The Warlord's Reading list

anarchonomicon.com

Hey gang haven't been crossposting my stuff here as much recently, let me know if you'd like me do that more....

But I thought you guys would be interested in my latest mega-article project. (this one is literally book length)

For those of you that like "The Anarchonomicon Real Banned Books List"

I present "The Warlord's Reading List"

The idea is that its a curriculum for perspective warlord, revolutionaries, Militia Leaders, self defense forces, independent espionage agents, arms traffickers... All the interesting people, with the goal that heaven forbid chaos come to your country there is a pre-curated body of knowledge (with links) that you can quickly and efficiently develop a deep familiarity if not expertise through self directed study.

This this started as just a short list for myself, and then It slowly grew into its current 150+ entry, 22 category, 30,000 word, book length survey of the state of modern warfare complete with oppinions minireviews, and catgirls.

If you're interested in the theory of Marxist Guerilla warfare, Crypto-currency money laundering, special weapons and tacitcs, precision marksmanship and sniper warfare, nuclear weapons survival, effective leadership, operational art and the formation of general staffs, high and low tech logistics, prison economics, digital opsec, high speed mounted warfare, and forming your own blackmail networks... Reconsider you life priorities... But also check out my new booklist!

I would recommend some from the nrx and post nrx cannon. The NRx cannon starts off with Moldbug

  • An open letter to an open minded progressive by Mencius Moldbug. My introduction to the world of neoreaction, one can also read a gentle introduction to unquailfied reservations, patchwork on toher works by Moldbug aka Curtis Yarvin but an open letter is perhaps his most influential work. He reads a lot so recommends a ton of books from other writers, including prominent reactionary ones
  • Xenosystems by Nick Land. Nick Land also wrote fanged noumena, the dark enlightenment but xenosystems is a good work to start off from. Nicks work at CCRU is cool too but beyond my pay grade for now.
  • Iq shredding, bioleninism, post mortem on neoreaction and the politics of heredetarianism by Spandrell found on his spandrell.ch for now. Spandrell distilled sopme ideas very well, besides iq shredding and bioleninism, his essays on the post mortem of neoreaction and heredatrianism are great reads. He also wrote essays on what he calls sexual deviance that quote Michael Bailey. He is extremely easy to understand and not as verbose as Moldbug.

Now the next two are not as gentle in their tone and are heavily inspired by jim donald of jims blog now on blog.reaction.la where he blogs. Jims vision of reaction or neoreaction has more pua, catholicism and medieval euro values than those of the first three. These are archives of two blogs of people inspired by him. I would cal this post NRx, though these two perfer the term Rx (reactionary).

  • truthinaworldoflies.com (use internet archive to read this). This is a great short primer on nrx and rx thinking but heavily influenced by jim but not as explicit. if you go on archive.today for the archives of alfs posts, you will find miscellaneious sections on god, family and other things as well. The main thing alf stresses on is what a friend of mine I met here calls cafetaria christianity, I have simialr issues with faith myself, him admitting this publicly was fairly honest.

  • setting the record straight by Aidan Maclear. Aidan now writes on chevauchee.substack.com and like alf was a longtime PUA guy who was more on the manosphere spectrum than on the PUA spectrum, so little in terms of technique, mostly psychology. He has no filter and packs a lot in just 100 pages.

All of these people are fiarly interconnected. Spandrell and Jim commented on slatestarcodex alongside heartiste, Curtis wrote a post about scott alexander and why hes wrong too. Alf, Aidan and Yareally were present on Heartiste and the first two are prolific commentors on Jims blog alongside the dividualist.

Esoteric

  • Bronze age mindset by Bronze age pervert. BAM got recognition among the non frogs post yarvins praises for it. BAPs writing are more philsophic and esoteric in nature. His ideas with regards to bodybuilding, embracing atavistic euro values, the aesthetics of europe are fairly popular within many young people my age. BAP is heabily inspired by philoshophers of old, especially neitzche who Spenglar saw as a primary influence.

Bonus

  • book of yareally by yareally and heartiste on game/his archives. I strongly recommend yareally over heartiste as in case you are a young person, this will give you an honest idea into what human mating looks like and what it can look like if you optimise for it and how to get there. Heartistes archive or his two books titled on game volume 1 and volume 2 in my humble opinion do not cover it as much or as well. Yareallys work offers a complete roadmap on how you can go from being terrible with girls to being a real social magnet who can read people, social situations and get an intuitive understanding of how women think. He recommends great resources along the way like sex god method, tyler digest etc that are not canned PUA routines.

Again, I do not in fact am telling people to believe all that is written here, the first three are foundations of what we would call NRx. Let me know if this would make a suitable blogpost. I always have wanted to make an intro to NRx after all.

What is this place?

This website is a place for people who want to move past shady thinking and test their ideas in a court of people who don't all share the same biases. Our goal is to optimize for light, not heat; this is a group effort, and all commentators are asked to do their part.

The weekly Culture War threads host the most controversial topics and are the most visible aspect of The Motte. However, many other topics are appropriate here. We encourage people to post anything related to science, politics, or philosophy; if in doubt, post!

Check out The Vault for an archive of old quality posts. You are encouraged to crosspost these elsewhere.


Why are you called The Motte?

A motte is a stone keep on a raised earthwork common in early medieval fortifications. More pertinently, it's an element in a rhetorical move called a "Motte-and-Bailey", originally identified by philosopher Nicholas Shackel. It describes the tendency in discourse for people to move from a controversial but high value claim to a defensible but less exciting one upon any resistance to the former. He likens this to the medieval fortification, where a desirable land (the bailey) is abandoned when in danger for the more easily defended motte. In Shackel's words, "The Motte represents the defensible but undesired propositions to which one retreats when hard pressed."

On The Motte, always attempt to remain inside your defensible territory, even if you are not being pressed.
