You can't really blame Aurelius for that. There were a ton of factors that went into that. The cracks thst ended up breaking the Roman Empire had already been there for a long time before Commodus, anyways

How do I get into Marx? Should I jump straight into Das Kapital? Any pre required reading before actually reading him?

I'm not trying to discuss the ideology on itself, I just want to know where do I start with him.

I read people calling the thing in which Gregor Samsa transforms a bug

But its not a bug, its a vermin, a "Ungeziefer"
Big difference
In the original version its never called a bug

The book has nothing to do with changing sexes, as if thats even possible
Kafka was just totally fucked by life and his work reflects that
>>
It's about MGTOW. Gregor Samsa was a men's rights activist surrounded by feminazi SJW cucks.

Kafka was trying to redpill the white men of his time. Subtle, I know.

I don't blame him for it really, I just finished the book and I have no idea what he was writing about.

Baudrillard is what happens when you misread heidegger, mistake genre fiction for philosophy and skipped the best/most important parts of Marx for the worst parts like The Holy Family.

Pros and Cons of being an English major?

Currently, pre-med but really considering switching because I love English. Its my passion, and I can't stand science.

How are the job prospects?

Any information will be helpful, very unsure of my future.

Is the King James Bible really worth reading if I want to both understand Christianity and to appreciate its literary merits? Will it just be a waste of time unless one reads it purely for literary purposes? What parts can one skip/What parts are important?

Is it the most accurate translation? No. Will it give you a pretty good idea of what Christianity is about? Yeah.

there are too many books/movies about people going into the past to teach them about the future and not enough books about people going into the past to teach the present about them about the past. there could probably be a good book about going into the past to test sociological/anthropological theories and such

why did I waste time reading this plebeian novel? can someone explain the interest of the "le river stoic DEEP buddhist"?
I thought it was just bad superficial existentialism, the only good thing about this was the fluid envolving writing...

Non-ironically this. I tried reading Jerusalem without any reference whatsoever and it ranges from "You'll definitely need a notebook to draw schemes" to "What the ever loving fuck is going on".

Beautiful language though.
