Sunday Morning Book Thread 11-11-2012: Progressive Revolutionary Progress [OregonMuse]
— Open Blogger

Translation: "Omelettes! I got your omelettes right here!"

Good morning, comrades.

OregonMuse Joins the Communist Party

Yes, it's true.

After Tuesday's shocking and disappointing results, I decided I'd had enough. Enough of the crappy leadership, enough of the faux conservative, sub-optimal (heh) candidates, and above all, enough of the continual losing, where every defeat is costly and every victory inconsequential.

Away with all that!

I now say, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. So I did. I'm now a out-and-proud (heh) member of the progressive left, and I fart in your general direction, you slack-jawed yokels.

So, what do I read now?

Well, first, I want my free stuff from the government. This is what being on the progressive left is all about, that is, government getting progressively more and more expansionistic and aggressive with tax dollars, and all that plunder has to get spent somewhere, so why not on me? I've found this guy, Matthew Lesko, who has written a large number of books on how you can play the 'gimme' game, notably Getting Yours: The Complete Guide to Government Money, so I think I'm going to just help myself. After all, it's not your money, it's the government's. They're just letting you hold on to it for a little while until they figure out what they need it for.

So gimme my free stuff, bitches!

And speaking of the government spending metric buttloads of money, I need to bow before the master himself, The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money. This dense book forms the premise of Obama's wildly successful stimulus package, and is endorsed by economic genius Paul Krugman

But before all this, I guess I should start off with some foundational texts, like Das Kapital. Get back to basics, and all that. But I hear the book is a long, slow slog of tedium, so I can probably make do with just The Communist Manifesto. I can have fun determining how much of this ~~evil crap~~ excuse me, I mean, how much of the glorious progressive revolutionary program has already been implemented here in America -- some of it by Republicans.

And I need to dispense with God, since there is no room for Him since the state is now God, and which tolerates worship at no other altar. Anything by Richard Dawkins will do, so I'll just stick with The God Delusion, which is the book that put him on the map.

Now that God has safely been banished, that means that I can do whatever the hell I want. And since I'm a male, this means all sex, all the time, with no restraints whatsoever. Woohoo! And not to worry, The Kinsey Report has my back on this. And I know it's true, because it's Science!

And Science also tells us that you righties in your tightie-whities are just a bunch of control freaks. This famous bookThe Authoritarian Personality (Studies in Prejudice) by Theodor Adorno is scientific proof. If you argue with this, you're obviously psychologically disordered.

Of course, even though I'm now a big time progressive, I will probably still have occasion to talk to you rubes on the right. SO I'll enlist the help of George Lakoff, Don't Think Of An Elephant!/ How Democrats And Progressives Can Win: Know Your Values And Frame The Debate: The Essential Guide For Progressives is my go-to guide. And this book may be helpful, too.

I've discovered that everything I learned about U.S. history is wrong, because I learned it from a bunch of dead heterosexual white guys. Instead, I should have been listening to The People. That's why we have Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States to set the record straight.

Oh, and I almost forgot Quotations from Chairman Mao, a truly progressive work. Because sometimes in order to establish perfect government, you have to kill tens of millions of people.

As even a dumb conservative can see, I've got a lot of reading to do to get up to speed on the left. So if any of you enemies of the people know of any progressive/revolutionary books I've missed, please let me know.

Progress!

Recommendations From Morons

None this week. And next week, this thread is going to look a lot different. In keeping with my new-found embrace of my inner commie thug, the Sunday morning book thread will be called 'The Little Red Thread', we will all address one another as 'comrade', and an ideologically pure party line will be rigidly enforced. The ban-hammer will be swinging wide and free. I'm going to make Cahlrse Jhnosno look like Pee-Wee Herman.

So that about wraps it up for this eventful week. As always, book thread tips and denouncing of enemies of the people may be sent to aoshqbookthread@gmail.com

So what have you all been reading this past week, comrades?

3 John Campbell, "Piracy Preferred", which I got for free on the Kindle (alongside some other short stories). Written in 1930; set in 2159 I think.

