Annoying /pol/ invasion. It can be simultaneously true that the US is a racist society that does and has done terrible shit to non-white people and that there is or at least was an ongoing liberal domestic governance policy that had the goal of artificially generating and subsidizing a non-white middle class across all sectors of society, and that, being a governance policy developed by the Democratic Party in the 2010s, it was stupid, superficial, overly self-serious, full of grift and fraud, and in true American fashion could only frame racial categories as moral ones. But blaming Africans generally for some democrat operative writing a trash book is genuinely retarded. The only people who read that trash are professional middle managers, actual black leftists read Malcolm X and Huey Newton. /pol/-tards choose their enemies wisely, they can only wallow in culture war sophistry against their own likeness, i.e. woke pamphlets written by a DNC campaign manager or whatever. It is a mark of wisdom in abstaining from such ephemeral cultural ripples.

Braindead. The propaganda reflects the polices they're pushing and what brainwashed retards like you repeat as truth.
This propaganda you're defending as harmless is empirically one of the worst things in the history of humanity.

Even Rockwell fell short though. He essentially removed nearly all of the economic aspects of National Socialism from neo-Nazism since he saw it as too socialist for Americans to accept, This led to it being boiled down to not being too different from a generic racist/identitarian ideology, and invited the more boorish crowd associated with that. Even nowadays most people don't know much more besides what Feder wrote.

>There is a great deal of confusion in studying Hitler's family tree. Much of this is due to the fact that the name has been spelled in various ways: Hitler, Hidler, Hiedler, and Huettler. It seems reasonable to suppose, however, that it is fundamentally the same name spelled in various ways by different members of what was basically an illiterate peasant family. Adolf Hitler himself signed his name Hittler on the first Party membership blanks, and his sister usually spells her name as Hiedler. Another element of confusion is introduced by the fact that Adolf's mother's mother was also named Hitler, which later became the family name of his father. Some of this confusion is dissipated, however, when we realize that Adolf's parents had a common ancestor (father's grandfather and mother's great-grandfather), an inhabitant of the culturally backward Waldviertel district of Austria.
>Adolf's father, Alois Hitler, was the illegitimate son of Maria Anna Schicklgruber. It is generally supposed that the father of Alois Hitler was a Johann Georg Hiedler, a miller's assistant. Alois, however, was not legitimized, and he bore his mother's name until he was forty years of age when he changed it to Hitler. Just why this was done is not clear, but it is generally said among the villagers that it was necessary in order to obtain a legacy. Where the legacy came from is unknown. One could suppose that Johann Georg Hiedler relented on his deathbed and left an inheritance to his illegitimate son together with his name. It seems strange, however, that he did not legitimize the son when he married Anna Schicklgruber thirty-five years earlier. Why the son chose to take the name Hitler instead of Hiedler, if this is the case, is also a mystery that has remained unsolved. Unfortunately, the date of the death of Hiedler has not been established, and consequently we are unable to relate these two events in time. A peculiar series of events, prior to Hitler's birth, furnishes plenty of food for speculation.

>>24783551
>There are some people who seriously doubt that Johann Georg Hiedler was the father of Alois. Thyssen and Koehler, for example, claim that Chancellor Dollfuss had ordered the Austrian police to conduct a thorough investigation into the Hitler family. As a result of this investigation a secret document was prepared that proved that Maria Anna Schicklgruber was living in Vienna at the time she conceived. At that time she was employed as a servant in the home of Baron Rothschild. As soon as the family discovered her pregnancy she was sent back to her home in Spital where Alois was born. If it is true that one of the Rothschilds is the real father of Alois Hitler, it would make Adolf a quarter Jew. According to these sources, Adolf Hitler knew of the existence of this document and the incriminating evidence it contained. In order to obtain it he precipitated events in Austria and initiated the assassination of Dollfuss. According to this story, he failed to obtain the document at that time since Dollfuss had secreted it and had told Schuschnigg of its whereabouts so that in the event of his death the independence of Austria would remain assured. Several stories of this general character are in circulation.

