Unironically my diary desu. It's the only way I can order my thoughts and at least develop something resembling a style without feeling weird. No you may not read it. It's trash and for my eyes only.

Plato's very comfy and if you can follow a conversation you can understand him. He also translates well.

Nice toe thumb

Whoops.

Lit didn't ruin your life. Your own retardation did.

Ah well sweetie, it was bound to happen eventually.

I really want this to be true.

A blatant racist that called for the

>slaughter of whites
>the eventual return to Africa

all while propagating his cult

today he's a hero against the Man(TM)

black people can't be racist

It's not meant to be edgy

He was writing against Christianity and to a lesser extent Buddhism

Did you read Will to Power or did you take that quote out of context?

Not really digging the Nazi vibe im getting off this book tbwh

>>9651849
Nietzsche also wrote at length against anti-Semites. The Nazis took parts of his philosophy that they liked and used it to their own ends.

I read the Melancholy of Resistance and Satantango while I was bumming around the world on the skin of my teeth. I wouldn't bring any books unless you're going to start in Africa, most major cities have a bookstore that will cater to your language and I'd recommend going in not knowing what you want. Every time I think I'll enjoy a book while traveling, it never matches my mood, but I always find the right books when I don't know what I'm looking for (while traveling).

there's nothing to reconcile, slave morality is for the slaves, master morality is for the ruling class, it's perfectly normal and natural to have both

>>9651624
"master morality" is a code word for being a little bitch that doesn't want to play by the rules. Nietzsche was huge faggot in that regard. He was a weak willed man with no redeeming qualities. Somebody so autistic he resented the fact that he was a German and the son of a priest. I mean he ate so much fruit he shat himself and went mad over looking at a fucking horse.

you're a pleb and that's exactly what plebs are supposed to say...oh it's not fair, trump didn't play by the rules, he went outside of the standard political system, oh clinton is so corrupt it's not fair, oh bill gates he's so mean to linux it's not fair, oh steve jobs he's such a dick he like stole the idea of the mouse from some suits at xerox, not fair at all!!!!1one

stay mad, nerd

Honestly, I'm very intimidated to attempt to read this book. Joseph Campbell himself even had to make a book dedicated entirely to understanding what the fuck was going on, I never realized how full of depth Finnegans Wake is.

>>9651529
>he doesn't appreciate puns and mythology
Finnegans Wake is very difficult but the fact that you actually went ahead and made this thread instead of just picking up one of the several Finnegans Wake readers (hell, http://finwake.com is a good place to start) shows that you're a insecure manlet.

>>9651631

Not OP, but thanks bruv. Finnegans Wake is on my must read list, but that link is very helpful. I'll try and start reading and trying to comprehend things with the held of these guides.

>Unreadable shit

Using made up adjectives and nouns to set a scene with telling what they actually mean in the first place. This is literally like reading the illegible shit smears of a mad mans padded cell.

Honestly the Silmarillion was great
But I've tried the Unfinished Tales, and if you want something unreadable, go this way

Proof is redundant to Idealism.

>>9651078
Sell me on idealism. Why would I conclude idealism over materialism.
