Okay Anon, hope your day is going well. I'll suggest some stuff that changed my worldview. it involves a mix of books that are considered brainlet and midwit stuff, along with more traditional Lit stuff.

Disparities and Discrimination - Thomas Sowell
The autobiography of Malcolm X
Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu
Bowling Alone - Robert Putnam
Sapiens - Yuval Noah Harari (This is the midwit suggestions)
The Coming of the Third Reich - Richard J. Evans

All of these (except Lao Tzu) are varied views on typical Pol talking points. It's not blind decrying of what they are saying or claiming,

Pick up anything that inspires a sense of beauty, a desire to know more. Once you stop digging into morbid esoteric crypto-fascist conspiracy schizoid fantasy, you're free to find a path of enjoying existence.
Reading Descartes is a good start, then any philosopher that you feel you can connect with. The brainrot will keep shedding every time you engage in good aesthetic and intellectual experience.

The Bible can absolutely deprogram you from /pol/ if you are serious about what it teaches. You might remain very ‘politically incorrect’ in some matters, but you would be less obsessed with race, more concerned with the poor, loving your neighbor, loving God, etc. Basically everything /pol/ hates Christianity for

And all of /pol/ calls for the death of blacks, Jews and other groups all day and says that they are ‘subhumans’, and worships Hitler like an idol. The only time Jesus is mentioned is to mention him whipping Jews in the Temple. Let’s not forget that /pol/ is also full of people who say that only White people are ‘Adamites’ and that other races are ‘beasts of the field’—they aren’t Christian at all. Tell me next time you see /pol/ threads about helping poor people, loving your neighbor, getting closer to God, and all of that.

>And all of /pol/ calls for the death of blacks
Not really, when /pol/ uses "nigger" it's not about blacks in general but about a specific group of people who are usually black but not necesarilly. The vast majority of /pol/ is perfectly fine with good natured blacks.
>Jews
They want them out of Western countries for good reasons.
>Tell me next time you see /pol/ threads about helping poor people, loving your neighbor, getting closer to God, and all of that.
Saw plenty of them. You just don't understand how to navigate /pol/ and fall for baits and trolls. Many OPs are baits, but within the thread and most people are just normal males, often religious, who want to protect their families and country from jews.

beauty is cope for reality.
not OP but the sense of beauty has done nothing but entrap me, entrap me in in narcissism and depression.
when you seek to feel beauty, anything can be made beautiful, even your own mental world, your own suffering.
i don't like it anymore, it twists and contorts life until all that's left is an aching, and painful beauty.
I want out of all this.

The Bible deprogrammed me hard. I’m not ignorant of the things I knew before. I just have a much healthier perspective, one based on spirituality rather than resentment.
