    Nabokov was not writing Lolita as a person with “sick fantasies,” he wrote is as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, getting into the mind of a perpetrator because he’d been on the receiving end, not because he wanted to do stuff to kids.

    Lolita is… not at all a work of Nabokov’s fantasies. It’s a fucking inditement of everything in the book. He tried to destroy the manuscript several times because he was disgusted at the man he had written, but was reassured by his wife that it had to be published because it shed light on the types of people who commit these kinds of atrocities. The book has the consistent subtext that Humbert is a monster, only barely shrouded by the fact that Humbert is the narrator.

    Lolita isn't supposed to be taken as glorifying the protagonist's obsession with Delores, it's supposed to be showing how much a terrible person will bend over backwards to justify his course of action. It's told from the point of view of an unreliable narrator.

      @human1834 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1343

      Vladimir Nabokov was very against ped0s. The whole point of this book was about how humbert was an unreliable narrator and how he neglected to share certain information to appear better than he actually is. He spent the whole time trying to manipulate the readers. If you actually had common sense you would realise this. Yes society segualised the book but that completely missed the point. Nabokov stretched the point that Dolores was just an innocent little girl taken victim by a horrible horrible man. Nabokov even wanted no girls to be present in the cover of Lolita he just wanted plain words or a landscape. This book was certainly not an apologist book.

      Just because something makes the majority uncomfortable, that doesn't mean the majority is right.
      We disabled people make the majority feel uncomfortable. Some want to lock us up (pathetic and cowardly).
      Sometimes, the majority kind of deserve to feel uncomfortable. The more they ignore problems, the worse it will get.
      While I haven't even read Lolita, I do know it's about how much some people justify their behavior.
      I can't compare that topic with how people treat us disabled people, but a lot of people are willing to go really far to justify their internalizing attitudes towards us and never learn from their mistakes while we have to use all of our energy to go more than half the way when we want to meet in the middle.
      Ignoring something really uncomfortable usually have serious consequences. I wish less people acted so cowardly and didn't hide behind peer pressure. It makes them looks so unreliable.. 😬

      Animal farm portraits communism very good. Every communist leader in history acted like he would change society in a positive way and get rid of the class based system, but in reality, it was always just another dictator, inventing a new class system based on loyalty and ideology.
      Justice always has been subjective within communist states, depending on the leading figures mind, which also makes the idea of this ideology a sole hoax.

    I saw someone else comment that they felt this video was written (at least in part) by AI, and I can't help agreeing. Having read many of these books, the summaries given are superficial and surface-level at best and simply incorrect at worst. A lot of these incorrect assertions make it obvious this creator hasn't actually read the books in question, and the way it dodges the nuance and context behind something like Lolita in favor of what would definitely be an AI-generated interpretation has me thinking there's no other explanation.
    A lot of people mentioned Lolita but I want to talk about Slaughterhouse Five, which was touted as time travel novel + Dresden = make love not war. There is no time travel in this novel, Billy Pilgrim is experiencing the perspective that the fourth dimension offers, in which, like the tralfamadorians who abduct him, he perceives the past, present, and future simultaneously, and his life events are told out of order to reflect this. Of course, the book is anti-war in nature, and someone who actually researched the novel would probably mention in a video like this that Vonnegut was himself at Dresden, and this novel is more potently anti-war because of it. Calling it a 'hippie manifesto' is outrageous, and I also appreciate how aliens are mentioned simply as "this book has aliens" while saying nothing about the nature of the tralfamadorians or Billy's time as a zoo exhibit (again, a video essay like this would definitely have at least mentioned it). Just my two cents, this video is either definitely AI and/or the creator is an extremely lazy researcher...also, the title of this video is literally clickbait, this was like 10 banned books and not 'Every'.

      But from your comment I gotta admire how smart it is to explain experiencing different time periods as "fourth dimension effect".
      I went to Google and the book was published a couple decades after special relativity so this science fiction uses actual physics convictions (the universe being 3+1 dimensions and time being the +1).

Slaughterhouse Five is not a hippie anti war book, but a tragedy that was being covered up by the USA military.

While a lot of people and theories agree on the framed guy not being the actual murderer, we still can't be sure on what really happened behind the scenes. Pasolini was, in that period, one of the most influencial intellectuals in Italy and had a lot of enemies both in the governament and in the biggest companies. 70' and 80' where difficult years in italian politics and what really happened behind the scenes is still unclear and being debated. This just to say that mafia could be implied in the murder but we aren't sure if they were only the material murderers and someone ordered them to do it.

