I'm sick of pol and it's rampant antisemitism spilling into this board.

How would books written by liberals about not believing in God improve someone?
>>24326447
Is that a real book? I thought Martin Luther was all about equality, civil rights and ending bigotry.

You sound like a pretty unbalanced person. Try reddit maybe?

this is the ultimate Robot book.
I first read it in the waiting room at my lawyer's office, oddly enough.

It short story, so won't take much of your time. But every robot should read this.
Solaris' ending left me pretty devastated and I don't even know why.

Dont read The Stranger, its fucking horrible. One of the shittiest books ive ever read.

from dark souls?

The original Martin Luther was a white German. Niggers will steal anything, even names.

Hilarious post friendo

Fairly enjoyed the fuck outta this book.
Enough shitposting. I need recs to help get me out of this hole.

Pieces of paper with combinations of 26 letters are not going to help you.
Nothing can help you.

Try "On the Jews and their Lies" by Martin Luther.

Fuck off.

I already know there's fishy shit going on behind the scenes. No more need for memes.

The Ego and His Own - Max Stirner
Prepare to get fucking spooked.
This book can be hard to find but is possibly one of the most important books of the 21st century.
Honourable mentions:
>Industrial Society and its Future by Theodore Kaczynski
>Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler
Grapes of Wrath is a good read as well.

"Equality can only exist between equals. Civilization implies division of labor, division of labor implies subordination and subordination implies injustice and inequality."

okay book, but personal growth will not happen if you're older then like 12 and these thoughts crossed your mind like a million times.
one flew over the kekoos nest is not only overrated, but definitely will not make you grow as a person.
>>24326579
That movie was good though but I don't think it really makes you grow.
It has almost nothing to do with computers, and it really helped me. You'll just have to believe me.

my lief is change :3

nice try, JIDF
>>24326736
I agree. It's also wise, before going into the story, to learn the context of what Melville was going through while writing it.
>son committed suicide
>wife wants him to leave her because she thinks he is insane
>lost his audience because he stopped writing cheap adventure serials and tried to write deeper novels
>he spent a few years perfecting Moby fucking Dick and everyone spit on him for it
This is the most robot book ever written. Every character is a robot.

Martin Luther was a hero, good job.

I've found pic related way better in terms of getting the thought behind Camus and it also peeked my interest for other philosophers.

Camus entire philosophy was inspired by a minor character from

interesting read for everyone with ambition or interest in politics, which isn't really that r9k, but you need to understand before you can imitate

same as the above, you need to learn before you can improve or imitate

>You need to love yourself before you are able to love others
Such bullshit could only be written by a psychanalyst
>>24332725
It's true though. Adult children of dysfunctional, loveless homes grow up unable to love themselves. It's impossible for them to genuinely love others because their hearts are empty.
Love is about giving. Can't give what you don't have.

Author speaks about it here
>>24332725
I've found the part where he explains how influences of your parents, both of your mother and father, might form you.
Helped me to realize the disfunctionality of my parents and therefore the causes or likely amplifiers of the social problems I was faceing. Once I identified those, I was able to activly tell my parents to fuck off when the further did them and had the means to activly work on the parts that I was missing.
I'm still autistic as fuck on occasions, but I do see an improvement.
To each his own though.

I thought we hated normies? That trash is an epic normie meme..
>>24326447
It's an interesting read about the Stanford Prison Psychological experiment. It's about how if you a random group of strangers, split them into prisoners and guards, and tell everyone that the prisoners are criminals who deserve to be punished, everyone executes their role perfectly. the prisoners express regret for imaginary crimes.

can't we just be reasonably open?

