1984. Atlas Shrugged. The Fountainhead. Read these and thank me later OP.

>lumping 1984 in with Rand

Orwell was an anarchist.
>>
>>7807524
he was more of a social democrat than an anarchist. He worked with the British government and provided information to black list communist literature in the UK. He was a pretty awful hypocrite.
>>
>>7807663
He disliked authoritarian socialism. He only turned in Stalinists and Marxist-Leninists.
>>
>>7807481
Who is this semen demon? Maybe that will save this god awful leftist thread.
>>
>>7807512
Not a bad idea actually. Marx and Engels were very well read in the Classics, and studying them can actually give a good foundation for some of the things Marx builds upon in his writings.

As for OP's question:
Anything by Upton Sinclair
Grapes of Wrath
Les Miserables (leftist for the time, but more liberal republican today)
Hermanos - William Herrick
The Iron Heel - Jack London

Who were the classical leftists? I know Caesar was his times equivalent of a liberal.

Turning in any leftists, regardless of their ideology is reactionary and inherently undermines the socialist cause.

There weren't really any classical "leftists" in the modern sense of the word. The closest that there were are what are sometimes noted as proto-communist such as the early Christians, but Marx was inspired by many of the early Greek philsosophers such as Aristotle, Plato, and Euripides. Knowing the basics of these philosophers isn't inherent in understanding Marxist critique but it certainly doesn't hurt, especially if you want to study Hegelian dialectics before graduating to Marx's works.

Some people read into 1984 and see the failure of a powerful state. I see it as a sign of the failure of a state period. A powerful state can be a force for immense good. The entire defining factor is who is in control. You really need to build a system where there is no benefit to corruption and where the members of the power structure are those who genuinely want good for the people over their own selfish gains. Or rather, whose selfish gains lie in their identifying with the common people who they seek to serve.

you're a fool

OP may or may not be new but I've been coming to 4chan for about a decade, and I've never seen any reason to universally refrain from using emoticons

and no it isn't automatically ironic to use them even "knowing the culture" in whatever holy way you prefer; some people have emotions and are sometimes actually (believe it or not) earnest about expressing them

your bland kneejerk splurt of pointless defense of a community that only halfway exists (and that hates you anyhow, because it hates everyone) belongs here exactly as much and as little as OP's cutesiness does

Indeed, as they learn more about high culture reasonable people with no mental illnesses tend to gravitate towards the right.

You're the right wing equivalent to college liberals.

Just saying. You'll argue against it or consider what I'm saying to be some angry butthurt lefty, but by the numbers you're largely insufferable pretentious faggots who just happen to suck a different-flavored cock.

Naw, m8. Some lefties go that way. I'm all about strength, vitality, and freedom. If you want to suck a dick or take some hormones and get yourself a pair of titties, that's all on you. In 20 years I'll be sitting here with eyes upgraded to see ultraviolet. Possibly with a pair of bolted on titties. I can't begrudge people the desire to modify themselves.

As for kiddie-diddlers and cultural relativism? Hahaha, no. Superior cultures are superior, and egalitarian ubermensch culture is my personal brand of superior. Stand up and don't be a bitch and rock whatever you're trying to do.

Simplifying it to right and left is simplicity for the sake of idiocy. Consider the breadth of potential ideas. Take the strong points regardless of which side they're on. Call the weak points out for what they are. Don't box yourself in a corner.

And for fuck's sake, don't listen to demagogues.

The right is about putting others above you because they grant you a false sense of security. You think putting brutes into power will save you from da niggers, but it wont.
>>
>>7807914
That's bullshit. Just because two ideologies are on the same side of the left-right spectrum doesn't mean they should be allies. Authoritarian socialism and anarchism have little in common and it doesn't make sense for them to work together as they're working to achieve wildly different ends.

None of that means shit if you don't comprehend how to lead a country.

Aristocracy is what led to WW1.

You need a strong technocratic government that has the ability to read between the lines and do things, even if they're opposed by the people, that further the interests of an empowered, educated, and more egalitarian society.

Currently we have a corrupt plutocracy of NASCAR drivers with law degrees.
>>
>>7808878
In a realistic aristocratic situation none of that would actually matter. Unless your family is fucking loaded (billionaire tier) you would just be petite bourgeoisie.
