What's the most controversial book you've actually read?

Probably the Turner Diaries. Have you heard of it?

>>24671916 (OP)
A girl's diary during middle school, at her birthday party in her house.

>>24671947

black flag album art style lol

>>24671916 (OP)
Besides the Bible, definitely this one, but I haven't read Mein Kampf or Turner Diaries.

>>24671999
>this one

>>24671993
well i mean the book was basically published in a cave using a hand cranked mimeograph

>>24671916 (OP)
TD has huge name recognition but seriously it is routine for that genre

>>24672447
I too have large archives of shit i haven't read.

>he downloaded the honeypot book
Ngmi

>>24671916 (OP)
my own book because I lost my job for sharing it

I don't know what books I've read are controversial because I never talk to anyone. Maybe it's because the books are too controversial.

I have not read this juvenile racist power fantasy. The most controversial book I have read is the Koran.

It defines my way of life and I am memorizing it from cover to cover in its original language.

>>24672756
>learn to skim

>>24673418
skimming isn't reading

Probably Lolita.
I've also read Harry Potter, which I think may have a 'larger' controversy but only because it is more well known.
I like Kipling a lot too and he as an author is now very controversial while also probably the most acclaimed of the three.

>Messages to the World: the Statements of Osama bin Laden
>Speeches of Adolf Hitler, April 1922-August 1939
>Hitler: Speeches and Proclamations 1932–1945
>Fascism: Doctrine and Institutions
>Mein Kampf
>Reflections on Violence
I just find Nazism, fascism, and religious extremism to be incredibly interesting. I'm not a Nazi, a fascist, or a religious extremist.

>>24673625
Is Lolita even controversial anymore. Middle school book bans in the florida panhandle don't count.

>>24671999
Mein Kampf isn't really controversial. I had to read a few chapters of it for a class in college.

>>24671916 (OP)
I don't think TD qualifies since 99% of the normie world thinks its racist trash. Infinite Jest seems controversial in that half of readers think it is genius and the other half either want to cancel DFW for being a white male or think it was stupid.

>>24673796
Lolita becomes more controversial every year because of women who read tons of smut and then judge Lolita based on the wikipediasynopsis.

For My Legionaires - Corneliu Zelea Codreanu

The Turner Diaries was boring. Nothing but juvenile wish fulfillment.
>>24673796
Seriously. They've made two movies based on it.

>>24673818
Like Moms for liberty or whatever.

>>24672447
What're you usin generate that? Some kind Calibre cli tool?

I've read a lot of stuff from Loompanics and Paladin Press, so IDK

The Holy Bible. The Thirty Years War killed 2.8 times as much of the German population as both World Wars combined. The Huguenot War in France killed 14 times as many as the devastating First World War. The First Crusade killed an astounding 66-80% of the belligerents on the winning side (by contrast, most soldiers on the Eastern Front survived the war) and depopulated the affected regions.

The Koran is a close second.

>>24674871
XD

>>24674599
Manually cataloging? Based and masochistic.

>>24674871
Killing more Germans for the cause of jews instead of the cause of preventing jews is pretty fucking retarded.

>>24671916 (OP)
Lots of normies in hurrr. Programmed to Kill is a classic. The Anarchists Cookbook was widely circulated but overrated. Some old medical textbooks have pretty detailed instructions about poisons and real pictures of dead people in various states of malady. The Lesser Key of Solomon and Legemeton are pretty edgy and barely off the beaten path. The Naked Lunch is one of my favorites and anyone who doesnt find it controversial is jaded beyond comprehension.

>>24674999
that's like an alt-boomer checklist lol

>>24673648
>>Messages to the World: the Statements of Osama bin Laden

I would read this.

>>24671993
some black flag albums are practically novels

>>24673273
How is the Koran controversial? It's one of the most common books in the world.

>>24673648
Reflections on Violence is kino.

Curtis Yarvin's blog collection book when I was still into his stuff, if that counts

>>24671945
If you've actually read the entirety of the Talmud that's fairly impressive commitment.

>>24672789
share it again

>>24671916 (OP)
Ars Goetia. It's controversial to orthodox and heterodox people so its especially inflammatory. Never met anybody without a strong, negative opinion of it but it interesting.

>>24675764
1'8oo,ooo 14yo Yeshiva students do it every year.

>>24673818
Respectable ladies read their novels. It isn't smut. I mean, it totally is. That's why they need to properly raise a fuss over indecency. Your average furry is less kinky than your Aunt and cousin choosing a book to read.

>>24675750
koran is a pile of poop
has inspired generations of sand monkeys
to go out and kill people
but no it is not "controversial"
>go fuck the goats achmed

The "Turner Diaries" is a poorly written novel from the 1970s that is notable only because it provoked a wave of domestic terrorism in the United States in the 1980s and 1990s.

The publication of "The Turner Diaries" set in motion a chain of events that lead to the formation of The Order, caused Rudy Ridge and the Waco siege and then provoked Timothy McVeigh to commit the Oklahoma City Bombing.

Consequently, this book is notable and will be obviously be of interest to future historians who want to understand the causes of these events.

In the year 2025, the overwhelming majority of the people who post this book online are libertarian-type people who despite censorship.

AMA.

why is 'ebooks' its own category? have you really read 324 books on boardgames?

>>24675953
Fair enough, I suppose I was under the assumption it was read recreationally.

>>24671916 (OP)
You can't even log this book on Goodreads. How dissapointing

>>24677207
sounds like a fun time