    Lolita is not a love story or a reflection of Nabokov's fetish, despite what popular culture will tell you. It is and was always meant to be a tragedy, something that both Nabokov and his wife stated on multiple occasions. Nabokov reportedly considered a scene where Humbert "realizes, with a shock, that amid the “musical vibration” that lifts from a valley below him, [Lolita's] voice is plangently missing from the melody of children at play" to be one of his favorites and one of the novel's most important passages. "That absence impresses on him the gravity of his crime, the past that he has failed to retrieve, the future that he has interrupted." (Stacy Schiff, "Véra Nabokov Was the First and Greatest Champion of 'Lolita'"). Nabokov's wife Véra commented that many reviewers failed to see past the nymphet persona Humbert has imposed over Dolores, missing her “complete loneliness in the whole world” and “the tender description of the child’s helplessness, her pathetic dependence on monstrous Humbert Humbert, and her heartrending courage all along.” "She cries every night," Véra wrote, "and the critics are deaf to her sobs.” The tragedy and monstrosity of the situation is the point of the novel, not "how [Nabokov] is dying to experience some sick pleasures" as you stated in the video.

    • @milanstevic8424

      I think that Nabokov inadvertently stumbled on this horrific fact that most people are subtle pe**s, quick to stone anyone who gets caught (or talks about it) in order to disguise themselves. That would explain the persistence of pe**a, its emergence in certain historical settings, at certain times, or at certain locations, throughout all kinds of social classes, and even among sacred/religious people (go figure). It would explain the secret societies, child trafficking, the wrong recension of the book in this video (likely AI generated), and this guy Ludwig August Robert Rasch marrying a 15 yo while pretending to be German administrator of Nauru, a small Pacific island, in the 19th century.

      If critics are deaf to her sobs, it’s because HH never shuts the fuck up about himself long enough to hear over the sound of his own voice. While i can grasp the literary elements of this story, it became a tedious read bc the reader spends time ad nauseum with HH & his inner snobbish thoughts throughout the entirety of the book (imagine that, a story with a pedophiliac protagonist and my biggest complaint is that he is a dreadful bore!) *Of course, with Percival Everett giving a voice to Jim in his book James, it’s probably only a matter of time before anyone gives a voice to Lolita in his/her as-yet-to-be-written book Dolores*
      Now i know the counterpoint will be that Lolita is a 1st Person Narrative so obviously the protagonist will be the only perspective within the book; however, i think of the 1st person narrative of Huckleberry Finn… and, how often he disappears within his own story. That’s brilliant! And something that Nabokov never really mastered in his book.
      No, once you push pass the sensationalism of the pedophilia, the story emerges. And, it’s a shame that Nabokov culminated his characters into sexual deviance when that aspect was wholly unnecessary; better if he had HH traversing the United States while repressing a sexual desire for this young girl; we the readers would be having a largely more interesting discussion about this book if Nabokov had painted allusions of HH’s passion for Lolita rather than outright forcing them into sexual trysts. Rather, the story is about a foreigner’s bewildering, detestable attraction to The States which he can’t explain to himself, and the best way to exemplify this confusion is through the experiences of a teenage American girl; when HH doesn’t understand Dolores’ obsessions with comics and celebrity magazines and plasticky sundaes and cornball movies, it’s truly an insight into Nabokov’s foreign viewpoint on America; she’s the younger virginal America, he is the older outdated Europe. He wants to mold her into being a European with tennis lessons, she excels at the sport but could care less about it at the same time. What gives the story away for me is when HH is talking about how the mountains in America don’t compare to the mountains of Europe, but how he has no desire to return to those European mountains again. His failing is that he never quite realizes that the love within him is bastardized.

I'm no field expert by amy means but It's just too laughably bad to be serious to me, many other commenters have already mention the vietnam era edition of the improvised munitions handbook being leagues superior, and it's also never been banned or particularly hard to access, any military man would have it and be able to give it to someone and now it's on pdf right now for free. The AC even reads like what some edgy loser 20 something would say to impress some naive teens who aren't old enough to tell how cringey he is yet. Maybe it is real idk, i mean anarchists are known for stereotypically being like that but I really wouldn't be surprised if it was made by feds to be bait either. Much furor over such a useless book makes me question it.

