If you don't want larping reactionary autists, religious nutjobs and race-obessed realists your remaining best options are Hans-Hermann Hoppe and Quran.

Don't read any books. Just ask provoking questions in quick succession to irritate people. Don't provide answers. You can ask questions from any angle you want without explaining why you're asking them. Ask a few questions they'd like to answer, then to turn it all around and dismantle their worldview with questions they can't answer. No one will know what position you hold and neither will you.

The laborers have the most enormous power in their hands, and, if they once became thoroughly conscious of it and used it, nothing would withstand them; they would only have to stop labor, regard the product of labor as theirs, and enjoy it. This is the sense of the labor disturbances which show themselves here and there.

The State rests on the — slavery of labor. If labor becomes free. the State is lost.

Those statistics are misledeading. Wealth describes assets and such but ignores income. If the average person would decrease his consumption the statistic would shift dramatically. The vast majority of money isn't directed by the wealthy, they're just unable to consume it.

If you defend a capitalist over workers while being a worker then what the fuck do you expect? It's like saying yeh its cool another dude fucks my wife. What fucking side on you on.

Hint: money is a belief token. If you could affect beliefs like those 'bosses' can, you would be rich. You can write numbers on a notepad, if you can make people believe they are worth anything, they will be.
