ITT: we discuss books were currently reading and books that we should read.
also i was thinking that maybe someone should make a monthly pol book club thread where we use strawpoll to decide which book we should read and in the thread next month we talk about how shitty it was. what are your thoughts?

Decent start. Needs Huxley and Evola.
Recent reads.
whose evola?
Sun and Steel by Yukio Mishima
MASTERPIECE
Where did you find a copy of this? I can't find one for less than 30 smackers, muh shekels
Also, I'm reading Discourses by Epictetus
whats a good place to start with the stoics?
I started with meditations by Marcus aurelius, but the Enchiridion is probably a better option for a first taster. It actually took me a while to get into stoicism properly but fucking hell it was worth it.
can you link me to it? im having trouble finding it. also what other philosophy books should i get? i got beyond good and evil but i have a feeling its gonna be to dense for me
This is a good one.
Starship troopers, second book of my Sup Forumsbookclub journey
Halfway through it. It's a pretty great read so far.
>also i was thinking that maybe someone should make a monthly pol book club thread where we use strawpoll to decide which book we should read and in the thread next month we talk about how shitty it was. what are your thoughts?
Too many people will go in and out of the book club to accomplish anything that can't be done in a private chatroom. Besides, we all have our own interests, schedules and book lists.

+1 upvote for Dostoyevsky
I think standard anti-communist reading should be The Gulag Archipelago by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, and Stalin: Paradoxes of Power 1878-1928 by Stephen Kotkin
I have The Gulag Archipelago. Dostoevsky has been my main man since I was probably 15. Only Kierkegaard has matched my interest of him as an adult.
...
I like the general idea but there's a lot a fuckery here. For example, how is Marcus Aurelius on the same tier ("difficulty"-wise) as fucking Hegel or Heidegger?
Also, (((Adorno))).
Are 1984 and Animal Farm worth reading?
Can't tell if they are memes or not.
No joke, Mein Kampf.
Both are 100% worth reading, no memeing.
1984 is, but Animal Farm is pretty childish really. I think both Orwell and Vonnegut are pretty simple and silly.
I'll read them both. At the very least I'll be able to understand the constant references.
Orwell wrote his books as satires. Don't take the plot of1984 seriously - but the ideas it has are all based on real life occurrences. Most people make the mistake of thinking that his writing is silly and over-the-top, but this is because hes simplified his books so that even a child could understand.
I'd recommend Notes from Underground over 1984 any day.

>2017
>reads books
Were you bullied, are you retarded, or both?
>b-buh reading makes you s-smart
Yeah, is life a competition about who gets to rot away in their degenerating body by reading?
>b-buh It's educating and fascinating
No you don't, unless you're underage, and can't read with reason
>b-buh there's such a variety of things to read
Who's forcing you to read pieces of useless papers all day, fucking yokel?
...
Wish I'd gotten Dam's book.

You read a lot of garbage but at least you have Bomb
>>b-buh reading makes you s-smart
>Yeah, is life a competition about who gets to rot away in their degenerating body by reading?
lol
>not listening to audiobooks while you walk, bike, drive, do chores, etc
>not reading before bed for hella cool dreams
>not reading a hundred++ books a year
stay uneducated and uncultured, dumbtard
You can read animal farm in a day so you might as well, but I don't think you're missing out if you don't read it.
>You read a lot of garbage but at least you have Bomb
most of my physical book collection were gifts(the star wars books D: ) most of the actual books i've read are audio and ebooks.
Read Notes from the Underground and 1984 not Animal Farm and 1984. There.

reading is for faggots
Don't see it mentioned too much, but: God and Man at Yale, by Buckley Jr. He was pointing out the Marxist influence at major colleges in the 50's.
I'm currently working through this list, reading Discourses on Livy now. Learned a fuck load about ancient Greece, Rome and Christianity and general theory of power
good reads
>mei
kys
I've been working through this list and sometimes it doesn't go by "difficulty" it goes by accessibility almost based on the previous works, for example I keep finding earlier books referenced in the later ones.
I think this is why Lord of the Rings is considered "difficult" on this list too, it isn't hard to read per se but you will view it in a whole different light once you have the political and philosophical framework from the books prior to it
Mein Kampf translation recommendations?
>most of the actual books i've read are audio
Dropped
This is the only list worth looking at unless you're a cucked bootlicking fascist or an economically retarded libcommie
your waifu actually a shit
Seems like this is mostly about economics though.
The Forever War is pretty redpilled. I recommend it.
>The Forever War is pretty redpilled. I recommend it.
read Forever Peace next to be disappointed.
I wouldn't recomend John Calvin murdered his own close followers and he denied free will.
Sapiens. By the Jew "Yuval Harari".
Good read about human physiological, psychological and cultural evolution.
Delves a good deal into why White Europeans are the Master Race and why Niggers are shit tier.
Surprisingly he doesn't bring up Jews as being based or anything like that, he just presents Evolution and the steps it took and what not
Bonus: he dedicates the book to his father 'Schlomo'
>p-please read Marx, goy
>also 1984 isn't that important please pay no mind
Storm of Steel and Hess: The Missing Years 1941-1945
It isn't Political, but House of Leaves by Danielewski is amazing
Have you read The Naked Ape?
If so how does it compare?
I found it pretty based particularly because it starts out by saying primitive cultures are evolutionary dead ends
>still having physical libraries
Guys, it's 2017.
I've just finished Under Satan's Sun by Bernanos.
It's a really moving book that shit on both realism and optimism (cuckhold christianism) and show the part that Satan plays in the world even and especially in the life of a Saint.
As long as I can physically touch a book, I will
This.
Killing physical books is a terrible mistake.
I only download ebooks because it is free, some books are way too fucking pricey (Lee Kuan Tew memories are worth more than a hundred dollars for instance)
i also don't have to wait for the books to be delivered, or lost by the mailmen twats
You're just wasting space and matter. And for what? Some made up nostalgic sensation of touching paper and smelling wood?
Digital books can be preserved just as well, if not even better than physical books, all you need is proper storage.
I downloaded a cookbook series, that costs over 1k$ normally. I'd be bankrupt if I bought all the books I've read.
Read it 2 days ago. Good book. After reading it everyone could have known that he wants to kil himself.
...
So you're not only a pleb that doesn't read physical books, but you're a thief as well.

