His discussions on Dostoyevsky and Biblical stories are pretty comfy. I think he would have been much happier as an English prof.

It would be wholly unremarkable work if it weren’t for the fact that it makes breadtube trannies utterly seethe because they think personal responsibility is fascism

>cry on camera to promote traditional masculinity

Fuck, why did I laugh at that?

>>13939975
you dont need to read marx to criticize him. thats like saying you cant criticize hitler until you've read mein kampf. Or better yet, you cant criticize capitalism until you've read milton friedman

>>13939937
I don't know why people hate him so much.
Do me a favor and read GQ or Vogue/Cosmopolitan. Are the life advice on those magazines any better than the one he gives?

>>13939975
Made me chuckle
Nice list anon

>>13939947

>you dont need to read marx to criticize him. thats like saying you cant criticize hitler until you've read mein kampf. Or better yet, you cant criticize capitalism until you've read milton friedman

But if you don’t want your criticism to be surface level high-school cringe trivia, you have to engage with the material, yes. Even Mein Kampf.

I watched some of his clips on youtube. I was actually impressed and read this, then changed my opinion on him real fast and realized it was only charisma.

Hitler wasn't a thinker, he was a man of action, so people criticize his actions. the fact that he wrote some memoirs are not the actions most people are interested in. Marx was an economist (/sociologist/philosopher/whatever,) so if you haven't read him there's nothing interesting you could possibly have to say about him.

>>13940467
You really should read Mein Kampf if youre going to talk about Hitler in a professional capacity.

No, it is not:

No.

Why would he read Marx when e can just get an overview and summary from wikipedia Bucko.

>>13939947
This is like a normie Twitter post

>>13939937
There arw good parts in it, but if you don't cringe at least once per chpater you're probably not paying attention.

except you didn't read the book and don't realise that he's contextualizing kids as potentially agressive silly chimps who need a bit of discipline or imposed respect through whatever means as long as it's humane

>criticize marx by talking about the people who followed his teaching
>NOOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT READ THIS BIG BOOK. STILL SHIT UH NO IT DOESN'T COUNT READ THIS ONE INSTEAD

Marxists are liar, no need to engage them on what they'vre written. Better do it on what they've done.

>>13944346
>Karl Marx, you're CANCELED!

>>13941575
Exactly

>Complaining about reading on a literature board.
Also, it's obvious that those who claim to follow a specific teaching often distort, misrepresent, or misunderstand it, leading to the putting into practice of bastardized forms of a a philosophy.

What's wrong about any of this? Little kids love antagonizing people

>>13945283
I'm addressing the fact that people can't criticize Marx without reading him. If your philosophy birth countless suffering, maybe it isn't that good.

>b-but it wasn't real communism
"Communism is for us not a state of affairs which is to be established, an ideal to which reality [will] have to adjust itself. We call communism the real movement which abolishes the present state of things. The conditions of this movement result from the premises now in existence."

>He had already concluded that adults were contemptible, and that he could safely defy them. (Too bad, then, that he was destined to become one.)
Unironically poetic.

The literary critic Kenneth Burke read Mein Kampf and in his following essay "The Rhetoric of Hitler's Battle" fairly competently deduced Hitler's later actions just from reading the book.
