I’m gonna say my top non fiction books are:
The Narnia series, who knew that lions could be found in seemingly ordinary closets! Wow!
Harry Potter series, if I had known about hogwarts before i went to college I would definitely have applied there.
And then probably Wikipedia, man there is a lot of info on that book
I don’t understand what your ultimate point is? Is it not common knowledge that major powers spy and sabotage each other? And would that not make this news uninteresting?
And you bring up my other comments, but are you trying to argue that Americans are bad at capitalism with my first comment? Americans are undoubtedly the best at capitalism, name one other country that really takes capitalism and sticks to it like it’s the only thing they know how.
You are furious at me and all I have said is that this is not new news to anyone with common sense.
I’m no yank, and is it really news that major country spies on other major country? Allies spy on allies, why would enemies not also spy and sabotage each other?
Should they do this? Probably not. Is it surprising that they do? Not at all.
Wow, what news. US spies on China, China spies on US. I can’t wait to find out if Russia and the US spy on each other, or if North Korea and China spy on each other. Or if (country) spies on (other country).
If I wrote a self help book, it would say, don’t pay for self help books when you can instead read famous amazing books for free instead.
I despise self help books, the money spent on a self help book could instead buy a copy of some classic literature, which will be infinitely more useful and meaningful than “Step 1. make a lotta money, step 2. Sleep 5 hours a day, step 3. Cold shower brrrrr”.
Even better, you can just read a classic book on gutenberg or an ereader for free, and donate the $15-$20 to a charity.
I can easily undercut their price by predicting every young male in all the poor neighbourhoods.
I mean, in the 19th century London was the biggest city in the world, and like most cities was very progressive. If you look back now and judge from our current lens then it looks really conservative but people in the streets campaigned to end slavery, and the British government outlawed slavery across the whole empire and used their very large and impressive navy to enforce these laws. Just because some private individuals made vast profits off of selling slaves to the US doesn’t mean it was legal or even a popular thing.
