"Tricked into reading twice"??
Kafka for me. Fuck him, fuck everything he wrote, and fuck Max Brod for not doing his job.

Oscar Wilde. All my gay art friends who don't actually read gush over him.

Marx.

God.

>not liking based Wilde

Terrible choice, he was fucking hilarious. I'd go with Ayn Rand, to deprive a million libertarian spergs of their fap material.

You guys might not be on the same page...politically...

i know what you mean. that shit is hella annoying, its bc of all the plays he wrote. theater culture. but real talk though hes pretty good. 6/10 range. respectable stepping stone.

I've been shilling for Burroughs on here for years.

No regrets; my work has borne fruit.

I go with Karl Marx in order to save billions of lives across the planet

HITLER,,,,, OMG I SAVED EVRE1

But then what about gypsies?

Implying Communism wasn't just an ideological excuse for power and some other form of propaganda would not have arisen in place of Marx

Ginsberg

Howl was awful

Reddit would say Hitler and feel awfully clever about it

>I got tricked into reading twice.

You're a fucking idiot.

Nietzsche. Yeah, that's right. Fuck your feelings.

I would pick, OP.

His articles bitching about something he never had to read are a true confirmation he shouldn't have been born.

Perhaps if he'd only read the book once, critics such as myself could find reason to appreciate his mongoloid mouth breathing crybaby antics, but OP has stupidly and wrecklessly decided to read something he didn't like twice.

He was probably motivated by some belief that there's a magical spot in a book, where if the reader reads correctly the author activates some kind of holy orgasm of brilliant writing upon a person, as if a magic spell has enraptured the reader, filling them with the most profound emotion of recognizing brilliance. Many amatuer readers believe this myth.

Adam Smith

The Wealth of Nations is the most retarded thing i ever read.

Those make for legit interesting alternate history scenarios; how much of an impact did they leave vs the zeitgeist they appealed to?
