I'm not OP, but if the reason you have a hard time processing your emotions is at all linked to your upbringing, I've found this book quite helpful: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009VJ4B4C/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1

Basically, the book is about how your parents can inadvertently teach you that emotional expression is bad, which can screw you up, because expressing emotions and by extension, your needs, are a fundamental human drive. The book will give you techniques on recognizing your emotions, and a lot of useful support on encouraging you to be more comfortable expressing them.

If you want to understand racists, read one of the really great critical scholarly histories of their movement, some of the rich political psychology work on white identity and racial attitudes, or work on the politics of ethnocentrism. All of these will help you understand real white bigotry and white nationalism in the world, and crucially none of them is white-nationalist propaganda that claims something wild like that white nationalism is some kind of perfectly valid alternative interpretive frame for looking at consensus reality.

>Or that there is very little evidence that a vote for Trump was a vote against The Establishment, and very substantial evidence to the contrary

The point of discussing a rise in populism is not to prove that all Republican voters are anti-establishment, it's to highlight new factions and rearranging political parties. Do you seriously think there hasn't been a rise of new political factions in the wake of Trump? Who the Hell cares about Clinton or Zizek? Plenty of ordinary mainstream thinkers have been writing about this topic for a while now, like this book.

>I can’t really get behind The Big Ž’s method since it so often proceeds by way of using pop culture in place of hard evidence

Uh huh. And who again is pedantically flogging the virtues of objectivity and rationality?

Laughing at 35 year olds interested in My Little Pony and philosophy is just not enough of a train wreck for me to stop and point at is all I was saying.

If you're looking for beautiful books to learn calculus from, try Spivak's Calculus. Also, Misteaks. . . and how to find them before the teacher does. . . outlines an excellent approach to studying calculus (or really, any technical field.)

Sort of indirectly related to SneerClub subjects, I hope that's ok. Apparently this guy Richard Carrier - of course not himself a New Testament specialist at all - tried to show that Jesus did not exist by waving the Bayes wand. Needless to say, it got rather bad reviews in professional journals. It seems a pretty astonishing example though of the belief that by applying Bayes' formula to any subject, you don't need to actually know anything about it...

I know in Carter's Stonewall history, he set up a contrast between Mattachine/DoB and the "street level" rioters at Stonewall. It's been a while since I read it.

He evenhas some sort of a point there: We sometimes hypercompensate before coming out, desperately trying to prove to everyone (mostly ourselves) that we are real men. This changes a lot after estrogen though, with lots of us going trough a hyperfeminine second puberty.
