy become full on anxious because they avoid people and spend too much time online instead.
I'm not really anxious do much as autistic tier uninterested in people, but I'm slowly making groups of regular online friends and talking over mic on discord and that. Getting over it slowly might be a good thing is what I'm saying, rather than throwing yourself straight in the deep end.

Do you have any suggestions on how to start learning to cook?

Here's one of my top book, this book helped my out of some tough time and taught me allot of things.

this is a good image but it needs a fucking source, or liberals and rightly so will dismiss it, even if its message is true

I assume EU citizenship and it's priviliges are quite good especially compared to how I live now, I'm leaving highschool any advice Germanon? Is marrying a german oman a good idea?

Related, but not a book.

Feels good man

I'm reading "Globalization and Its Discontents". George Soros reviewed it as "Penetrating".

>herbs

Get out pothead nigger.

congrats, you are working toward self-actualization! Maslow would approve.

Though some things are immediately rewarding and satisfying, nothing beats the feelings of self-worth and intrinsic confidence that come with doing meaninful activities.

Dont forget to read Mein Kampf if you havent, anyone who hasn't is pretty much just larping if they consider themselves National Socialist.

Here, everyone, read pic related. Its the 25 points of National Socialism. You want to know what that actually means, "National Socialism" - read this, and maybe Those Damned Nazis by Goebbels, and of course, Mein Kampf.

Nice. I am reading The Culture of Critique, The Antichrist (Nietzsche), and Aristotle's Politics between lifting and wrestling.

Today is my 3rd day 100% drugfree. No weed or coffee. Got off tobacco and alcohol a long time ago.

You can't help the white race if you don't help yourself.

A true redpill book?
Tragedy and Hope.

For cooking you dipshit

Good stuff. He educated a lot of the figures who went on to do great things, the mentor of our mentors.

>but Id like to better my knowledge on things like economics, history and political systems

For quality Econ you'll need a lot of math, though

Nietzsche is always a good choice. Supplement that with Jung and watch Jordan Peterson's videos on them.

"God is dead... and we have killed him." Nietzsche was mourning the death of christianity, saddened by the visions of what that future would be like. He wasn't gloating, as most people misinterpret only half the quote to mean. Perfect example of how things can be so dishonestly twisted.

The eternal leaf

No, temperance is fine, don't listen to the puritans here.

I know, I know.
"God dammit, leaf"

Most appreciated user. Yes I think you're right about going for gradual gains with respect to my social progress. I've always been shy, but then I sort of came out of my shell in highschool / first go at uni. Then after my mom passed I sort of regressed into a depressed, stagnant state for a few years. Now, at almost 30, I feel like I am very behind in life, so that I imagine adds to it.

As far as cooking goes my advice is to just dive in and know you (if you're at all like me in the kitchen) will make mistakes, but if you keep at it you will very soon improve. I put off learning for so long because I saw cooking as a time consuming task that I will inevitably mess up at, and the end result will be sub-bar. And it was exactly this my first couple attempts at it. I started with very simple items (grilled cheese sandwiches, egg sandwiches, quesadillas, and of course burgers ;) ). All of these can be prepared with just a stove and pan. These things are so basic some would probably hardly consider it cooking, but one must start somewhere. Are you beginning from scratch too?

Went from slim to swole with just 20 minutes exercise everyday. Now get mired by both males and females

Getting sober

I tested at 135 IQ two weeks ago, and tried again last night with a different test and scored 140 right before bed.

Unironically, what does this mean for me?

Reading, styding music theory, lifting.

How did you test yourself? Online?

Learn an instrument and learn classical music.
Most don't realize what learning music does to the brain, it teaches so many virtues and allows you to really connect in a unique way with something special. Learning takes lots of time, patience, and mistakes, just like anything worthwhile in real life. It teaches you the meaning of playing the long game.

There is a reason that the old European monarchies were often judged by the quality of the musicians in their employ, as with their painters and sculptors. Everyone that could learned music, even in the times when devotion to God were strongest, music was a form of worship and connection to God. Music is an important part of a healthy mind.

Much modern music is filled with propaganda and cultural engineering, be careful, and learn to understand what quality is and where it lives.

Do you want to better yourself?
Be organized. Be calm. Be brave.

Yes, twice online from two different testing sites. I realize a formal test is more accurate but I'm assuming I'd still score in that range.
