this is a meme, are you memeing or actually that much of a noob

Never cared about books or reading much, I have been interested but did not have the time. So yes I
would be considered a noob.

Anyway I made a shit thread, all I have are stats and memes saved on this machine.

Apologies for wasting everyone's time.

it's not a shit thread at all, senpai. it is a meme but, yes, start with the greeks. you can find lectures on jewtube over every book. I'm working my way through Yalecourses intro to political philosophy right now. You kind of have to start with the greeks, namely plato, namely the Republic to understand the big picture

Plato: read the Republic, the Laws, the Timaeus, the Critias, the Symposium, and Phaedrus. Then go read the seventh letter attributed (falsely) to Plato. Then read up on the exoteric vs esoteric interpretations of Plato and realize that Plato does not give you the answers but a method for approaching answers through images and stories. Also, while reading the Republic, pay attention to the fact that the Guardians (and Auxiliaries) are a military-political class that Socrates only adds because he's forced to avoid the "City of Pigs," the city in which luxury is not allowed, and ask yourself why Callipolis has an army.

If you read Aurelius, also read Seneca the Younger. Don't skip Cicero's De Officiis, De Republica (his take on Plato's Republic with some of the Phaedrus thrown in), and De Legibus (his version of Plato's Laws).

If you want to move on to the modern age, read Hugo Grotius, Sepulveda's Democritus Alter, Machiavelli's The Prince but also Discourses on Livy. Don't leave out Nietzsche.

From the twentieth century, read Eric Hoffer's The True Believer and compare it to Socrates' definition of justice in the Republic.

Nofap should be the foundation of any serious self-improvement endeavour.

Mestizo, I have no idea how much native or how much European I have and to be honest I don't really want to know, I just want to be a better person and a productive member of American society

And even thats overrated

>I have no idea how much native or how much European I have and to be honest I don't really want to know, I just want to be a better person and a productive member of American society
That's all you need. You're already ahead of 90% of the people out there.

Nice, I try to find good Veteran podcasts, there's a ton of them out there but very few have any substance to them, I'll check it out

Does anyone here even own and read any of the books they recommend? If so post pics. I'll start.

I have many of the books that I've mentioned, but most are either at the office or are pirated via Library Genesis. If you don't know about Library Genesis, you should: libgen.io
You can download countless academic books there for free, thanks to Russians who believe that western copyright law has made academia inaccessible to most of humanity.
