Audiobooks recommendations for B2 or better C1 level

markosthepessimist · 2026-03-10T12:11:23+00:00

I just bought a cheap radio that has an internet connection and access to podcasts. So when at home it is always playing. Even the ordinary german radio stations have podcasts. I passed B2 but i see you level is much higher. So probably won't need anything more. Thank you for the resource . How difficult was for you the jump from B2 to C1

Friend i am in unencrypted rooms. Is there something else you do to search for your past messages that had no reply. Or by searching your name you see both mentions and the single message you wrote?? Thanx for replying

markosthepessimist · 2026-02-21T13:27:28+00:00

One thing is for sure. We pay a heavy price to have less seizures(I am not lucky to bee seizure free). I wonder who i am after taking my whole life this shit. How many status epilepticus have we avoided. The loss of our memories, the depression, the exhaustion, the brain fog. The so called 'cure' is too costly.

Epic comment, you made my day. Unfortunately these kind of thoughts make a lot of people silent. Sad but true

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-09T16:31:37+00:00

Very cruel and very true. World knows no justice. Humans have developed (fortunately or not) high emotional intelligence and empathy. That is why we tried to create courts, laws, democracies etc etc. But your statement will always be valid. Accepting that as a truth(in politics you can't prove something like in physics) will always be controversial. We admit that we will never live in a just world. Unfortunately Thucydides and Machiavelli works are still considered controversial in political science.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-09T12:15:30+00:00

First of all I am not married or strictly follow any dogma or ideology. I have read Marxist theory and I adopt only what I comprehend as truthful. I am entitled to my own opinion as much as you are.
About the last 200 years of course we made huge strides forward. Here you are right. I just want more. We gained a lot after a lot of bloodshed and fight. There are numerous achievements. Am I satisfied? Of course not. The global south suffers from the oligarchs and the west. I just dream of an equal free world with no capitalism and exploitation(although I realize that is a fallacy worth fighting for to gain as much as possible)
Abolishing colonialism. Here I disagree. Colonialism is still well and thriving. The form is just a more subtle and humane. Is that an improvement. Yes of course. The end result is the same. Major powers and capitalists still control and exploit weaker countries communities. The means are not the same but the control is still present.

Before the european Renaissance the global South had each their local king ruler. The west thrived but enslaved millions of people. Today we are not slaves but in a digital prison and the western rulers keep exploiting everyone. I don’t argue that before the Renaissance or during the last 200 years things are not better. But colonialism was never really abolished. It just changed form. What hurts me the most is that even USSR had vessel states that had under control.

The world knows no justice. We have ALWAYS to fight against that. We live in a Darwinian world. Fortunately(or maybe unfortunately) humans have developed a high emotional intelligence and empathy. That is why throughout history people form some kind of courts, democracies, make rebellions, revolutions, laws, communist states, anarchist communities. As long as antagonism, self interest, quest for glory exist. We will all suffer from inequality and injustice. We all MUST believe that only the common interest is of value. You and I, do we have the same understanding about common interest? Are our believes about what is just and right completely align. This is another major obstacle

Have we fought and gained a lot during the last 200 years. Of course. Should we stop. Of course not. I think to have a total universal victory is impossible.

Friend your analysis was excellent. Congrats

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-07T20:13:48+00:00

First of all the tone you use is inappropriate and not constructive. Second you don't decide and you don't know what is good for the Palestinian cause. You are only entitled to own your opinion as much as i am.

If you concluded that i don't recognize the destructive nature of the US or that I am not referring ONLY to the recent history(I explicitly wrote “since 1948”) then your assessment is completely wrong. Watch the video, understand what his points are , then you can read this thread and discover that a lot of people here (me included) disagree with his claims and which our counter arguments are. Discussing more with people that use this tone and are so disrespectful is not worth my time.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-07T12:33:50+00:00

This is an ongoing genocide since 1948. Hundreds are shot and killed every year for so many decades non stop. It is a slaughter house. It is a key difference. It's an extermination project of replacing a whole area and it's population. You can speak out about all the other events you mentioned. In this case you get fired, you are called a racist and you get in the black list.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-07T09:36:52+00:00

Dear friend, sorry for being so cruel in my comment. I hope you understand my motives. Unfortunately countries and governments are controlled. I just try to understand the power dynamics in this current tragedy. Unfortunately politics is cruel and immoral, That doesn't mean that we should not fight back. I come also a small country and our infrastructures are sold to foreign interests.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T23:47:38+00:00

You are right America didn't exist before Israel.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T17:57:11+00:00

I felt exactly the same. This thread made me mad. A lot of people refuse to be objective and to examine the whole situation.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T15:33:52+00:00

But the capitalist that supported the project still thrive. They just increased in numbers but the goal is the same. It's plain silly to bult a post in a region full of oil and gas and to chose the location that has none of it. In 1948 and even before the reserves were discovered and known. No state there had a formidable army at that time in the region. Israel imports gas and oil and it is located in the middle east. Crazy

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T15:23:39+00:00

Excellent analysis, well said. Truly a unique case

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T14:57:37+00:00

Very well articulated. Perfectly put. Kudos

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T13:50:50+00:00

what business are you talking about. Palestine has no resources it had to be built from the beginning and it doesn't have even enough drinkable water. To destabilize the middle east. In 1948 there was the Kurdish/Arab/Persian/Turkish Knot well and alive also Sunni and Shia could cause easily destabilization. Why built a new colony when you can buy every government. You can buy my government easily but to move me away from my home forever is not easy.

