Status Updates From Massenpsychologie und Ich-A...

I will judge people who like this book. You should too. If someone is like "this is my favorite book", do not trust their taste. They are probably a bad person.

In the last chapter, he explained how education makes a person dumb and doesn't like groups of people, yet he wrote a book trying to explain the behaviors of crowds, poorly and mostly incorrectly.

This book is just so sexist and racist. I feel like I'm on the wrong side of the Internet or something.

This is a really rough read. It's just ongoing ramblings of a man who cannot tell the difference between subjective, biased opinions and actual facts. I realize this was written quite some time ago, but it is dripping with misogyny and it's been quite a slog of old, prejudiced, outdated, and often unproven points of group psychology. At some points it's like an alien describing what human sociology is.

maybe i'll finish it tmr and be free
