TIME TO GET SERIOUS
I was thinking that since this is the year that things finally start popping off we could accelerate the redpilling of the Anglosphere by finally getting 200 Years Together, Alexander Solzhenitsyn's famously banned book, translated. It's been done in the past but they are shoddy translations with many pieces missing. I've been running the numbers and this is what I get:
The book consists of two volumes, the first being 512 pages and the second 600. The average word per page is 500, so for both works we have 256000 words and 300000 words accordingly. The average translation work day is about 2000 words per day in an, I would imagine, 8 hour work day. That's a pace of 250 words per hour. So for Vol. 1 we would need 1024 man hours and Vol. 2 we would need 1200 man hours.
MY THOUGHTS
If we were to do this, we would need to:
a) decide how we would get it translated (depends on the funding amount)
and
b) crowdfund the amount (hopefully without getting the cause shoahed)
As for a): I found that there are many Russian-English freelance translators on websites like Upwork who charge anywhere from 15-24$ per man hour of translation. The problem with this is that they might not have the historicity in their noggin needed to translate passages dutifully. The other is that some of them are pink haired fymynysts who might inject their bias into the translating.
We could try going the academic historian route, maybe one with some tinge of antisemitism to ensure validity, but this would be hard because the person would fear being blackballed. This could be mitigated with an omission of his name though. Also, we could try a translation services company but I think we would face many of the same issues.
As for b): KIKE KIKE SHILL MONEY GRUBBING KIKE. Yes yes, now that we've got that out of the way, I don't speak Russian and probably neither do you. If any FSB agents are listening, then we could use some support, but until that comes we need to be able to pay for services rendered. For that endeavor, I am not that well funded so I can't foot the entire bill myself. I would ask that we crowdfund the necessary cash (refunded should no one worth paying for step up to the plate) so that we can finally get this treasure trove of a book into our anglo mitts. Imagine the connections we'd be able to make with current conspiracies, I salivate at the thought.
CALCULATIONS
Well, as it stands Amazon does sell the original here: amazon.com
Pretty pricey, but we can live with a cost at ~$150.
Next would be the translation portion. I'll use a $20/hr average though it would likely be higher if we were to go with professional services. It might take a while to find a professional company that would be willing to take this project on. I'll add in 20% of 'Murphy's Law' breathing room as things likely will go awry.
Vol 1. = 1024 * 20 = $20480 * 1.2 = $24576
Vol 2. = 1200 * 20 = $24000 * 1.2 = $28800
Campaign 1: $24576 + 150 = $24726
I think it would be reasonable to do a crowdfund for just the first one and then we can do a second one if the resultant product isn't complete dogshit. Let me reiterate, this would be the cost using a literally who translator on a freelance site so likely not the great historical translation we've always wanted, so the more this raises the better translation we'll have.
WHAT WE WOULD GET
The end result of this campaign would be an excellently translated version of the famous Vol 1. of Alexander's famous series. This does not include a print. This could be negotiated later, but my goal is to have a PDF copy available to all who wish to read it. I would pledge to make the translation open source (like software, not 100% sure how it works in the book world). I would have it made all pretty and put it out for free download without DRM or any other bullshit.
HOW DO WE KNOW YOU'RE NOT GOING TO RUN OFF WITH THE MONEY
I'm not a kike. I won't take a single penny for my own profit. Any money left over can be reimbursed or set aside for the next campaign should the first be a resounding success. It's probably that no one will take on this project at all or at least no one we would want to spend the money on. In this case, I would provide a full refund to everyone involved. I'll even donate the book to the National Archives (though I would like to keep it uwu).
I would like to know what you think about this project, ideas about which funding source won't get me shoahed immediately (jewstarter probably won't work) and if you'd be willing to chip in some money. I think if we got the boys over on the Stormer involved they'd be willing to do a funding drive if we actually gave this project some legs. It's time to get this book out there.
