Hello friends, I am going to be living the life of a NEET for

Evola - 'Ride the Tiger'
Schopenhauer - 'On Women'
Luther - 'On the Jews an their Lies'

You know you will spend it doing nothing.

Just masturbate, play video games and watch stupid shit online. Be realistic about how you're going to spend that time, so you don't end up disappointed or bitter.

If you had any interest in this stuff, you would already know where to start. You don't need to be a NEET to know about politics and philosophy.

Well I've wasted the last 8 months of my life with that shit + smoking weed so I'm trying to turn over a new leaf. Also I live with the parents now, one of whom works from home who will surely beat me if I go back to playing videogames all day

>any opinions as to where I should start
yeah, the Greeks
>and where I should go from there
the Romans

Okay, which Greeks and Romans, though? I imagine some of it is not worth reading

If you were curious at all about this stuff, you would just dive into it headfirst. There's no reason to ask us what you should be reading.

Thanks for this!

There's a very good reason; namely that many philosophical and political works build on and make reference to their predecessors.

Right... so... Start at the beginning?
Just fuck off, you waste of space. Go suck your dad's dick and be a loser some more. Stop pretending you're going to emerge from your cum-stinking bedroom like an erudite god of philosophy. Just stop it, please. It's embarrassing. Threads like these get made a dozen times a day.

I did the whole "I'm gonna be neet for 6 months" thing.
Here I am 6 fucking years later.
I'm not even old. I'm still young! People around me tell me I have time but I know that's a lie! I thought I wanted this.
Don't go neet, you'll never escape.

>Start with the Greeks!!!!

Do not fall for it, they are trying to troll you, you will end up with twenty different dualistic monkeys on your back, erroneous substance-property and spirit-matter distinctions, nonsensical abstract thought experiments and misunderstandings of how language works, and you will end up word-vomitting about things like "qualia" and "prescriptive ethics".

Start with the Chinese.

Sounds like solid advice.
