I went into this thinking it would be an ironic shitposty meme book, but I was surprised how many bits of genius and social commentary was in here.

Also a great fluid writing style, many facts and ideas about all kinds of subjects, and a practical conclusion.

It’s like a smart book but dumbed down so any idiot can understand it.

Great book, he has some good quotes:
>Animals walk around in a state of permanent religious intoxication. This is the natural condition of the mind and intellect, the moment-to-moment perception, of man as well. I heard some computer fool say that religion is the 'older virtual reality' experience, to justify his scam industry. No, the denuded state of the spirit and intellect, where you walk around 'demystified' and 'disenchanted' is the virtual reality condition, and a terrible condition at that.

>The masses are dazzled by the fridge, the phone: they live drugged by assurances that the wizards who produce these things are modest engineers who live by publicly verified procedures… Their comfort in the regularity of nature has taken divine fear and awe away from them.

>The dwellers of the valleys and tillers of the soil are the prototype for all the modern “bugmen,” don’t be fooled otherwise... In primitive farming societies they will immediately execute any of the intelligent as a witch: this is still done in Africa...

>Feminism then is the revolt of women against the outrage of democracy. They have been in a revolt against the inability of the bugman to command authority or respect

>Any man who improves his body through sun and steel will drift away from the modern left, a program of decrepitude and resentful monstrosity. They know this and are afraid.

>some computer fool

Sick diss.

Also, that shit is babby's first anti-technology screed. It seems a watered down version of Kazcynski, which, in turn, is Heidegger regurgitated by a man with a malnourished 90 point IQ.

inb4 "achktually, Kazcynski was smart and good at math". Fuck off. His arguments are probably some of the worst in print.

>> No.12451254

>>12451174
BAP's primary thesis isn't really to target technology specifically, although he certainly has influences from people like Kaczynski and Ellul. Kaczynski definitely isn't the most thorough anti-technology thinker but he's certainly the most accessible and for that he does a good job. You kind of just sound like a sperg tho desu

Hmmm I could see the argument either way, but then I'm certainly no English professor. The second half of the sentence is a direct explanation of the first half, so a colon is fine.