ive refrained from self-help books because my mind is already filled with enough of my own wordswordswordswordswords. Don't need some other rich piece of shit doctor to tell me a bunch of 'you shoulds' and 'insteads.'
>>24333277
nice dubs but sounds like you're just being a big fekin baby
Talks about a lot of surprising correlations in human behavior.
>>24333190
selfhelp books like "10 steps to become a chad" have no value as they're usually written by people who made it, mostly by luck/chance, while the ones buying and reading them will have a hard time recreating the specific circumstances that enabled those authors to now write a book like this.
Books like "The Art of Loveing" are rather reads to selfreflect. Without reflection there is no change. No Philosopher's work is going to ultimately change anything in anyones life, unless the person reading it reflects about what is applicable to them and starts to change from within themselves.
But I guess it comes mostly down to the persons motivation to change. When someone's motivated enough even a comicstrip might hold a deeper revelation that changes their life.
also anything ernest hemingway and graham greene, unless you're too far gone
>>24333305
>nice dubs but sounds like you're just being a big fekin baby
Okay, but how does calling myself a baby stop me hating myelf?
jesus christ man. bingo and book clubs.
you keep growing and your cells keep replicating and every time they do a little piece of the telomeres in your genome gets shaved off. what we forget here is our death is programmed into our growth.
>>24333346
You're coming off as a big baby right now. Maybe stop looking to others for reasons to hate yourself/not hate yourself? Do you blame your bullies too?
>Despise the world. Forasmuch as I know not the hour in which I must quit the world, I will not grow fond of it. O dear friends, beloved ones of my heart, be content that I cleave to you only with a holy friendship which may last forever; why should I cling to you with a tie which must needs be broken? I will prepare for the hour of death hand take every precaution for its peaceful arrival; I will thoroughly examine into the state of my conscience, and put in order whatever is wanting.

Turnabout is fair play I guess.

I read a lot. These are probably the books that changed something about my life the most out of everything I've read, in no particular order. Pic related is really short and easy for people who don't read.

Are you and your girlfriend still together? Did you outlast the honeymoon phase?

If /r9k/ recommends a book to you, add it to you your "never read" list
this one made me hate modern society even more
>>24333799
I found /r9k/ recommendation quite good in the past.

what would hoppe say about this
either this or the food of gods
>>24327468
Wow !!! Surprised to see Otto here ! Awesome read.
Also Sutton and of course, ya need to read Douglas Reed (controversy of zion)
>>24333968
"it has been said..." is not an argument
>>24333618
>Infinite Jest
I'm thinking about reading that book, but I heard it's extremely long and kind of confusing. Is it the kind of book that's best read when you take notes as you read along? I don't mind taking notes, but I'm just curious whether or not the fact that it's really long and confusing is just a meme or not.
>>24326595
I'm tired of this "pol" meme. Antisemitsm has been a part of 4chan before /pol/
>>24334053
Hey man you wouldn't want to hurt yourself. Why don't you go get a coloring book off the shelf
>>24334014
but it is a point
>>24334088
thanks man, will do.
nice dubs, btw.
>>24334098
Just read the book, it contains actual arguments not just talking points.
>>24334056
not really, racism before /pol/ deliberately trod the line between politically correct and incorrect because no one actually believed in it and the purpose was to get a rise out of people, it was more subtle
now it is just frothing at the mouth rants where you seem to want to make yourselves the object of fun
>>24334135
I don't think you can categorize all racism pre /pol/ on 4chin that way
Racism has definitely been here pretty much the whole time, as it's definitely been in humans pretty much the whole time (maybe?) or anyway longer than 4chan has existed
>>24334163
Not him, but Racism on /b/ was pretty fun, simply because it came from the lack of knowing. At least back then you could discuss certain topics like music or tv shows with blacks and not have the thread flooded with "Nigger" and have some decent discussion.
I tend to stay away from that shit now. Especially on /tv/
>>24334220
That was my first post on this topic as well.
I just think it's wishful thinking to think "it wasn't this real insidious racism pre pol, now it's changed and everyone is an antisemite who calls people coonaloon nigger every thread"
Maybe it ramped up a little, but only coz the site got bigger

That's outrageous.
