>he bought a pozzed edition of Ovid that fucking talks about whether Ovid should remain in the Classics curriculum at all because some of his tales involve rape
>he bought the gender neutral NRSV bible instead of Norton's 2-volume critical edition of the KJV, superior both in terms of scholarship and poetry

So I just listened to 2.5 hours of audiobook on 1.25x speed today, that translates into roughly 100 pages

Imagine ever going back to using your eyes to read when your ear can process information so much faster

lmao identity politics was the best thing that happened to the left in its history, I'd hazard an assumption that it was more destructive than McCarthyism. Marx said that worldwide proletarian solidarity would be possible only after all other conflicts (national, racial, religious etc.) have been resolved. of course there are some people on the left that are getting tired of IdPol but they quickly get cancelled for saying some stupid thing like trannies suck or smth (Mark Fisher is a case in point). and even if they weren't cancelled they'd still have to uphold some degree of IdPol despite their apparent opposition to it for a very simple reason - in 2020 some degree of IdPol IS leftism. people talk about how the Frankfurt School was a ploy to subvert Western values but an even bigger and much more successful operation was infecting the left with Identity Politics. it's quite clear now that men are getting tired of the gynocentrist feminist culture, white people are getting tired of blacks getting killed even though they apparently "dindu nuffin", European people are getting tired of the influx of Muslim migrants to Germany, Sweden and France. the possibilities for a global proletarian solidarity are meeker than ever and as a right winger I can't help but laugh

>he's tidying up his Stata code right now
are you really doing this? anon, econometrics is social science statistical computation…i'm glad you're excited about your field even if it sucks megaballs but this is not pure math by a long shot—it is…run by some programs. i will grant you that econ makes some use of like, lagrangian multipliers and some multivar calc shit but it isn't math and it isn't necessarily rigorous because you have to import a fuck ton of assumptions wrt human behavior and best-outcomes. love it for what it is (retarded) and accept it for what it's not (math).

>I refuse to believe it.
Feels over Reals ???

why do you spend all day reading books when you don’t actually put theory created by your values into practice? Just so you can be ineffectual and be a better contrarian when arguing with other incels on reddit and Twitter?

Join or form a political party or blog/newsletter that supports what you believe and influence culture form there.

You won’t though because you’re a pussy dicklet bitch who doesn’t actually believe anything and just wants to have the most different opinion in the room and you will blame your lack of accomplishments on your “social anxiety” and “feminism”. There are guys who haven’t graduated from college and only read Harry Potter novels who have influenced far more in the world than you incel retard