What it gets wrong about technology even as of 1999 is nothing short of hilarious. The major plot point is that someone is transferring bonds in paper, from point to point in a zeppelin. The zeppelin gets robbed in mid-flight by an aircraft.

It has no concept that money can be sent over the wires.

Also the book goes into raptures about air flight - this part is fun and interesting to read, I admit - except that actual humans living in this day and age take that shit for granted. Maybe if those descriptions were written by people who weren't seven years old on their first trip from des Moines to Orlando.

20 "Lenin Lived, Lenin Lives, Lenin Will Live"

That sounds very much like an echo of the old Christian memorial acclamation that goes: "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again."

22 Someone who obviously reads AoSHQ recommended "The Last Policeman" by Ben Winters in a thread over at NRO. It's apparently a detective story set in a pre-apocalyptic America that has discovered that the world is about to be destroyed by the SMOD in six months.

Has anyone read it. Would you recommend it?

Also, any other books to recommend while I try to decide between going Galt, expatriating, let it burn and burn it down?

Sent six charity donation forms back stating no donations because of Barack Obama. I'm not giving to the homeless Tday drive when Obama minions were out last week driving them to the polls. It's all me and my family all the time from here on in. Surely none of you are going to movies anytime soon? Starve the Hollywood beast.

25 Fuck all Commies! Lenin took it up the ass twice a week from Uncle Joe, who had Beria do him with a hammer-and-sickle shaped dildo. Castro used to go down on Kruchev and Breszhnev while Mao had his party hacks use the "great wall" dildo on him every Tuesday while Dungxia Ping watched. Communists, Socialists and Democrats.

Actually, I've gone back to basics. And by basics, I mean it. Reading the Bible, cover to cover. Right now I'm at Joshua. Also reading the Orestia by Aeschyles (sp?). Had started before the election, but looking at it now, seems fotuitous that I reading the building blocks of Western Civ, religious and secular, just as the cracks may be getting to big to patch.

42 Comrades! "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" is the delightful tale of a man who finds satisfaction in the little things in life- eating his meals, finishing his day's work, while in the service of our glorious state! I give it our highest recommendation- 5 hammers and sickles!

Posted by: naturalfake at November 11, 2012 07:47 AM (G9qZk)

I am listening to "The Little Red Guard" by Wenguang Huang in the car, appropriately enough. It's been interesting enough although it all takes place after the 10s of millions have been killed, so it's a bit of a let-down in that respect. And from the first half of the first disc, I like the Grandma a whole, whole lot: she immediately announces that she sees right through the Commie bullshit.

And I just started "Dangerous Instincts: How Gut Feelings Betray Us" about keeping oneself safe from making stupid decisions. Unfortunately, it's not about politics and required reading for leftists.

And on my Kindle I am reading "Mohammed and Charlemagne Revisited" about Henri Pirenne's theory that it was the Muslims who caused the dark ages, just like they want to cause it again. Very interesting stuff.

I was going to emphasize learning more about the Muslim Brotherhood, but now I'm thinking maybe I should go commie too, at least read "The Communist Manifesto" so I'm prepared to fake it when necessary so I can destroy from within or something. Such a dilemma.

Another one also told me, "there is a world wide socialist one world government coming. if you do not like it, get off the planet." he also added, "...you right wingers won't put up a fight...you will fall into line."

68 I'm currently reading Michael Z. Willliamson's Better to Beg Forgiveness, which is free at Baen's site. Excellent, enthalling, and I wouldn't be at all surprised if the author were one of us, because his protagonists (members of a contract EPD team) sure sound like a collection of us. Definitely politically incorrect, a science fiction political thriller with loads of guns, explosives, one big kidnapping attempt on the team's principal (so far), and extremely hard to put down.

