none for several reasons, for starters because as an individual, unless you have millions of dollars or euros and some would say billions, you cannot have an impact in the politics of your country, secondly, reading political theory doesnt enable you to make more money or have the technical background to contribute to society, its something that i would try to put off for as long as possible, lastly, political theory prescribes a model for society in which many people disagree with you, it is different from say drug research, in which both the political right and the left embrace new treatments for cancer or new solutions for problems in engineering.

Nonetheless i would still like to get recs from right wing authors, just to see if im missing something or if im wrong, because i do swing closer to the left.

off the top of my head i can name some right wing authors, Carl Schmitt, Yukio mishima, hitler

the way i see it, the left emphasizes human dignity and extends empathy to all, but it can be a bit innocent or foolish, for instance when they say you should abolish ICE or that religious fundamentalists can integrate in socities that are tolerant of gay people, some people say the left is about abolishing hierarchies, i honestly struggle to see the virtues of right wing discourse outside of the idea of fighting for the well being of your country

Political ideology isn’t based on what you’ve read or theory. Its based on your culture, ethos, and moral compass.

You’re making the argument that since you’re unfamiliar or unread with some arbitrary authority then you beliefs are invalid.. which is the epitome of childish naivety.

A large amount. A large amount of art history and philosophy as well. I also try to stay up to date on all three as much as I can. But reading everything by a single author is retarded. Take Marx, for instance; communist manifesto is a pretentious but concise book written by a platitudenous jackass, yet Capital is the same shit at length wil somehow even less content.

Because you've fallen for the most basic grift in the world: the only knowledge worth knowing is that which can be monetized. Political theory when applied correctly is an infinitely scalable, universally applicable system of organization, accountability, and relationship management with built in heuristics for evaluation. Without knowledge of the subject, you cannot meaningfully engage with the content, and that happens to be the fundamental democratic concentric organization of every single system you interact with. Since you dont understand these systems, you cant identify areas of friction, you lack the words to organize your thoughts to articulate the problems you experience, and the fundamental understanding of how to enact any sort of change whatsoever.

This is why you're complaining about jewish mitosis. Because the volume of people who dont understand politics is so fast in the electorate, that the representational aspect is more about cheerleading than specific policies, ethics, and accountability. And judging by your post talking about ICE, your grasp is so poor you dont even understand the basics of either group. You have the same infered post-modern pastiche of every midwit who feels entitled to an opinion, but has no desire to learn about the subject to the extent that your opiniom should matter.

its not just about the money, if you dont learn biology, physics or chemistry how can you hope to find treatments for illnesses, find cleaner sources of energy or solve problems in computer science which would in turn make drug research more productive, i think what you said is very vague, either way im harmless because i dont plan on voting from now on, and the average voter has never opened a book of political science in their lives, what you said is vague, are you trying to say that learning political science would enable you to run a business more smoothly, because if thats the case, figuring out how to run an organization without reading pol sci is easier than figuring out calculus and linear algebra on your own, thats your opportunity cost

It is either nothing or everything. All in between is muddied water. If you cannot form a coherent ideology without using names and labels, groups and historical figures you are not there yet.

Some but not much. You don't have to read volumes of books when real world consequences can be observed. If you read marx/engels you will go through thousands of pages describing utopic solutions to problems that exist in capitalism. The reality of the situation is nobody will ever try marxism because anyone spearheading a revolution is going to want a reward (higher standard of living) than the retards they say they are fighting the revolution to help, so you end up with marxist-lenninists who have a core group of (jewish) professional revolutionaries who become the new nobility. Capitalism/libertarianism are just as dumb, just as marxists are naive and believe everyone will be equal, libertarians are naive because they believe everyone is a rational actor and by participating in a free market everyone can benefit and prosper, when the reality is you end up with monopolies and corporate oppression/exploitation rather than state sponsored oppression.

The only correct answer is National Socialism.

Cementing yourself into any structure only serves to blind your awareness since life is fluid and ever evolving. What is true today may not be so absolute tomorrow.
