I’m gonna give you The Big Enchilada now.
Make up a list of authors. Let’s say you wanna demolish Communism. You won’t have to read the authors. You’ll pick a list that contains Marxists and the best Anti-Marxists, to gain deep thorough knowledge of the subject. Example:
>Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao Zedong, Lukács, Gramsci, Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse, Leszek Kolakowski, James H. Billington, , Eric Voegelin, , Ludwig von Mises, John Taylor Gatto Roger Scruton, Nicolai Berdiaev, Anatoly Golitsyn, Christopher Andrew, Diana West, Whittaker Chambers, David Horowitz, Alexander Solzhenitsyn
Now go on libgen.is. Download every PDF (or .docx or .txt or .epub files) from the author you’re gonna read. Make sure the PDF is readable. If it’s one of those shitty scanned PDF’s, use a service like Abbyy Fine Reader or Adobe Acrobat and use the OCR tools to turn it into readable. rutracker is your friend, don’t give them money.

Now about the reading part. Sign up for Claude.AI. It’s 20 bucks a month. but it can also read documents of over 200k characters.
Now drop the whole book into the AI, and on the instructions instruct it to read the whole book, and summarize the main points/arguments into a comprehensive tik-tok/fast-food/easy to digest/debate-usable/quick witted/debate demolisher/argument style int bullet points.
The AI is gonna do the dirty work of literally giving you the important parts of the book. I’ve done it with books I’ve read, and it does a great job. It works. The AI is not lazy. You can ask the AI to expand or summarize even more.
Now you can LARP as someone who has “read” the whole of Marxism. You can cite the events, what the book talks about, and you’ll come off as someone who’s more well versed in Communism than every stupid commie out there.
>free options
You can do the same with ChatGPT and other cucked free services, but keep in mind it takes longer, you’ll have to do it on a 3-paragraph or something basis. Claude reads the whole thing.
