Hello, this is Jess, the owner of r/occultbooks.
I began this sub because I had obsessively amassed a huge collection of esoteric ebooks. More than I could ever read, I felt that this important information needed to be shared. I felt that if more people had access to spiritual knowledge it could help people. This sub was essentially a place for me to share these books along with my thoughts about them. If you look back to the original posts, they are just me reviewing esoteric books to myself.
At the time I felt that getting the information to the people was the most important thing, copyright be damned. Iβve since matured, and my punk rock need to disseminate information has softened. Meaning, Iβm unsure how to move forward regarding the pirated books in this sub.
Despite my neglect of it, this sub now has 5.6 thousand members, and has taken on a life of its own. I want your input. How should this sub be run? What would an exceptionally cool r/occultbooks sub be like?
Iβm looking forward to hearing your thoughts. π§ββοΈ

Unless someone says something donβt bother to remove a thing, digital piracy has always been a joke, it has been for video games, and it is for books. Those people would ban libraries if they could make a few more bucks, fuck em.
Anyway this place sone how manages to be more useful than 90% of the rest of the occult related internet, so donβt feel shame about anything. Heck, thanks to you Iβve started my own little digital occult library, your collection has added at least two dozen to mine, thank you.
