I’ll go with the low-hanging fruit: Mein Kampf. I’ve read it, cover to cover. As a piece of propaganda, it’s good. As an example of good writing? Absolutely not (though I will admit I have only read it in translation). Oh, and the whole fascist, racist, and generally shitty worldview of the author that he infuses into the text. And the fact that the author is literally Hitler. You 5-star that book? You’re a Nazi. Period. And as a Jewish person, I don’t look too kindly on them.

      yeah, OP and many people in these comments have missed the point of this question. it is farily obvious these ideologically driven books being someone’s top book is a red flag. i don’t know why you would even match with anyone who actually thinks these books are the best, as they probably aren’t on dating apps flaunting it.

      “Hey folks! My date I met on craigslist is inviting me to go camping in the middle of the woods three states away with no phones on a first date! They even say they’ll bring me some sunscreen since I told them I had AB+ blood and they said that there’s special sunscreen for that. They were asking about my medical records a lot, maybe they’re a doctor? So excited!”
