Read this book for a required class.
The intense amount of racism and misogyny throughout this book is honestly astounding-how can a man hold so much prejudice and immediately contradict it sentences later? Rousseau cannot hold a single stable thought throughout this entire essay.
It's interesting to read in almost a masochistic way, but would never have picked this up on my own. Tired of reading about awful white cishet men in the college curriculum.

It's interesting. It's flawed. It's Rousseau. It's the way it is.
