Dude busted his ASS at everything he did in his life- even being a school teacher. Yeah, he was a corrupt and power-obsessed guy, but he worked like hell for his success.

he was one of the only Virgo Presidents - they are hard working, charismatic chameleons and become sadists and pure evil in positions of power

most serial killer are also virgos

Ghenghis Kahn is also believed to be one

that book series is POTUS biography imo

I like the first one best. It has an amazing depiction of the Texas Hill Country during the Great Depression - people today can't even conceive of the level of poverty and desperation back then. LBJ was extremely poor back then as well. You take someone who is by his DNA one of the most naturally ambitious people ever and combine that with being totally desperate and it makes for great story-telling how he approached everything in his early rise with total manic devotion.

i remember tearing up at one part of the Hill Country parts

it was such a depressing depiction of poverty

LBJ and Nixon are basically two versions of the same archetype

LBJs shadow was too overpowering and Nixon (top 5 potus imo) was too scared of his

Have you read Power Broker, i need to read that next - it explains why MFH is such a fucked up shithole well i heard

Just bought it on Kindle- amazing how easy buying books is now. Literally just google "power broker kindle" and 30 seconds later it's yours.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Power Broker is bullshit and, tbh, makes me suspicious of the LBJ series too. It uses a bunch of convoluted or deceptive shit to blame Moses for NYC’s problems when the problem is obviously just that tons of blacks moved there, and then it also invents bullshit reasons to accuse Moses of racism.

Eg there’s the famous anecdote of the road to the beach being designed so white families in cars could get there but not blacks taking public transit; whole story is fake.

James Kunstler made me hate Moses way before I read Caro. Tearing up the major cities with highways seems to have been a mistake no matter who lives there.

i have a working theory on the mazzalot that you are really your exalted placements, i have a taurus moon (exalted) and capricorn mars (exalted) and i think a jupiter pisces (ruling) so im really those most prominently hence my obsessions with money, pussy (zoomer & genx always age gapped due to the capricorn) power and food but also spiritual conquests that involve sever long form suffering

the ones i have in detriemnt fall are super sps allegedly and i have heard several times that i have one of the most "toxic" posiible charts as a man for a woman to deal with

democratic 'politics' is such a sleazy, low-rent, kikey activity that having any aptitude for it is the mark of a degenerate. anyone who thrives in these systems is pond scum.

Hitler took one look at the proceedings of the Vienna Parliament and rubbished the whole democratic system in toto, with an aristocrat's disdain.

The 1968 primary wasn't a concern. It was a cataclysm. Eugene McCarthy won 5x as many delegates. Against a sitting President. In a single state. In one night.
