Infinite jest
>>24769456Malcom Gladwell okay, but Taleb? Really? He's certainly not the best, but he's lightyears ahead of someone like Harari.To be fair though I've heard his Twitter takes are p. cringe.
>>24769414xkcd's What If isn't slop
>>24769414I like Jon Ronson. But I am a midwit so ok.

>>24770400they are just having a laugh they dont mean it
>>24770401>Ooga booga
>>24770401Lmao I just noticed it
>>24770502But Mackbros like me are sensitive and you should be nice to us. When you call our favorite book "slop" many of us tend towards a Mikey-esque downward spiral that can only end with the disgorgement of too many Hungry Man meals and ruined sleep schedules.

>>24770148No, you're right. He's the Boomer DFW or Jonathan Franzen, desperate to write the defining American novel and always failing.
>>24769456hehe yid thinks we can’t see its posts
>>24769488>lightyearsHe attempted to insult the economist Stephanie Kelton by calling her a "rent-seeker", both misusing the term to begin with but further confounding it by the fact that she works at a private institution and on the basis of her most recent book, something she cannot force anyone to buy, and all simply because he, like every other 4chan user, cannot understand monetary theory.He's the perfect Boomchanner, always malapropating buzzwords to sound smart (see the constant 4chan misuse of neoliberal or neoconservative) but in fact not knowing anything. He's like the Sam Hyde of the retirement home set.>dude just get a mentor and an indispensable skill it's called anti-fragile that way you can be ready for the black swan event which i can predict but never once actually have
>>24770408Half of those are worth reading.
>>24769414xkcd: What If? Is actually good.
>>24770422>>24770400Someone hates Wallace
>>24770408The Devils is a midwit filter. How many midwits read Crime and Punishment and Notes From Underground only to hit a wall with Dosto's best novel.
Guenon, evola, carl schmitt
>>24769414from what i've read and off the top of my headDostoevsky is obviousIvan BuninDino Buzzati, particularly The Tartar SteppeCollapse: The Fall of the Soviet Union - Vladislav Zubokthat charles manson book that had a resurgence a couple years ago Christopher Lasch, just absolutely awful Alfred JarryThat Oxford US History series Albion's Seed Jacques BarzunSoseki in general but especially I Am a CatDonald BarthelmeThe Search For Modern China - Jonathan Spence Euclid's Elements, but it's still beautifulthat's all i got now

Any book with F*ck in the title.
>>24769488small hats are just mad he calls them out every day on x dot com
Any political theory written by blacks or hispaniks
Anything on bestseller lists.
>>24769415>Robert Saplosky - BehaveThat has some good information in it mixed with coping about how the leftist worldview still makes sense with blank slate-ism being proved a lie.>>24770408Seething leftist spotted. You couldn’t even explain to me the contents of any of these books without a google search. Do you even understand what Peterson’s ideas are or do you only know the false construction emergent from the online mob which you confuse for reality which exists purely as a means to rationalize parasitism? You mearly hate him and want to tear him down out of envy because he is a great man. I doubt most normies even know about many of these books. Much less have read them. Do you actually think normies are regularly reading Eliade and Pankseep?
>>24770601>desperate to write the defining American novel for ragebait to work it has to be somewhat believable
>>24770867Leftist spotted
>>24770632>MMT grifteryeah shes a rent seeker
>>24769414Cormac McCarthy - Blood Meridian
George Orwell - 1984
>>24770408All of those are worth reading except for Maps of Meaning.
>>24773390Yeah, that's massively overrated.
>>24773419His message is made in 20 pages, the rest is either cartoonishly misguided worldbuilding or torture porn at the expense of the reader, that is to say he loves hammering the point into the skull of the reader for half the book.