      This is evident enough with this book being banned and censored to appeal to people about a subject that was never meant to be appealing. People who see Lolita as anything but the delusions of an egotistical predator to romanticize his sick actions are the same as Humbert when it comes to perceptions of the girl. Showing the mental gymnastics the reader has to soften the cruelty of the protagonist so they don't feel bad about reasing the book.

    "48 Laws of Power" kind of reminds me of "The Prince" by Machiavelli. It was a book written for royal princes to teach them how to rule their kingdom and manipulate their populace to ensure compliance even through less than ethical means. I read somewhere that it was very secretly written as a warning for the common folk as well since Machiavelli had some outstanding grievances with the crown and also that the book was mass produced in the common vernacular of Italy... that everyone could read.

    So funny little thing about Lady Chatterley's Lover is there was a rumour that could have been distorted over the generations. Lawrence was born in my hometown of Eastwood, and when you hear stories from older people who got stories from their grandparents, it was often said that D.H. Lawrence was a very sour man who caused people to actively avoid him as soon as they saw him. One thing they were notably afraid of was being slandered in his works, and it was believed that the Lady Chatterley was in fact a real person of high-standing who was the subject of such slander. A conference hall and hotel in town is said to be where the estate in the story took place, and there's a pub in the middle of town called the Lady Chatterley.

    Animal farm is so much more.

The book ends with the pigs and humans playing cards round a table and the pigs becoming bipedal. It's about how absolute power corrupts absolutely. All the animals have short life spans and only a few remember what life was even like before the revolution

      This also effects other media, movies and games included.
      You will never see an American playing the villain, potentially because of hollywood propoganda. But also because they experiance harrasment.
      Thats why you often get foriengers in that positions.
      This forms an unhealthy view of other countries.
      An example of this is the video game "Red Dead Redemption 2" of which is considered masterpiece of fiction specifically for the main cast mainly the player character, Arthur.
      Now this is a sequal game, and he and other members dont appear again. So they have to be offd in one way or the other. Now our villain (the one who was harrased). Michah bell, is as described by many "a bottom feeding rat" who while unlikeable throughout the 1st half. Gaines a foothold to manipulate many cat members. Leading to a emotionally draining betrayel.
      The actor was harrassed and sent death threats because of his amazing performance.

    One book I really expected to see is Mein Kamph "My struggle" by Adolf Hitler, volume 1 and, or volume 2 too, and one book that isn't banned, but is just as controversial and similar to some of the books, (covering controversial and dislike topics), is American Holocaust: The Conquest of the New World by David E. Stannard, I'm really not sure if you already made videos on these 2 books because I haven't really looked at your channel, but I doubt that because from what I can tell, you made videos about a group of things that are similar under one topic, thank you, bye.

      It was absolutely crazy that it didn't get mentioned AT ALL
      Most of these books can kind of teach you something important about life or just be a psychological horror
      Or are actually bad for people but not THAT bad
      Making them highly controversial at worst
      On the other hand
      Mein Kampf was agreed by many people to be just "Something no one AT ALL should read under any circumstance"
      And compared to other nazistic or fascist books,it was the most popular one,so it not being included was insanely strange and a big L by the Analyst

    Actually, I’m pretty sure in Brave New World that marriage isn’t a thing. Everyone belongs to everyone else, after all. And it’s not that they’re *forced* to do these things so much as it’s enforced and reinforced since childhood with things like hypnopedia. And the castes are also designated by intelligence, with Epsilsons being the lowest and Alphas being the highest. So you’re more *born* into a caste rather than forced into one. In fact, the only people that ever really *act out* against the system are Alphas, the most intelligent of the castes. But if they do act out, they’re not tortured or killed by the system, they’re simply sent to an island with like-minded people.

    I once did a brief book report on the Anarchist Cookbook in college. There are 2 things about it that weren't mentioned in the video:
    1. The recipes are allegedly unreliable and dangerous to perform, leading to some readers getting severely injured or killed when they tried the recipes. I don't remember who, but someone from the FBI said something along the lines if, "This book is especially bad because it is inaccurate. It's more likely to kill you than help you." They refused to give specifics, but that's probably because of the book being linked to multiple criminal investigations. (I'll also admit that I haven't verified these claims simply because I didn't want accurate pipe bomb recipes to show up in my search history.)
    2.: The author of the Anarchist Cookbook later regretted writing the book and has lead multiple efforts to remove it from distribution. None of those efforts have been successful. The publishers now thoroughly own the rights and adamantly refuse to remove the book from store shelves, leading it to still be published and sold for a profit to this very day.

Still, it's heart wrenching that happened.
