So, any thoughts?
>>24712949First chapter is a hard filter, and likely the reason why people say it is unreadable schizobabble. Objectively badly written, a fucking headache with the way he jumps from one topic to the next almost in the same sentence. Afterwards it either gets better or you get used to it, not sure and lord knows I am not going back to it to ascertain thatAs far as what value you can extract from it, I'd say very little. If you pick it up to learn about nazism, you will be sorely disappointed. The whole nazi ideology according to it exists solely to oppose Marxism, substituting a racist theory of history to the msterialist theory of history. Problem is, a definition of it is never given, let alone expanded upon. So you get an awkward situation where you can learn about communism by reading das capital, but you can't learn about national socialism by reading MK, which you always see being peddled around as its main text. Maybe there are other ideological texts that serve that function, but idk why they are not shilled nearly as much aside for the fact that hitler is a charismatic great Satan figure that is intriguing while whoever wrote something of actual value about nazism is a literal whoThe Jewish question is also conspicuously understated in contrast to what you'd be lead to believe according to the mystic surrounding it. He seethes about frogs just as much if not more than he does about kikesThe autobiographical sections are mildly interesting, I can see a young neo nazi feeling galvanised and hyped while reading about how he and his buddies totally schooled those stinky commies and the whole town adored them or how he managed to not be drown out in anarchists trying to silence him while he was making a speech at the brewery and soon everyone was hypnotised by his rethoric, but I don't think they belong to a political tractatus and they feel super out of placeAs far as politics go it is super mild stuff. Just your average conservative political program that you may or may not agree with but nothing mind blowing. Stuff like "kids should do more PE in school"The international politics section is the most lucid, so much so that it feels like someone else wrote it, but it is super outdated stuff that will not be useful to any current day political program

any modern pro-white movement would do well to play up the aesthetics of nazism while burying the specifics lest people start noticing hitler's life and opinions were incredibly cringe and söy
>>24713672>you must wholeheartedly suck hitlers cock 24/7 otherwise you are a jewish mystic puppetmaster
>>24712949It's pretty wild to see how generational the narrative surrounding this guy is. At the current rate he will 100% be seen as a hero betrayed by the world in ten, twenty years time.
>>24713923it tends to happen as people get further and further removed from the events that took place historically. millennials and zoomers are bombarded with retarded nazi propaganda 24/7 right now on social media by faggots like nick fuentes and shit combined with the fact that literally everyone hates israel right now except for boomer evangelical americans, therefore people conflate israel with jews as a whole. i think these pro hitler times will pass in 5 years actually once israel is taken to justice.
>>24713923the morality of the things you did never matters in the end. it's the magnitude of the actions.
>>24713931Is spic fuentes not eternally nagging about how we can‘t be actual nazis for reasons of optics anymore? I see this and never know if it‘s the grand game of people who call everything naziism or if the times they really are a changin. Anyway, two more weeks.
>>24713692^This is what an agent provocateur would say btwClearly, running around like harebrained knuckledraggers has worked wonders for the right so far, rather than simply pressing the fact that a diverse society eventually consumes and destroys its host
>>24713187I have a higher opinion of the book than this guy, but he's mostly right, especially on>He seethes about frogs just as much if not more than he does about kikesIt's one of those things that's usually engaged with by people predisposed to either love or hate it, and the reality is that it's neither a particularly good nor bad book. Considering it was dictated and not read I'd say it's moderately impressive in some ways, but that's not much of an endorsement for such a long read.I probably goofed by reading the Manheim translation instead of one of the more authentic ones, but it felt reasonably faithful, granting Adolf his fair share of style and personality where possible, and I like the decision to make Hitler refer to various of his enemies as "twerps."It's true that it's pretty unhelpful as a guide to NS, but it was always meant as a personal story and not a manifesto, and a lot of the specifics weren't really worth laying out at that point for various reasons (watch "Triumph of the Will" if you want something more like a national socialist manifesto; it's also not an amazing work of art, but it's a concise and worthwhile document). The regionalized and surprisingly casual approach to specifics of implementation is a big part of what makes NS and to a lesser extent fascism stand out from Marxism and other "top down" ideologies anyway.I recommend people read it, because it's a chance to hear out the most important and misunderstood man of the 20th century in his own words, but it can feel like homework at times.
I think that zero effort writing prompts are spam and every board on the site ought to have a minimum contribution thresholds like /s/.
>>24712949Decent book.Some stuff I thought was good was the differentiation between subjects and citizens, to be citizens women must give birth and men must serve in the military to ensure there is a future and someone to safeguard that future, doing so would elevate a person from subject to citizen giving them the right to vote.Stuff that is outdated is the idea of living space as the book was written before fertilizers and industrial farming took off after ww2 (1950s if I remember correctly) so the mathematics for having enough land to feed so many people became irrelevant.The cultural subversion is correct both influencing the minds of the populous and injecting immigrants into the land.I can't remember too well the topics of banks and economics.Would recommend as an introduction to Hitler then you should read other ww2 stuff.
>>24712949I ain’t reading another german thinker that write unreadable cinderblocks of books.
Which translation should i get
>>24712949I only read a few chapters I should finish it
>>24714832thisany certified Übermensch willing to help?
>>24714832My understanding is Ford and Stalag are best. I unfortunately read Manheim and it's supposed to be the worst one.
I was laughing at the sheer irony when he explains why you should beware young men with political aspirations pretty much describing Nick FuentesI denounce the Talmud and Zohar btw
