Thanks m8, I'll have to look into that.

Just finished up Antifragile by Nassim Taleb.

Oh, well, if you're a counter-revolutionary, then perhaps you won't like Locke. He laid the philosophical groundwork for English and American republicanism. Still, Two Treatises is an explicit refutation of Patriarcha which is on your pic related, so it might still be of interest.

Maybe Leviathan by Thomas Hobbes would be more your thing. He advocates absolute monarchy.

Are you looking for a genre or viewpoint in particular?

finished Storm of Steel. Currently reading the Sailor Who Fell From Grace of the Sea by Mishima. it was that or Notes from the Underground

The Diceman is my favourite novel. I finished reading it a second time recently. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Also about to finish "Time and time again" by Ben Elton. It's a good story. Enjoyable. Going to send a copy to my friend who's very into WW1 history, but otherwise I wouldn't say it's a must read.

Not really, I am pretty wide open to just about anything. Again, I appreciate the response.

Red Platoon

Just finished Excession by Iain Banks, now working on The Garden of Priapus by Alfred Jarry. Kind of lost, like when i tried the Satyricon.

The Turner Diaries

Reading Gai-jin by Clavell at the moment. I really love the way he writes, Shogun is my all time favorite, Tai Pan was pretty gud too.

I was justa a bitch ass kid when i read Rat King, like 13 I think, i should reread as I feel like I might have been a bit too young to really appreciate it, though I recall loving it.

The whole Asia saga makes me realize what a disgusting fucking pile of shit modern japan is compared to what it used, Hate weaboos and anime with a passion.

Friend of mine was reading that recently and said that it consisted largely of rather obvious observations, and that the book seemed to fulfill the function of establishing Taleb as the guy who coined/popularised the term "antifragility"
