Only educated men are fit to discuss politics
There's no excuse to be uneducated when most knowledge is free and accessible today
World leaders read this. Will you?
>>519814767You have read the books, but how are you going to implement the information into reality?
These are classics
>>519814900You lead, mother fucker. That's what these books allow for. You end up with knowledge that 99% of the world does not have.
Here's a popular one
Hope you fags don't actually advocate for legal plunder. Picrel
I'm guessing no one here reads. Sad!
>>519814767>history of the peloponnesian war without xenophons hellenicaYou don't read either. You're a poser who claims he does.Thucydides died before finishing his work. Xenophon picked it back up. No one knows this because you're all midwit frauds whose so-called noticing is kosher approved tidbits from think tanks.
>>519815390>reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee>doesn't leave a bookFuck off nigger
>>519815054urgh, you sound like Cooperite.
>>519815390You stupid nigger I actually do read these books, and yes I'm completely aware his Histories was unfinished. I almost regret reading Book 1 given how much of a fucking slog it was and having to look a map half the time to absorb it. I also posted Xenophon here. Kys.
>>519815596You're a jewish fraud and you got exposed hiding history. No "posting xenophon" doesn't absolve you of what you all do: surgically removing hellenica - the resolution to the peloponnesian war.
>>519815539He didn't leave a book because he doesn't read and would rather bitch at me and call me a poser. Sucks to be him. I read.
>>519815390xenophon might be the better author, but thucydides history is basically the only book in the world that actually matters
>>519814896Next on my reading list
>>519815943Xenophons hellenica is the direct sequel. Thucydides work makes no sense without it. You are a fraud.
>>519816062>it doesnt make sense without the sequel
>>519815943>only book in the world that actually mattersAll ancient White histories and tales matter desu
>>519814767I used to read 100 books/year until I bough my first smartphone, 15 years ago. Now my attention disorder prevents me to read even a single book cover to cover.
>>519816153The last line of Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War:>"And having wintered in Miletus, they paid the soldiers out of the funds obtained from the prizes they had taken, and so ended the twenty-first year of this war of which Thucydides wrote the history."The first line of Xenophon's Hellenica:>"After this, not many days later, Thymochares came from Athens and with a few ships..."
>>519815901Lol I have this one ! Same guy did the translation!
>>519814767>You do read books, right /pol/?Avidly. Never bored if I have a book.
>>519816326not until we uncover our reciepts for building our chinese pyramids
>>519816418tell me why the greatest descendant of heracles would go to war with his father nation and birth right
>>519816062Thucydides is clearly the more important read you stupid faggot. >what is the start of the war >what is the funeral oration>what is the Melian Dialogue>learning about the plague in AthensYou read Thucydides for the understanding of human nature and less about the actual history of the war. Why the fuck should people care about the first naval battle at Naupactis? Some of the events are meh. That has been my interpretation of it. You're supposed to see how values like justice and freedom mean nothing anymore in times of fear and war. You are a retard though and will nitpick details instead of the core message.
>>519814956I love the homophobic passage of the Anabasis. So much for the sodomitic narrative.
>>519815943You will enjoy reading Plutarch's Parallel Lives, Saint Augustine's City of God, Appian's history of the Roman civil wars and Livy's history of the Roman Republic. Also, have a look at Polybius, Josephus and Herodotus.
>>519816770tell me the best source on hadrian and ill let that slide
>>519816528How subversive of you>>519816521>get cornered>immediately change subjectsI won.jews hate Hellenica and never recommend it when they curate the kosher-stamped "reading list" for /pol/ (Which no one reads because you're all frauds)
>>519817002socrates is a heracleid you fucking stupid piece of shitshut your fucking mouth or get the fuck out of the threadinfernal insect
The most important writings in American history. How much of /pol/ has even looked at it?
I listen to audiobooks
>>519817088>jew approved summary narrative with the kosher-stamp You're a fraud>real anti federalist papershttps://constitution.org/1-Constitution/afp.htm
>>519816382Just go 10 days without 4chan or YouTube or social media and you will be attentive while reading again. Your dopamine levels are fucked. You have to reset them. >>519817002Almost no one reads any of these books. These books are rarely read even amongst the most educated. If you want to read Hellenica then do it. I'm posting a world class education regardless of your bitching.
>>519814767my dad made me read this during the summer of 9th or 10 grade, that and the decline and fall of the athenian republic. I have used a quote from that book hundreds of times since to decribe the danger of liberals/jews and their pet minorities>“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”
>>519817504we all know luther is standard for american founding
>>519817504You're a nigger. I've read these books. However I have not read the anti-Federalist papers. I probably should! Here's another important one. Read it and then watch the Malcolm X movie by Spike Lee. It's good.
>>519815331>actually reading milton friedmandurr.. i read ancient classic and literal drivelpeak midwit
>>519819388>American flag>calls Friedman "drivel"You are a communist.Picrel is another important American read
>>519819642i am not a communistyou are 22 years old and a midwit, probably ugly too
>>519818077>I have not read the anti-Federalist papers.To no one's surprise>admitting youre less well read than a fucking nigger.Amazing self-own. 9/11-tier controlled demolition. You're the building 7 of intellectuals.
>>519815943>t. hasn't read Polybius You have so much to learn young padawan
>>519814767unnecessary read. if you're into military history, statecraft, and politics, there's a lot to gain, but it's so foundational and popular every lesson it can possibly teach has already been absorbed into broader popular culture, repackaged, and disseminated again throughout time. the only possible reason to read it is if you are learning greek and reading it in greek, which still imparts a great deal of gain. but pretending anyone needs to read some dumb translation of thucydides is totally retarded. if you're going to read english, read english classics, not translations.
