Looms gay desu

You seem like a real smart guy!

Smart enough to fuck yer mum

giv link to epub mate and i'll read it

Doesn't take much to get into a fat middle aged coal burner.

What's it about you gave no context.

If I could I would, but I've never read an E-book I got a copy from an oxfam for like £4. The books over a hundred years old, not sure its even available as an ebook.

what was your most redpilled moment from the book?

The premise of the book is set in early 20th century southern Britain, it follows the daily lives of a decoration firm, its employees and employers and the way it operates as they renovate a home.

The premise isn't that important though, to me it read like an instructional booklet on how to be a successful fat cat business owner, why socialism is the best ideology and why due to human nature, humans simply don't deserve it.

>why socialism is the best ideology


it can't be the best ideology since it's not grounded in reality like you said because of the human nature

Depends on how you look at the red pill. The money trick I'm posting cartoon pages of was up there.

Humanity is insane, not the ideology, seriously read the book.

wow mate spoken like a real liberal

>i-i-ITS THE PEOPLES FAULT
>J-JUST CHANGE SO MY RETARDED SYSTEm WORKS

Also Rust is the edgiest character ever.

We can do socialism when automation takes most of the jobs. Until then it's just unfair.

I'm not saying that at all, I'm saying that the people deserve to be exploited and worked like slaves as they actively desire and defend it because they are in many ways insane.

Also - I'm not a liberal.

Why would it be unfair?

Because inevitably some hard working, industrious people have to pay for some lazy, entitled people.

Look at our own country. We have swaths of people who refuse to work and spend their lives scamming the benefits system. The people who do work pay for them to sit around and breed.

Read the book it covers this and why it wouldn't matter either way but on top of that the people you speak of are more sane than a lot of the labor force considering the problems with the capitalist system.

...

I'll read the book anyway, sounds interesting. Is it long?

Well its not war and peace...

Over 600 pages.

...

...

they are not insane, they are just looking for someone to guide them like religion did it for them

Yeah it proves religion too as a scam and this was back in the early twentieth century when people actually went to church.

The priests are hypocrites, it uses passages from the bible to establish this, they are one of the greatest con artists.

Still, the laborers are insane as they work to remain enslaved in conditions of abject poverty and defend the masters and when the masters have no work left for them they are left to starve.

...

...

...

you use all these harsh words to label certain people mate, stop being so judgmental.

have you thought about the fact hat not all humans are the same? and some are born to lead and others to follow... you really sound like you are shocked to realize that we are in fact not all equal and because of this shock you throw around words like (scam,hypocrisy,conartists,insane,enslaved)

....

if an antelope could speak he wouldn't call the tiger OPPRESSOR, ENSLAVER e.c.t

he would simple call him Tiger

...

I'm more than aware that not all humans are equal, the reason I've become so jaded was because I lived my early life trying to persuade people; knowing that capitalism rewards the worst of us, to work for themselves.

In essence I showed people more respect than they even have for themselves, and in return they would have me hung for it to quote the book "like a Jesus on the cross".

The people at the bottom are sycophants that enable the idlers at the top, who do no work at all. If you should happen to be born outside the circle of the upper elite either a life of servitude awaits or you can reject it all and be left to starve.

The planet provides ample space for us to have plenty this was true before the industrial revolution and is even truer now that we have progressed past it and yet the poor have even less today than they would have back then.

>capitalism rewards the worst of us,
wrong.
capitalism rewards those that create the most value to others

your view that people "at the top, who do no work at all" are there because they are evil is straight out of marxist lenninist fight the bourgeoisie, workers UNITE bullshit . and I can promise you one thing, with an attitude like this you will stay forever poor and never make it

>If you should happen to be born outside the circle of the upper elite either a life of servitude awaits or you can reject it all and be left to starve.
This is false, and also a defeatist attitude.

Frederick Trump, Donald Trump's Grandfather, came to the US without as much as a dime to his name. Originally he worked in a barber shop, saved up several hundreds of dollars from his work, and then moved to Seattle to invest in a Dairy Restaurant. From there, he saved up more money to buy a separate property during a gold rush and claimed the rights to minerals in that area, yet had no plans to mine himself. In that area, the first Trump hotel was built and he made his profit on several different ventures.

He did not get lucky. He was not blessed. He worked his ass off to provide for his family and invested in ventures that would eventually lead up to the Trump Empire. Although anecdotal, it is proof that not everyone had to be born to some sort of elite to become part of that elite. All you need is brains and good work ethic

Read the book and see if you can still believe that bullshit.

