Not a very challenging book but it's pretty good.

If you want to go beyond that, read Leviathan and its Enemies by Sam Francis.

If you are vaguely paleoconservative and nationalist or ethnonationalist, Francis is indirectly probably half the reason you hold the beliefs you do.

god damn i miss real workers' movements

the whole 20th century is one long story of countries trying to establish mild national socialism, and the soul-crushingly successful faggot finance classes manipulating rotting bourgeois state apparatuses to stop it. there's never been an oligarchy this fucking retarded. to stay in power, it had to extend its own decadence and degeneration to the general population, to turn all the cesar chavezes of the world into faggot trannies and low-test hipsters living on infinite debt.

I'm reading a book by a political pundit right now. I'm only going to finish it because I'm a little OCD about finishing books, it's short, and to learn my lesson about ever reading a book by a fucking TV personality.

It's kind of given me a theory about TV personalities, and why their books are so bad. I suspect they get so much validation from the public, as popular media figures, that they just come to believe they're special and whatever they do is gonna be good. The result is books that are stupid, not because they're stupid, but because they're lazy and don't actually put in enough work to write anything that isn't totally shallow.
