Is Niccolò Machiavelli plebcore /his/?
>>
>>1177714
Yes and no.
>>
only the prince is

read discourses on livy if you want real machiavelli, it's his true magnum opus and not the prince
>>
It depends on whether you consider his work satire or not.
>>
>>1177744
>the prince
Wasn't that the equivalent of ironic shitposting that everyone misunderstood as a genuine thing.
>>
I have a copy of the Prince, is it worth reading?
>>
>>1177744
i mean dol is just elongated il principe
>>1177844
explain?
>>
>>1177870
Yes.

>>1177870
It's a short read.

DoL is pretty specific to statecrafters. The Prince is better for powerless plebeians like us who'd benefit more from reading Machiavelli on a general level.

>>1177844
nah,that's the leviathan
>>
>>1177870
its a good before bed read
>>
>>1177890
a single human being is weak,but far from powerless anon.
>>
>>1177844
