A stevedore on the San Francisco docks in the 1940s, Eric Hoffer wrote philosophical treatises in his spare time while living in the railroad yards.
‘The True Believer’ — the first and most famous of his books — was made into a bestseller when President Eisenhower cited it during one of the earliest television press conferences.
Completely relevant and essential for understanding the world today, ‘The True Believer’ is a visionary, highly provocative look into the mind of the fanatic and a penetrating study of how an individual becomes one.

I don’t need to be convinced of the obvious, that the Marxists are staging a counter-revolution in our Republic. I say “counter-revolution” because the Marxist goal is to overthrow the successful revolution staged by our founders almost two and a half centuries ago. And the enemy is not just “at the gate”; they are, in fact, on the cusp of winning the ultimate prize: total domination of the United States of America.
Most AT readers certainly understand what’s happening, but some may find it surprising that the Marxist seeds were planted late in the 19th century. Whether through the federal government, trade unions, the entertainment industry or the media, Marxists and their fellow travelers have been weaseling their way into American society for well over a century. At times they were repelled by patriots… but almost always at a price. Revisionist history, the “new normal” controlled by the Marxists, usually paints these patriots as delusional wackos and conspiracy theorists.
The same is true today, but it’s now on steroids. It’s a tried-and-true method the left habitually uses when they can’t deny the facts, nor answer questions posed by the opposition.
…
‘The True Believer’ was, from a certain perspective, a harbinger of the hate and destruction that awaited this country seven decades in the future.

@alnilam oh do bore off
July 30th, 2021
@alnilam How about you credit ‘Liam Brooks’ of American Thinker for doing all the thinking for you? Since you directly copied and pasted that. Because attempting to have an original thought of your own might kill you.
July 30th, 2021
Thanks very much. Hoffer was far ahead of his time and his insights have become even more relevant.
July 30th, 2021
Okay @alnilam, let me understand. You post a book about how people become these fanatical true believers. And then you spout some unproven tripe about a mass conspiracy. Did you READ the book? Perhaps you should because you could be the textbook example.
July 30th, 2021
Alnilam. Lol. Pîss off with your bullshît you clown. You think a quote is a vindication because you’re too stupid to make your own arguments. All you do is copy paste other peoples sub par thoughts and think this is engagement with the times. It’s just spam. All you do is spew spam. You’ve even been told off for it repeatedly by admins and you just keep on doing it. You literally just parrot the same moral panic nonsense that has been rolled out repeatedly by every reactionary grifter ever to crawl out from under a klan hood with a suit and tie on since before the satanic panic. You’re a nonsense generator and your fuel is ignorance.
July 30th, 2021
Despite whatever controversy that apparently has occurred in the comments section, Alnilam has uploaded many excellent books, which I hope will continue.

> You’ve even been told off for it repeatedly by admins and you just keep on doing it
Pretty much like with “microaggressions”, it seems to me that some participants attempt to substitute INTENT (conscious desire to make them suffer) with CONSEQUENCE (they allege to suffer, and that somehow makes it my intent).
There are actual ABB rules (based on the forum rules, civility and common sense) — and also there are perceived politically skewed ABB rules (like “told off for it repeatedly by admins and you just keep on doing it”).
Politically neutral admins-mods would enforce the actual rules, mandatory for all participants, regardless of their political affiliations.
Politically motivated admins-mods (unless I’m missing something) are considering the enforcement of some special progressive rules, making their intentions and heart’s desires increasingly more apparent, while still pretending it’s not the case.
To reiterate my earlier point from another post:
“I was under impression that participants can write in book comments pretty much anything — closely or loosely related to the subject at hand, including “stuff made up out of whole cloth”, whatever that means, and “arguing with a completely illusory straw man”, whatever that means, and quoting whatever they like etc — and still remain within the legal boundaries (based on the forum rules, civility and common sense)”.

Surely modern society is far too rational for there to be any fanatics nowadays…
July 30th, 2021
@AgentZigzag - I can’t see any fanatical toadies around here can u? (Thx for yer service, Agent. You’re one hell of a tennis player.)

It’s amazing that you’re able to acknowledge this is a thing that happens, whilst also not having enough self-awareness to recognize that’s all you do here.

