>>25424438this. it's frustrating how 4chan atheists don't realize that Chriatianity is infinitely more Antisemitic than Hitler was.How many Jews are there today? Now imagine all of them except for 144,000 killed by Jesus. And then after the general resurrection and Judgment, every non-Christian will tortured forever in fire and worms. Also, just because someone claims to be Jewish doesn't mean they actually are. The only real Jews are the ones who accept their very own Messiah, but the rest are lizards, synagogue of Satan.Jesus is Lord.

So, what else should I read to satisfy my autism about boats and sailors especially?I’ve read, of course, Treasure Island, Master & Commander, the Mutiny on the Bounty trilogy, The Terror, and a great nonfiction book called Jack Tar: Life in Nelson’s Navy. I couldn’t get into Captain Blood or Horacio Hornblower.

people in the last thread were talking about Arabic and how it lacks good content, but I wonder are Persian and Turkish better?
>>25424481In the same vein I’ve always been curious about chagatai. It was a major literary medium for like 600 years or something. But I doubt there’s much scholarship outside of central asia nowadays on it, even though a lot of the corpus is mughal.
you know the drillWikipedia challenge: Go on Wikipedia, click on 'random article' and describe what it is about in your TL.Easy mode: 50 wordsMedium: 75 wordsHard: 100+ words
>>25424537Actually there are a few English textbooks on Chagatai and some Russian and Chinese ones as well. The Chagatai-language Tarikh-e-Hemidi is a very important account of late Qing Xinjiang history and has been translated into English, modern Uyghur, and Chinese, and there are also various other histories and documents from Xinjiang and pre-Russian Uzbekistan.It's easiest to learn Chagatai if you have an understanding of modern Uzbek or Uyghur, it's basically just Uyghur with more Persian grammar and a few words with different meanings For instance därya is sea in Chagatai and river in Uyghur (Uyghur uses Turkic dëñiz for sea)

What mass market stuff do you guys enjoy? Surely you don't exclusively read classics or highly literary stuff all the time.

>>25410569You might find it better. The first book does read like grittier YA lit and the author starts to move away from that pretty smoothly in the following ones. The Gary Stu issue is hard to get away from, but I liked quite a few of the supporting characters and it's made clear later on that the events of the story depend on more than just him.

What are some of your favorite allusions to feet in literature? In the Odyssey it says Hebe is the one with beautiful feet
>>25410382*My dear Bagginses and Boffins*, he began again; *and my dear Tooks and Brandybucks, and Grubbs, and Chubbs, and Burrowses, and Hornblowers, and Bolgers, Bracegirdles, Goodbodies, Brockhouses and Proudfoots*. ‘ProudFEET!’ shouted an elderly hobbit from the back of the pavilion. His name, of course, was Proudfoot, and well merited; his feet were large, exceptionally furry, and both were on the table.~ J. R. R. Tolkien, ‘The Fellowship Of The Ring’
>>25423923There's a lot of focus on legs and feet in Lawrence in general.
>>25410382Next to age and disease nothing repels us so much as a deformed figure; even the most beautiful face cannot atone for it; on the contrary, even the ugliest face when accompanied by a straight figure is unquestionably preferred. Further, we feel every disproportion of the skeleton most strongly; for example, a stunted, dumpy, short-boned figure, and many such; also a halting gait, where it is not the result of an extraneous accident. On the other hand, a strikingly beautiful figure can make up for all defects: it enchants us. Here also comes in the great value which all attach to the smallness of the feet: it depends upon the fact that they are an essential characteristic of the species, for no animal has the tarsus and the metatarsus taken together so small as man, which accords with his upright walk; he is a plantigrade.~ Arthur Schopenhauer, ‘The World As Will And Representation: Appendix’

I never got into Goosebumps heavily but the one where the main character ends up in some monster kid's closet and the kid hides him from his parents like a pet until the end reveal that the MC is human but regarded as a monster by whatever the other characters were, stuck with me over the years.I was reading other fucked up YA at the time anyway, non-horror horror like Animorphs.
>>25424619>Goosebumps & Animorphs>fucked up
>>25424619>AnimorphsI went on a date with a chick who spent an unusually long time describing how well Animorphs was written. And she was like 30 years old and working on getting her own novel published. I wasn't sure what to think about anything I heard that day.
I remember the story about a bullied girl that tries to punish her bullies with black magic, but they take the initiative and turn her into a bird instead, it was fucked up.

Communist/socialist society can exist so long as you exclude sociopaths, narcissists, psychopaths and BPDs and low IQ morons.The reason why it imploded and why it was met with so much resistance externally is because of evil people and partly because of ignorant and stupid people, but really more so evil people.evil people don't like communism or socialism.mainstream communists and socialists for some reason don't bother with the idea that maybe some people are inherently incompatible with communism. I would love to live in a commune with good people, but the moment you include evil people in the commune it will implode. This is why it fails. and no, you mostly can't educate them into being good.There are also some things that mainstream communist literature gets really wrong, like the concept of ownership. you shouldn't own other good people, but owning objects or property that can be used for good is not a problem in and of it self. this might sound close to something like National Socialism but it's really not. Nazis are evil because they don't have a concept of good. they just care about society in a strictly exploitative manner or exhaustive manner. communists are generative, national socialists are degenerative, even if they put a front that says otherwise.And finally good and evil transcend race. race can maybe be correlated to some extent but it's not a very strong correlation. most white people for example are actually evil, not good. because most humans in general are evil.
