Date: November 9th, 2026 12:35 PM Author: Daft Unc I never read Proust, always seemed very lame to me. Ulysses I read only so I could say I read it. You'll be fine if you skip a few of these. The list in general contains actual literature by actual literate authors which is more than many such lists. (https://autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5920634&forum_id=2#50245342) |

to understand modern mass governance / population management, you should be familiar with the Italian elite theorists (Burnham's The Machiavellians is a good review), the Jewish mind managers like Bernays and Lippmann, as well as Hitler and Goebbels, who all basically came to the same conclusions. maybe also read Schmitt and Popper who say the same thing but from opposite camps
for econ, you should be familiar with smith, marx, keynes, the austrians, as well as the "american system" of development (i.e. state support) which every advanced economy has followed in practice
other important concepts include complexity / path dependence / unintended consequences / Chesterton's fence type stuff. you can get that from Darwin and De Tocqueville and von Humboldt classically, or more recently from people like Hayek.
less important and more esoteric, IMO, is epistemology & computation type debates. broadly speaking you have people like Kant and Chomsky on one side, and Locke and Hume and Shannon and deep learning on the other. |
