Yeah. The main event shines so brightly that you can't really look at the events around it, but here you have the whole picture. And it's messed up. You look at the chapters and wonder "when do we get to the flavour aid" but then Jones pulls some new shit and you are like "dude come on really?" and then you get to the end and you are like "yeah okay I get it". For instance everyone knows he made a test run in his church and then did it for real in Jonestown, but there are still a lot of holes and leaps in the narrative. How did we get to that point? What lead up to the FBI recording? You might for example imagine him as super charismatic and his followers super brainwashed, but that's not really the case.
It's like knowing Scientology is sketchy but then you read something like Going Clear (which I also enjoyed reading), and you are like "oh what".

C'mon. You know better than this.

But I don't really know why Hillary was the democratic candidate when you had based Bernie on their side. I think they would've won if Bernie was the candidate. Hillary is too patronising as were her followers and she didn't even fucking bother acknowledging half of the country.

Nah, he's a traitor. It's telling that he's the only Republican that leftists don't completely hate. I think Sanders had potential, especially since ardent Hillaryfags were like nonexistent and Bernie would have split the white Millennial vote, but it was Her Turn(tm). Shame, since Bernie versus Trump would have actually been a difficult choice.

I'm not the person who recommended it, but I liked it. It's a quick read and if you don't have to go out of your way to get your hands on a copy I'd give it a shot if I were you.

It's a story about self actualization and 1970s spirituality as told through the lens of a seagull who wants to improve his flying skills instead of focusing on fighting over food with the rest of his flock.

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but it seems to be the most appropriate one to ask this question in; there is a book about literary theory and criticism, written conjointly by two authors.

If anyone could point be to the name of the book, I would be very, very happy and grateful.

I haven't watched the documentary, exactly because I read that it did just that. And I found it very enjoyable. However I just took other people's word for it. I'm interested in watching it if you can wait a bit, and then give you a short comparison.

>>9952144
Right out of the gate, I think it's a good documentary. I'm only around 40 minutes in, but I like it. What I have noticed however is that a lot is missing. It's two hours, of course some will be left out, and they kept the most important that doesn't overcomplicate matters. It's a good documentary, however I say if you like the topic I'd invest in the book. I really would.

Guys, sorry to hijack the thread for a sec, but I didn't think this was worth a new thread.

I've made the mistake of doing nothing but playing video games for my teenage/young adult life. I need to change as a person. I need a book that's going to mould my personality into something more polished and more sociable/morally straight .

Books like starship troopers, 1984, brave new world etc are cool, but not what I'm looking for. I need books that I can extract personality / life lessons from.

Thanks in advance guys

(polite sage)

you´re searching for "self-help" books.
come back for philosophy when you´re done reading them.
>>
>>9965870
Philosophy is probably the right choice. People say start with the greeks but you honestly don't have to.
You can try Thus Spoke Zarathustra by Nietzsche
If that's no good, or too hard, Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk has been motivating for a lot of people and is an easy read.
I am trying to pick easy reads for beginners here. It's hard to push through though. In any case, expect to take several years to change.
>>
>>9968407
A lot of it is, yeah. You're not really supposed to read it cover-to-cover. Of course you don't want to read endless genealogy or Jewish law. Just skim along and try different books from it - there's law, history, myth, poetry, prophecy, etc., you should be able to find something you can read. With emphasis on poetry, I suggest King James Version. Most newer translations are a rape of the language.

>>9965870
Forget "self-help", forget anti-depressants and anxiety medicine. Lack of dopamine release is likely due to cultural aspects of the present age, conformity of urban society which humans really aren't designed to fit, and the spiritual void the dying institution of religion left behind.

Reading philosophy will slowly increase your intelligence, and make clear the causality language has with self-awareness. So tighten your butthole and persevere through the diction, because it's good for you and it builds character.
