What's the most :marseysociety2: piece of fiction?

Helmer: You are talking like a child. You understand nothing about the society you live in.

Nora: No I don't... I must try to discover who is right, society or me.


Off the top of my head, there's Ted's favorite book, Conrad's The Secret Agent (which gets my vote, because he makes fun of Twitter anarchists for larping). There's all the angsty shit Dostoevsky wrote. There's Roth's American Pastoral, which, if anything, is anti-:marseyunabomber:. Then of course there's blue-pilled 1880s Norwegian feminism, or old-timey female Joker lit: Ibsen.

But what really is the angstiest piece of literature for edgy anarchists to read that's not shit? 1984 doesn't count, because Orwell was a boring socialist and it's peachy and redditty, unlike Brave New World. What Is to Be Done? doesn't count, because Nabokov and I say it's dreadful.

What would the gigabrained Joker actually carry under his arm as he assassinates John Lennon?

Not fiction but Nietzsche. Dude is still top tier edgy even by modern standards and is funny as shit and insightful as well. He would’ve unironically been a dramatard.

He wrote at least one novel, didn't he?

He wasn't edgy. Provocative is the word. If he were edgy he'd be considered edgy moreso today than back then.