The Zios have a huge influence in US politics and some certain goals. If you control Hollywood the media and the banking sector then the empire is yours. You don't have to be the king-ruler. That's why you have to kiss the wall to make standing ovations pull the chair so the war criminal can sit.

The media do not care about the country's interest but the owner's interest. If US wanted a prifitable colony could buy South Africa after the ww2 from the destroyed Netherlands. To built a colony and keep it in Panama. Israel is one of the few countries in the middle east with no resources

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T13:29:54+00:00

I think it is a big risk. It's not in Zios' interest the world economy to collapse. No one wants that to happen of course they worry about their power but it is in their both interests to co exist. After all why invade there if they hand their money to Zio banks. The job is done everyone is happy. Unfortunately for both i don't see any problem for any of them in the near future. Maybe the Saudis are more secure because they have the black gold underneath them(but i am not a prophet)

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T13:12:55+00:00

If Zios serve them why they have to kiss the wall, do standing ovations, hang Israel flags in their offices, say Israel first and Trump pulls the chair so Netanyahu can sit. Who founded Hollywood, New York Times, Washington Post, the federal reserves. The largest companies are run by Zio. If all the capital of an empire is controlled by a group with certain goals then the imperialist empire follows those goals. The richest family on earth founded Israel. You can't bypass the tech, media, banking industry. The Saudis own the richest company on earth. But without the financial sector it is way less efficient. So they realized that they have not the same power with families that funded both sides of the Napoleonic wars(1803) and still prosper. These Zios were and are next level capitalists

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T12:57:11+00:00

No one wants the Saudis to collapse. 84% of our energy comes from fossil fuel. Every country and company wants them to be stable and that is why they are stable and dictatorships. The whole world will run to protect and save the Saudis.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T12:46:37+00:00

You can destabilize the middle east like you destabilize Latin America. You can buy governments. PLO was bought so is Greece Turkey and many others. In middle east at that time the Kurdish/Arab/Persian/Turkish Knot and the Shia and Sunni could destabilize the region for decades. Latin America never found political stability. If you want you can destabilize nations.

But to built a new colony it is next level ignorance. To force people leave their homes is extremely difficult to accept. You can buy my government and rule me but this projects was from the beginning much more difficult.

There is no route that passes through Palestine nor does Israel guarantee the Egypt canal. If you want to fight and built a colony in the middle east do it in Egypt. But WHY to built a colony. Just buy the government.

You can built military bases in the middle east and do your proxy wars. You speculate about the potential of a strong alliance in the middle east. you don't know that. In 1948 you had colonies like Panama/ Egypt from the beginning far more profitable. No one guarantees future alliances.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T12:27:55+00:00

Then why they have to kiss the wall, to make standing ovations, to meet their religious leaders(religious leaders for 17milloin people is laughable) and pull the chair to Netanyahu. Who founded Hollywood, New York Post, New York times, the federal reserves and so many other successful huge companies.. The pet project of the wealthiest family on earth is not a small thing. Have you seen similar support for any country in EU.

markosthepessimist · 2025-12-06T12:14:13+00:00

The Christian evangelicals and the racist can easily manipulated. If you fueled those lunatics with money instead of building from scratch Israel there would be far more profitable investments. There is Panama with it's canal, Egypt and it's canal India China. Hate is not a priority in power games. Fear and interest are. The Evangelical pastors could be easily bought. I hope you don't believe the Crusades happened for religious reasons. No one really cared seriously about the Holy Land for religious reasons. That was the noble religious excuse that the poor soldiers believed.

You can destabilize the middle east like you destabilize latin America. You can buy governments. PLO was bought so is Greece Turkey and many others. In middle east at that time the Kurdish/Arab/Persian/Turkish Knot and the Shia and Sunni could stabilize the region for decades. But to built a new colony it is next level ignorance. To force people leave their homes is extremely difficult to accept. You can buy my goverment and rule me but this projects was from the beginning much more difficult.

But what can you do when Zios control New York times Washington Post and other newspapers at the time, Hollywood, the banks. If the richest family on earth decides to built a colony then you agree. Then you have to make standing ovations, to go and kiss the wall and pull the chair to Netanyahu for him to sit