Thank God, we narrowly avoided a Trump second term with all its totalitarian connotations. The Capital Hill coup failed also.
Biden is reassuringly boring but has at least started to address the chronic situation regarding crumbling infrastructure.
The hate scum are still out there scheming and plotting to try to inject their hatred into the mainstream. The fight goes on.
July 31st, 2021
Yeah, because it was the marxists who stormed the Capitol, who want to restrict voting rights, who want to limit women’s rights to decide their own destiny, who cry ‘fake news’ any time anything makes them look stupid and tone-deaf. Yeah, the marxist have done all that. Also, you do know there is actually an entire world outside of your parochial little county level view of life the universe and everthing? It might surprise you that not everyone in the world thinks in that simple dicotomouc manner, that the rest of the world regard the US as an absurd, idiocracy, a power in decline, consumed by it’s own moral and financial corruption.

A very important book. Thanks for the upload.

Only finding blind fanaticism on the other side of the culture war divide and not among one’s own is in itself an expression of blind fanaticism.

…tell it like it is, Thamus. A self-serving, unchallenging narrative is their deepest joy.
July 31st, 2021
Shut up caesar. Nobody likes a suck årse.

…QED.
“toady under wheelbarrow playing with tool, not necessarily mechanic.”

Naturally, with some “election fortification” here and there, it’s all for the greater good, you understand.

“I’m a ranting schizo-poster of overwrought pseudo-intellectual nonsense who refuses to seek treatment while simultaneously repeatedly accusing absolute strangers online of easily disprovable lies. Why do i do this? Well, I’m an 1diot.”
- Caesar, 25 July 2021.
Did you not write this precise thing on a different comment thread? I remember reading exactly this just the other day.
August 1st, 2021
You are indeed a ranting schizo-poster of overwrought, odious, nasty nazi nonsense who refuses to seek treatment while simultaneously repeatedly accusing absolute strangers online of easily disprovable lies.
Why do you do this? Well, you’re an 1diot.
Your sole coherent statement, Heinrich. Kudos on toast!
August 2nd, 2021
Oh kudos for just recycling everything i said to you a couple weeks after the fact. So lets see, you reused the words i said to you about ‘ranting’, ’schizo-posting’, being ‘overwrought’, ’seeking treatment’ etc. You think you can just uno-reverse that onto me? All you need to do is admit you lied. Looking desperate bud! Bit shakey on your feet champ?
That was all direct quote from YOU darling! I put the date there and everything just for you. Don’t you remember? You said all that stuff just the other day. Unless you dispute that? Do you? Would you like to dispute that?
You couldn’t make antisemitism stick as i’m definitionally not an antisemite. You couldn’t make genocide denial stick as I did not and do not deny any genocide. You couldn’t make the nazism stick because i’m literally and actively anti-nazi in my political activities.
So what do you retreat to? Lies. Your little safety blanket of lies. Does it keep you warm?
Just in this last week you’ve repeatedly made disgusting homophobic remarks and done a ‘chinaman’ impression. Such an excellent advocate for olive branches across society. Going to deny that too?
It would be unfortunate if anyone who knew you found out about all this terribly embarrassing stuff you’ve done wouldn’t it? I mean, it would be really unfortunate if someone was to piece together the information you’ve volunteered here alongside your IP and figure out your actual identity, would it not? On a related note I would strongly suggest you use a VPN in the future.
I am doing this because you lied and thought you could get away with it like a coward dog.
August 2nd, 2021
“Darling?” From an actual nazi?! (Shivers)
You made all these horrors stick yourself, because you invoked them, er, sweetie. Let’s see: “definitionally not an antisemite” - when you refer to the Jewish homeland as the “Pig People’s” “apartheidt” - a country established following a genocide which you generally term “a zinger” characterised by “historical revisionism” - an event which sane, non-nazis call the Holocaust.
Your “political activities?” Now that’s a scary image. Rallying, marching with homemade banners, breaking glass, intimidating the most vulnerable? Take yer foot off the gas, Heinrich, you guys have done enough damage. And “not all genocides are the same” remember? Jesus wept.

Any chance that the amphibian and the primate can get a room? All these overblown comments are giving me carpel tunnel syndrome.
Thanks for the upload @alniman
