not much to explain. chick stole her from mom, banged her best friends boyfriend, and was just a general user of people. she clearly didn't give a shit. She recommended this book to me as it had "helped her so much in the past".

it's because they choose to ignore history, we are driving in full force into a fucked up society again

My favorite part is when he discusses how the lying media can influence the masses to turn on their own country and descend everything into chaos, and allow other countries to then conquer that country.

What is this passage referring to?

To me the real magic of the bible is understanding what a passage or sentence is referring to. When you don't know, it sometimes feels like you are reading the dictionary.

While I found it entertaining it's vastly inferior to works that came before it because Dawkins is a day who refuses to read "unscientific" work
Try the Prince, the Geneology of Morales and Civilization and it's Discontents by Machiavelli, Nietzsche and Freud respectively

>>15765547

While Freud was considered a maniac/lunatic/crazy because of his books that break the status quo and social norms, beliefs and expectations, his books are still worth reading because they are still a collection of HIS own experiences and opinions, which give insight into the mysteries of the human mind.


>>15765573

I would refrain from judging others when you yourself have more than likely never written a book that sold even 1/1000th of what Freud has.

This is not a black pill.

>>15765493
why are 4chan autist sofond of Nietzsche?

>>15759630

>>15765593
The Communist Manifesto is also one of the most sold and distributed works world wide. (Especially compared to e.g. Mises or Hoppe). Doesn't make it good tho.
I am not discoraging people from reading Freud but he should be read to understand where the sexual pathologization of our current society comes from and not to "learn about yourself".
If someone wants narrative psychology (in contrast to more scientific behaviourism) he should read Carl Jung or Joseph Campbell.

>>15765595
Because he is the best writer who will ever exist.

>>15765642
Jung is a pseudo-spiritual fag. Freud was a genius who made some wrong assumptions but whose thought process was incredible. He has yet to have a worthy successor.

>>15765594
Is this a demotivational picture

This one. Especially the part about not finishing people's sentences for them. I used to do that a lot.

>>15765595
because Nietzsche was the first writer ever to criticize and factually destroy all of the platforms that western philosophy stands on, taking them apart piece by piece, showing the flaws of his predecessors and brutally, yet with finesse, completely and utterly pulverizing all of their reasoning and creating a new platform for others to stand on, one that is far greater than anything else seen before in western philosophy.

He showed the flaws in western philosophy and thinking.
He was the one who brought Europe, the bastion of humanity out of its mental fog that existed in the form of monarchies, that was slowly corrupting and nearly halting down progression of mankind.

If you still do not understand why Nietzsche was the single most important figure of the western history, you have to read his books.

Simply put,

Nietzsche opened the eyes of men to themselves,
so that every man who reads his books will finally open their eyes and see the path that we have to walk,
to finally create a world of men who lead with conviction so absolute,
that they will bring a time of glory and prosperity never seen before.

He is the one who made men, MEN again.

>(((you)))

>>15765767
>every man who reads his books will finally open their eyes and see the path that we have to walk,
>every man
One must renounce the bad taste of wishing to agree with many people. "Good" is no longer good when one's neighbour takes it into his mouth. And how could there be a "common good"! The expression contradicts itself; that which can be common is always of small value. In the end things must be as they are and have always been—the great things remain for the great, the abysses for the profound, the delicacies and thrills for the refined, and, to sum up shortly, everything rare for the rare.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbWI6Wj9xDI

>>15765797
With the word "man" I meant men who are MEN,
not "everymen".
The word man meant those who are meant to lead, those who are Übermensch, if one were to read Nietzsche's books, they would realize they are one.

Not every male is a "man".

>>15765767

Not a book but I advise to watch the Stanford courses on human behaviour from (((Sapolsky)))
It's a very holistic summary on the science of human interactions.

Most self improvement books are not worth the time though, Carnegie is obsolete (unless you interact with old people all day) and Greene laws of power are mostly overtheorized mumbo jumbo.

The only self improvement book which really stucked with me over the years has been the rational male, it makes it so easier to deal with women and their bullshit.

Why do people praise this book? I read it and felt like 100% of the I formation inside of it was inherit knowledge that any decent person should already know. It's almost like people these days need a book to tell them to not be self-centered and myopic.

I mainly hold scams, or as in coins that are seen as scams by intelligent people, because majority of the users are stupid and will blindly pump any scam, thus making the scam a good investment.

So LINK, RSR, QNT, UDOO, JSE, SENT, DENT, ONE

each of them but I wont tell the % but overall each of them is atleast 5% of my portfolio.

>>15766078
and sentiment of the markets currently is lacking, or as in that the market is kinda shit because no bullruns until btc halves.

And people who came after Nietzsche that made an impact were hitler and couple famous capitalists which I am not going to name, but they have been in top 25 richest people during their lifetimes and they have said atleast once that they lived by Nietzsche's teachings.

>>15760007
Utter garbage full of padding. Thinks hes fucking nietzsche except doesnt know what succinct means.

>>15767411
and to continue this,
Yes, those men were successful only because of them being equipped by the knowledge of Nietzsche, because without the knowledge of Übermensch they wouldn't have succeeded as them.

Because with Nietzsche they understood that only individuals matter for humanity, and thus if you are one of these Übermensch, you are allowed by yourself to break any societal laws, customs and cultures for your will is more profitable for humanity than any of the current laws.

I hope this makes sense, english is not my native language.

>unironically buying a book by someone called ‘bronze age pervert’

you should’ve been swallowed.

>>15759794
Because it's literally a handbook for human relationships which is very useful learning tool for sociopaths for whom these things don't come out naturally.

If you are pretty good at faking emotions (which some women are experts at) you can pull lots of shit with all the things you can learn from it.

I made most of my gains in sats holding scam coins so I won't fault you there. I'm an ETH maximalist all in on XCM personally. I like flat markets. Holding only alts in a flat market or bear market takes balls and I have woken up to 50% losses before but I am certain its the best trading strategy. You just need to understand you are playing a rigged game and are going to make some bad calls.

I probably could hazard a guess as to which capitalists you are thinking of but if you don't want to name them that's fine. I have never known what to think about Hitler and suspect Nietzsche would have hated him for being an anti-European socialist but do consider his ability to inspire people incredible, perhaps the greatest since Alexander the Great.

I honestly really like some of the post-structuralists. For all his word salad Baudrillard did go somewhere with Nietzsche's ideas.

I couldn't tell you weren't a non native speaker but did think you have a strange writing style.

people will say "hurr durr common sense"
but the thing is, are people really aware of this? using and applying this?
they may have heard this stuff once in one of thousand motivation/improvement pics from their facebook wall but people are doing nothing at all.

Yes it is a good book if you think about each chapter and try to see these things happen in real life. How this stuff works out.

It is a good book and good to have the content in the back of the head to either use it yourself or recognize it when someone else is using it to get advantage of you or other people.

This isn't a book that helped me specifically but it's the last book I finished about a week ago. Also I'm sure 99% of the planet is actually too dumb to read it
