>When does it get blackpilling?
when you stop and reflect on your own desperate and pointless hopes, dreams, and aspirations. when you realize the "meaning" you've found is simply a cope. that is the refined essence of all blackpills.

yes but I already believed this before reading it. Humans are basically coping insects- "Gods who shit".

I started with his first non-romanian work which is A Short History of Decay. Sample attached (the reason I started reading him).
If you enjoy the sample, it's just did like this essay for 200 pages. he was a fascist when very young and then rejected it, so the book is focused a lot of the pointlessness of ideology and people who are politicized.
I don't want to overhype it but it's my favorite thing I've read in years