>>519819728No you're a communist. Milton Friedman is an American hero. I don't care what you say. >>519819799Meanwhile you still haven't posted anything. >less well read than a fucking niggerSpeaking of niggers, here's another nigger book I've read recently. It's good. He's pretty inspiring actually.
>>519817976all of which while quite eloquent is much more succinctly learned by the basic understanding that democracies don't work, irresponsible money management leads to ruin, which everyone but faggot retard commies already know, and the much pithier "hard times create..." meme. it's simply a useless thing to read thucydides, unless you're a hobbyist or a writer yourself. but your dad could've done much worse.
>>519820003Yeah, OP is beat, but you think I'll let you get away?You're just baton passing OP's attempt to bury Xenonphon's Hellenica now that he's cooked - and you think you can bury Greek history with it.Not with me around. You are a jew.
>>519820228i'm a german american bro, i don't have a drop of kike in me, but whatever you say retard because i'm not namedropping your pet history. i stand by the learned men of /lit/. translations are pointless. learn greek or don't bother.
>>519820003Possibly true. It's a thought I've had. Some old books don't hold the same weight they used to because shows like Game of Thrones educate about power just as well. Not reading Thucydides for that reason though feels like a betrayal of my curiosity.
>>519820305read george grote's history of greece. don't waste your time unless you're using it wisely to LEARN GREEK
>>519820063>watch my gay shit even though I don't know a thingWatch Disney's Song of the South.Niggers liked slavery and think back fondly on it. That's why they call this movie racist. It's not racist at all. It tells the truth.
>>519820305>jump through these hoops to learn historynice try, kike.
>>519820470Your low IQ is showing. Read his book. Every slave wanted freedom. Literally every one of them. This is what he writes about early on. They were crying when white men came to the plantations and told them they were free after the war. However it was immediately followed by fear and a sense of loss. They didn't know what to do or where to go. Some of the slaves were old and were conflicted since they had no skills and no time to learn.You are brainwashed by /pol/. Quit being an actual retard
>>519820975You're talking to the low IQ. So I'm winning them over, too.

>>519822115Have fun schizoposting and blaming dajooz. You need meds.>I'm your worst nightmareYou're nothing to me actually.I never knew a white man to persuade people into not reading books. That's all you're doing here. >b-but you didn't post the Hellenic!!1!And you still haven't posted anything. I'm starting to think you might actually be a subversive Jew.
>>519823591It's called 'Hellenica'. Spell it correctly so it can be found. Also capitalize that W on huWhite. Show proper respect to your superiors, yidboy.
>>519814767sure but i treat history as fictionif they're all dead then so is the point of knowing what happenednow the books that show you how things work and how to build such and suchwhich gears turn this motion into that motionchemical handbooks and design docsthese are good booksmost philosophy and all spirituality go right in the bin
>>519824273That's why you're not one of us and you never will be.

>>519824416yes and what a great loss.....whoever you arehey i'm not shitting on the idea of enjoying storiesjust against the idea of just stories being held in the same high regard as actually valuable booksso far every single posted work has been a narrative piece, fake and gay can be fun but where's the meat?
>>519824273>knowing how things work and not peopleThis is why you will be low to mid on the hierarchy. You will either be broke or rich and miserable. Neither is a position I want. You can bypass all the bullshit of the world with a foundation of the humanities like I've posted here. Good luck. I think you'll need it. >>519824453Which of those books is the most important? I'm trusting you.
>>519824453>You were doing so well until this.Don't insult me. You think I wouldn't catch you? You think I'll waste my time with the garbage you posted?>Israel did 9/11This has the kosher-stamp of approval, because it doesn't get us anywhere. Even Hasan Piker hates yidsrael. Everyone tries to blend in as revolutionary by hating Israel.>jews did 9/11better, not not a high enough bar to prove you're one of us. jews are proud of doing 9/11 and take a twisted satisfaction knowing it's already pretty much out of the bag and hasn't killed them.>jews rape kidsNow we're getting somewhere. But this is only basic antisemitism. It can be handwaved away as low-IQ antisemitism. >jews are canaanitesCannibals.Neadnderthal animals.I love this, because it's checkmate, really. Check the skull shape. But my favorite thing to say these days? THE AMISH ARE RIGHT. LET THE YIDS DIE IN THE CITIES.
Im reading their (((manual))) and im enjoying it
>>519824955Forgot pic
>>519824955It's the best book ever written. But don't stop at The Torah Read the other books. The prophets. Poetry and Wisdom. Scrolls, like the Song of Songs, etc. and of course the New Testament.
>>519825244>and of course the New Testament.NT is boring
>>519825427[...] a hole through the hearts of yids as they're denounced forever
>>519814767Damn right.
>>519825007Jewish literature is full of fucked up shit like Molech and raping toddlers. No thanks.
>>519825703And yet you post that video. Is that all you need to know?
Can confirm that at least the first four suggestions are top tier
>>519824955>>519825007I've thought about reading this only because Thomas Sowell recommends it. Some of us (me) can read things that challenge us without sperging out.
Also my Korean friend suggested this to me. Anyone here read it? I know it's a very famous book among Sinos but it sounds another book where you read a page, stop, research, and repeat. I feel like it will be slow
>>519827309Knowing how you research, you would come away armed with wikipedia summaries, and books by "That Guy" summarizing what you actually should be reading.Someone like you isn't suited for reading history... You should try shoe salesman.>Hey, you want to see our new Nikes?Practice that.
>>519827465I don't know what you're talking about. You are obviously threatened by people who read. >you're not a REAL readerYou are a Jewish nigger posting with a dozen IDs.And since you still haven't posted anything (because you're a fag), here's part 2 of the History of the Peloponnesian War for anyone who is interested.
>>519828016That's good. Obeying me is always your best move. Remember that.