78 I posted this a couple of days late in last week's Halloween thread. Cheers. RECOMMENDED KINDLE ZOMBIE BOOKS There is a lot of junk in the Kindle zombies section (even many of the "Best of" and "Top 10" lists are filled with (in my view) second-tier stuff). But there are some gems, too. All of the books in this list are at least good, and some are very good. They are listed in rough order of goodness. Flesh Eaters by Joe McKinney. A hurricane devastates Houston. From the flood waters emerge you-know-what. I re-read this as comfort food of sorts the day after the election. The action does not start on the first page, but stick with it. This is a good one. Also highly recommended is Joe McKinney's Dead City, a terrific, non-stop roller coaster ride of a book (where the action does start on the first page, and basically never lets up). Left with the Dead by Stephen Knight. A tough old soldier who is cut off from his company must survive in a zombie-infested NYC. This is a longish short story that builds to a powerful climax. It's a sequel to The Gathering Dead, which is also recommended (LWTD, the second book in this series, can easily be read as a stand-alone). Area 187 by Eric Lowther. Northern Virginia and environs have been quarantined to contain the zombie plague. Good yarn, good read. Mountain Man by Keith Blackmore. A moron-type hillbilly/redneck manages to survive the zombie apocalypse while staying (for the most part) massively drunk. Good yarn, good read. Wild Strawberry by T.A. Donnelly. Download the sample opening chapter of this book -- it's a great zombie set piece. The book features some action scenes that are absolutely *intense*. Trailer Park Zombies by Jason H. Jones. The first chapter or two, and the ending feel a bit off-key, but this book mostly kicks ass. A fun ride, with some great zombie action. [As I post this, TPZ is not currently being sold in Kindle format, only paperback; I suspect the Kindle version will reappear eventually.] Lou vs. the Zombies by Jason Tucker. When I stumbled across this, I thought the premise sounded a little too cute. But it's a fun short story that delivers the zombie goods. Dead of Night by Jonathan Maberry. The energy seems to fade a bit in the second half of this book, but the first half (maybe the first two-thirds) rocks. Monster Island by David Wellington. Has a couple of very cool, fresh zombie ideas (at least, I hadn't seen them before). At the end the story takes a turn that I didn't really like, but the book mostly rocks. The Enemy by Charlie Higson. This is a young adult novel. Zombie-like creatures take over London. The only survivors are children and adolescents, who form into groups to survive, with attendant power struggles. Enjoyable, satisfying story.

Posted by: TheQuietMan at November 11, 2012 08:28 AM (XxXUI)

Ya know, the actual Soviet propaganda billboards and posters, still prevalent when I spent time in the worker's paradise in the 70s and 80s, did frequently feature "Forward!" ("fpyer-YOAD!") as a slogan. Often with the image of Lenin pointing to the distance, looking stern and resolute. Many statues the same (minus the slogan, of course).

Those without the Sovietologist background might not have fully appreciated - as in, not have been as devastated, and left in slack-jawed disgust and disbelief - when the idiot president's poster in 2008 used "socialist realism" style elements (the one with the pastel tones depicting The One's visage). Unbelievable. Of course my (politically) cretinous sister had this taped inside the back window of her car. And now, this time, "Forward!". I've been mostly speechless for years, but this one probably explains itself. Wow.

102 Just finished Spain Betrayed, by Ron Radosh, Mary Haybeck, and Grigory Sevostianov. I've avoided reading much about the Spanish Civil War because it has been so thoroughly romanticized and mythologized by the progs. This book is not so much a history of the war as it is a document dump, with analysis, of reports back to the Kremlin from Soviet operatives and agents in Spain.

It makes it clear that the USSR had infiltrated and dominated the Spanish Republican government, internal and military security services, and the military. It also makes clear that the Soviets intended for Spain to become the first Soviet satellite state, nearly a decade before they managed to grab Eastern Europe and subject them to their special brand of hell.

I will never defend Franco and his brand of fascism, but this book confirms my suspicion that, if not the best side, the least worst side won that war.

