Why haven't you yet read The Gulag Archipelago?

Whatever.

It's long and boring and gay

Because i have more relevant books on my reading list right now.

It wasn't real communism

I did

It was ok

It wasn't life changing though


Hey Dr. Peterson, why hasn't 200 Years Together ever been translated and made available in the West?

I cleaned my room and can't remember where I put it.

Because I read One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and I think I got Solzhenitsyn's point from that

That gulag life is comfy?

I love that book.

Nah GA is better but it gets slow near the end of the first book. Ive only half done but fuck it is like 100s and 100s of pages. Still worth it though from what I have already read. Russian writers can challenge you in ways others cannot. There are few better writers than Dostoevsky, Tolstoy or Solzhenitsyn.

Eh, i mean it certainly better on sheer literary level alone, but so far as to being challenging it's just "And Then Everything Got Worse" over and over again. You eventually become desensitized to it.

I don't care about the camps or how many gorillion commies killed. I'm just as opposed to peaceful socialism as I am to violent socialism.

Multiculti Jewish commies took over the West without camps or mass executions and it's just as bad this way.
