Came across a nice video on my feed. I am generally not that big of a reader, but I try to be. I do like the advise to move on when you are not interested on a book or topic, as well as affirming that speed reading is kind of a scam. Generally when I read its non fiction and often something I am learning about. I've always had to take time with the material and it feels like being an odd one out if you are not getting something right away or as quickly.

(video) Give me 16 minutes and I'll teach you how to read like a PRO

Something to think about: the fascists are degenerates. And by degenerate I mean they naturally degenerate. They are self-indulgent, shortsighted, impulsive, self-destructive. Compared to good people who give a damn, they are pathetic. Its part of the reason they are parasitic and so dependent on exploiting others. Their primary advantages are their selfishness, amorality, and undeserved feelings of entitlement. They look scary because they have little fear or shame, they are more aggressive and confident, and they like to form mobs, but individually they are lacking, and their alliance is based on convenience and little else. All we need to do is be better than them, and to know it. And I don't mean in a "turn the other cheek" kind of way, I mean in a general competence and virtue sort of way. Commit to being better in ways they can't, in ways that require self-awareness, growth, care, discipline, commitment - all the things they're terrible at. Let them cannibalize each other while we build ourselves up and become less vulnerable to their tactics. Then we will be ready and able to take things back from them, piece by piece, wherever and whenever the opportunities arise. We will be better able to defend ourselves and our communities. We will be better than them, and we will win. We just have to commit to it, and not hesitate or let up when it gets difficult, or when the fascists cry that they're hurt or it's unfair. We have to be relentless. That's all it takes to be unstoppable.