105 For research, I've been reading "The Opium Wars" (Hanes and Sanello) which has been unexpectedly hilarious. See, one author is a professor and the other is a journalist, and they obviously can't cope with the cognitive dissonance of the subject matter. Great Britain is Western and is therefore evil (and pushing opium, which I agree was morally shady). However the Quing empire of China is pretty much doing all of the War on Drugs stuff we're doing, verbatim, and their little liberal minds are straining mightily to still make the Chinese the good guys. Plus there is lots and lots of evidence that cheap drugs actually made things worse (hmm, maybe legalization won't help!) and as the British fight their way inland they keep finding dead Chinese soldiers with their opium pipes still stuck in their mouths.

Then for fun read Correia's Dead Six, and more Churchill. Need to get out the Ouija board and ask Winnie's advice on the current situation, which roughly approximates post-Dunkirk...

Yes, that's what I'm planning to do too - reading the Classics of Western Civ before it's decided that those old books written by Dead White Males are counterproductive in our Brave New World and might give people ideas.

Oh, and a great guide to Western Civ is Jacques Barzun's "From Dawn to Decadence: 1500 to the Present, 500 Years of Western Cultural Life." Barzun died earlier this month at the age of 104. He came here from his native France to study when he was still in his teens and stayed. "Dawn to Decadence" was written when he was in his 90's. The last article he published, earlier this year, was an op-ed pieced for the WSJ praising the military and urging Columbia (where he taught for over 50 years) to reestablish ROTC on campus. (Barzun considered himself fully American, but I have noticed that the rare frog who gets it right really nails it - Barzun, Veronique de Rugy, Bastiat, de Tocqueville, and the authors of "The Black Book of Communism.")

Barzun was fully aware that we were headed down the toliet. The last chapters of "Dawn to Decadence" perfectly discribe the cultural sickness of the West. Barzun described himself as a "cheerful pessimist" - he thought he would crash and burn, but that the West would rediscover its' ideals.

Was he right? We'll find out.

Lurker uncloaking.

Just finished The Power Makers: Steam, Electricity, and the Men Who Invented Modern America, by Maury Klein.

Now switching off between Albion's Seed: Four British Folkways in America, by David Hackett Fisher, and Black Rednecks and White Liberals, by Thomas Sowell.

Fisher describes the cultures brought by the four great British migrations to America: Puritans (1629-1640), Southern planters (1642-1675), Quakers (1675-1725), and Scots-Irish (1718-1775). "[They had] four different conceptions of order, power, and freedom which ... has created an expansive pluralism which is more libertarian than any unitary culture alone could be. That is the central thesis of this book: the legacy of four British folkways in early America remains the most powerful determinant of a voluntary society in the United States today."

Sowell says that modern American black people picked up some bad qualities from the Scots-Irish. I'd like to hear him and Sen. Jim Webb debate the point, Marine to Marine.

127 "Fatal Purity: Robespierre and the French Revolution" by Ruth Scurr (MacMillan, 2007), well written. Especially interesting are the parts about his attempts at changing popular culture and replacing traditional religion with revolutionary "religion" --- not called so by him, of course. The details of in-fighting among the winners and the resulting Terror are fun too. And let's not forget the Happy Ending: with his jaw half-shot off and tied onto his head with a rag, Ol' Robie was dragged off to meet La Belle Guillotine.

"Under a Cruel Star: A Life in Prague 1941-1968" by Hedda Margolius Kovaly (Plunkett Lake Press, Cambridge MA, 1986). A Jew who miraculously escaped from a death march from a concentration camp at the very end of the war, she and her husband bought the Kool-aid of Communism, him even taking a job in the government of Czechoslovakia. Watch their initial disbelief as their eyes open to the true state of affairs. No Happy Ending.

I checked out from the library two books from Boorstin's series on America. I had to return them before finishing them, but I did have some minor quibbles about a few things that he said in those.

I completely agree with the Moron who said Koestler's Darkness at Noon is the definitive book about Communism. Ghost in a Machine by him isn't too bad either.

For a history of Marxism and Communism To the Finland Station by Edmund Wilson is a good read. Starts with the origins of the philosophy in post-Revolution France and how it evolved.

The Black Book of Communism is another good read.