Christ just read the comic adaptations from the book.

Capitalism requires the most profit and the least expenses, this in turn means that those that benefit the most from capitalist society have to squeeze the most value out of their laborers and find ways to do the worst job possible.

Take the Mac Donald corporation as an example.

It is to my knowledge the most "rewarded" corp on the planet and it serves the lowest quality of food such as the pink slime nuggets, the burgers are even worse etc. It pays its staff the bare minimum and its prices are quite high.

As for "tradesmen" the companies that stay in business are the ones that can offer customers the lowest prices, the way they do this is through doing piss poor jobs cutting costs on materials and using laborers like slaves.

Your attitude is straight out of Atlas Shrugged which is a self help book for bastards. You are up your own arse because its fluffing your ego.

Credit where credit is due but America was known truly the land of opportunity back then for a reason, the same can't be said for Britain Europe and perhaps even America with the way its going, especially with that trans-pacific trade partnership deal that will pass.

"truthfully as the land of opportunity"

I'm not gonna start refuting all the false statements you have just made.

just remember my words on your death bed, YOU HAVE BEEN POOR ALL YOUR LIFE BECAUSE OF YOUR IMMATURE BELIEVES


blaming others for your incompetence, your father should fucking wip you ass


saged&hiden

Your making assumptions of me that aren't true, I'm not poor.

>especially with that trans-pacific trade partnership deal that will pass.
You speak in absolutes that are not yet absolute, you are assuming things. Which is not a bad thing, but again demonstrates a defeatist attitude. If you go into a volleyball game thinking "I will absolutely lose", then you have no incentive to win and will most likely lose. You can apply this to today's world as well, why even start a business if you "know" it is going to fail?

Your book is a work of fiction, and is subject to bias by the author. You are operating as if the book is "absolute" as well.

If you believe you will never lose weight, you will always be fat

If you believe you will never get a girlfriend, you will never get one.

If you believe you will never be successful at anything, you will never be successful.

Regardless, I will respect your beliefs. If you wish to blame society rather than a man's single self determination, then do so. I will not stop you.

Here you go mate.

Defeatist or realist?

Remember when "the people" stopped the west from attacking Syria through protest? We're bombing them daily right now.

I can't even remember its name now but the masses managed to get some internet law blocked a few years back and it was just reintroduced sneakily the next year and the politicians got it passed.

Society isn't the problem is sick due to corruption, corruption that was inevitable in a capitalist system due to its manner of rewarding the morally corrupt.

The book was a fictitious adaptation of the authors observations, its not entirely fictitious.

I have a girlfriend.

I have been successful in areas but I'm not going to delude myself, its a rigged game, you can't win it by determination alone it takes luck. (or favor from some gents in white gloves)

You wouldn't give the advice of gambling at casinos as a means to be successful in life so why would you promote capitalism.

>you can't win it by determination alone it takes luck.
Going back to the story of Frederick Trump, it was not a story of luck at all.

His father died when he was relatively young, leaving the medical expenses to turn the family entirely broke and worthless. Frederick himself died at a relatively young age, but left what he built to his kin so they could expand upon it and become part of the elite.

I do like the gambling part you mentioned, because if you never play the game you never had the chance to win

Adding onto the story of Frederick as well, the minerals rights for his land is also a part to observe in regards to luck. Frederick, as mentioned before, never had any intention of mining for minerals and never did. There was a point where there could have been luck, but that was refused.

> if you never play the game you never had the chance to win

True though today the game is rigged and there is very little room at the tables.

Also as for Frederick Trump, I did a bit of reading, the guys history isnt as clean cut as you made it seem.

He owned brothels....

Which I won't lie I would go full little finger and pimp out hoes if the proposed laws were changed and I could afford the seed cash for a swanky hotel.

The point remains he had to exploit women pretty hardcore to make his way.

Its also worth mentioning that he somehow managed to save up today's equivalent of 5000-7000 dollars working as a barber which was also enough to buy a restaurant and enough supplies to start the restaurant/whorehouse.

Today I reckon you'd need FAR more cash to start up and buy a hotel on top of that barbers make fuck all to save up cash with.

Did a little searching and a hotel would cost $100k minimum nowadays and that is just to buy it not furnish it.

Good luck saving that up as a barber....

>Comic books
Sigh

its a full 600 page novel, the comics posted here are just adapted from a few pages of the book.