> Those who lend credence to this story point out several factors that seem to favor its plausibility.

>1. That it is unlikely that the miller's assistant in a small village in this district would have very much to leave in the form of a legacy.
>2. That it is strange that Johann Hiedler should not claim the boy until thirty-five years after he had married the mother and the mother had died.
>3. That if the legacy were left by Hiedler on the condition that Alois take his name, it would not have been possible for him to change it to Hitler.
>4. That the intelligence and behavior of Alois, as well as that of his two sons, is completely out of keeping with that usually found in Austrian peasant families. They point out that their ambitiousness and extraordinary political intuition are much more in harmony with the Rothschild tradition.
>5. That Alois Schicklgruber left his home village at an early age to seek his fortune in Vienna where his mother had worked.
>6. That it would be peculiar for Alois Hitler, while working as a customs official in Braunau, to choose a Jew named Print, of Vienna, to act as Adolf's godfather unless he felt some kinship with the Jews himself.

It's interesting to me that the Pentagram website wikipedia ignores this detail about "Hitler's" genealogy and instead points exclusively to a debunked theory.
>Nazi Hans Frank suggested that Alois's mother had been employed as a housekeeper by a Jewish family in Graz, & 19-year-old son Leopold Frankenberger had fathered Alois, a claim that called the Frankenberger thesis

Fascism no longer exists in its original form. Capital no longer wants or needs a singular strongman to guarantee endless return on investment. They have been able to expropriate and privatize more or less whatever they want from the commons for decades.
Most contemporary self-indentified 'fascists' are lone individuals looking for some kind of transgressive persona in order to scrape some kind of autonomy in a world that affords them less and less.

I'm the first anon you replied to. None of my hobbies overlap with female interests; I never go out, as all my friends have moved away; even if I had any female work colleagues to choose from, I still wouldn't because dating coworkers is never a good idea. Thus I view online dating as my only remaining option.

I'm so desperate to have a gf but at my age I have zero enthusiasm for any of my prospects and I know they'd have negative enthusiasm if they saw me.
It all feels so fucking hopeless. I don't understand how my life ended up like this.

5 books on my shelf that are "to read" during spook-season:
1. "De Profundis" ~ O. Wilde
2. "The Narrative of A. Gordon Pym of Nantucket" ~ E. A. Poe
3. "The Little Sister" ~ R. Chandler
4. "The Secret History" ~ D. Tartt
5. "Streets of Laredo" ~ L. McMurtry

>>24783216
The Secret History is as pretentious as you can get. The characters are all unlikeable and unredeemable. Though I've never actually finished a book I've hated this much before reading The Secret History, so that's something going for it. It doesn't need much more of a review than that. Good luck with your read through.

God is "cheeky" hiding his glorious wisdom in such an obscure place, and sealing it behind the word of man's saying it has to be from the Americas, only to be revealing itself to be from Africa in these last days; it is so good of the Lord to show his hand to us.

>>24783740
It is a classic in its own right; you have to read it to see it for its richness, that it could not have been made in modern times in the method of making a novel, even if inspired; it has to be from the ancient times it claims, even if compiled and redacted.

I've never seen anyone else use it and apart from its different shape from other models, the difference is that you can choose how "yellow" you want your pages to be. Not really worth the extra price but it has a nice premium feel.

NTA but neither of you are totally wrong. Bloom's sex drive was killed off with the death of their son, but Molly's obviously wasn't. iirc there's a scene where he sees two animals fucking and his mind immediately goes to conception and then death of his child so there's a mental block there he can't get beyond. In Molly's chapter at the end it's clear she's still in love with him but she does want him to "man up and give her the dick" in a sense, and she essentially admits to cucking him to hope to get a rise out of him so he'll fuck her again; in the absence of this she says she'll continue to rub her affair in his face (literally, if she has to).
