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.
True enough lol. I grew up kind of socially isolated (in a fairly strict sect of Christianity) so I found the book very helpful. It has had a significant impact on my life because it laid foundations for me that my parents really should have lol.
I had the same experience, that it filled in the gaps my parents didn’t teach.