Copying isn't thieving, the unrestricted flow of digitized data is inevitable. :)
Book of the New Sun
all of these "omg le epic masterpiece", dont read those. im sure they are worthwhile, but if your goal is understanding global politics and economics, stick to mostly contemporary shit
what i recommend strongest is Peter Schiff's books
>subtly red-pilling a guy at work
>he asked me "how did you get so smart?" replied "reading books n' stuff"
>he literally purchased a kindle and said I got him into reading
>bought it in so I can help set it up and recommend some books
>downloaded decline of the west and a few other pretty damn controversial books, he's not the reading type so I thought its just a phase
>hasn't been to work in 2 months since
err........... i know it sounds like a joke but it's true. I'm starting to get worried, i hope I didn't overdose him.
>Nazism
>Spengler
You got it wrong buddy
Calibre is based
>i hope I didn't overdose him
kek I think you did. You're supposed to get slowly redpilled by funny pictures of nazi frogs first. Not dive into the deep end of knowing that jews are destroying the west.
If you don't follow this book then you're not redpilled.
I just read The Book of Mormon.
I can't believe that people think it's genuine.
what's it about? I tried reading but was confused so I left it for later
>hasn't been to work in 2 months since
He'll be back with a balaclava and knife very soon.

Excellent taste lad.
Most important one.
Well our most recent conversation was about Jews, I did my utmost to remain neutral - I simply explained the reasons why they have a bad rep, e.g. origins of Jewish lending in medieval society, and why they were considered vermin by practically the entire world for being present in every country with no "homeland". Media control and the vast 'coincidences'. So much to discuss with an uneducated mind.
Cracking an indoctrinated mind isn't worth me effort.
...
Personally I prefer "The Way of the Samurai"
House of Leaves
That's natural, you'll feel a little lost until the second volume. It comes together wonderfully, everything that occurs is recalled later on and later details reveal a lot of foreshadowing. You might get the impression that it's only sci-fi but you need to know quite a bit of physics and mythology to properly understand many parts

Is that "How to Bomb the Government?"

God is portrayed as a black woman in it. Also Paradise lost makes God look like a total asshole most Christians accused him of being a satanist. for it. I wouldn't recommend either of those
I'm reading Ready Player One. It's fucking awful. I saw the trailer for the Spielberg movie coming out in 2018 and wanted to understand the concept. I'll still see the movie and I enjoy 80's trivia, but the book feels like it was written by a 14 year old. Oh well. At least it can be read in 3 or 4 evenings.
why on earth would you do such a thing
>mega.nz
Thanks. Some great resources here.

it's just cheesy 80s references
Junger is the answer to Stirner. His anarch is the most noble form of man I've seen presented
I like to read books before I go see movies based upon those books to see how my vision and the directors vision differ. The books are always better.
Julius Evola's an Italian philosopher of the 30s.
Very redpilled stuff. Tradition. Fascism. Nationalism.
pretty sure he thought Hitler didn't go far enough

> The Camp of the Saints (Le Camp des Saints) is a 1973 French novel by author and explorer Jean Raspail. The novel depicts a setting wherein Third World mass immigration to France and the West leads to the destruction of Western civilization. Almost forty years after its initial publication, the novel returned to the bestseller list in 2011.[1] It is considered by many readers and reviewers to be a prophetic book, correctly predicting a massive immigration wave from the Third World into 21st Century Europe.
A french visionnary...
heard of "Submission" by Michel Houellebecq
I read Foucault's Pendulum when it came out in '88. I was a junior in high school, and a bit of a conspiracy theory nut; didn't believe in them, just loved reading about them.
Fucked my shit up. I have believed a word about anything from anyone since.
Below should probably be on your list:
