Contents:
Preface- Understanding the necessity of working with subjectivity.

Introduction- The Question: Should I continue to exist? Basis of philosophical thought in creating an existence that allows humanity to thrive.

Section 1: Welcome to Not Nothing- The duality of human nature- rejection and destruction, or acceptance and building given the
inherent structure of existence which is- "We have free will, we are not all powerful, we are not all knowing, and we experience the
universe with a biological framework and consciousness."

Section 2: Destruction and Building- Cultivating power, facing powerlessness. Path of destruction involves a lack of self-control,
courage, wonder, and/or humor, with the person succumbing to powerlessness through either wrath, depression, madness, hedonism, or
ignorance due to the lack. Path of building involves self-control, courage, wonder, and a sense of humor.

Section 3: Power, Biology and Society- Maintaining a strong society (and individual) through a balancing of the pursuance of our
animalistic nature completely with a complete rejection, and a balancing of the desire to obtain all-power and the desire to relinquish
all power from oneself. A society comprised of men and women pursuing an animalistic/hedonistic sexual nature will crumble. The polar
nature of masculinity in men and femininity in women must be upheld.

Section 4: A World Completely Off the Mark- Application of the philosophy into the areas of Government, Politics, Economics,
Agriculture, Environment, Crime and Punishment, Mental Illness, The Media/Entertainment/TV/Internet/Porn/Advertising, Lack of
Freedom/Technology/Overpopulation/Overcomplication/Globalism, and The Exploration of Outer Space. Focus is in creating a society in
which people feel the most power, connection with one another, and connection with the universe.

Stoked, my copy arrives thursday.

I read it and knew the guy was from 4chan before I'd even finished. People on /pol/ have their own set-in-stone ideologies that they refuse to alter - they all have the same internet redpill philosophy that only exists with people who don't interact with the real world. Some of them say that society will only be better when we explore space, others will say that we need to return to tribalism. It's endless, but they always say that their argument is the correct one and that everyone else is wrong, end of. That's this book in a nutshell. Society is x, so y is the solution. It doesn't offer a collection of solutions, only one. It's so narrow-minded and dull.

>>10478948
Check the trip, it's called evidence, stupid. You probably think you're smarter than me, yet you and your masters play into my hands every time. I'm literally laughing.

Is this a LARP, or is Sean Goonan really browsing /lit/? More importantly if he is, does that make him /ourguy/?

>>10478903
Sean, if you could post a picture of yourself and a timestamp proving to us it's really you. You would reach levels of fame never before seen in the literary history. Please consider.

>>10476988
Of those 2250 copies how many were copies bought by individuals as opposed to downloads of the free pdf?

>>10478976
The 2000's called and want their internet manipulation playbook back. I bet your masters gave you a literally old copy to see if you could think for yourself and wow let's see how that's going?

Consider a different line of employement.

>>10478981
Basic economics.

Bump

>>10479001
Im just double checking as Ive met a few self published authors who do tricks like including pdf downloads or purchasing their own books to inflate numbers.

So it definitely is 2250 books sold to separate individuals?

>>10478994
What the fuck Sean, if it's really you then you should be ashamed of responding in such a negative manner. I was actually considering buying and reading this book since its low price and constant shilling on /lit/, but this behavior of "Sean" (whether a LARP or not) really throws me off.
If you really are the author and you're indeed using this imageboard to market your book, then please act in a more professional or at least smarter fashion. The posts you make give me the impression your mentally ill and grumpy and your posts are not worthwhile to read. Also I suspect a bit of samefagging going on this thread. It would be way better if you embraced being a /lit/izen and be less hostile.

Also stop the constant bumping, it really gives me the impression you aren't really a regular of the board. /lit/ moves at a relative slow tempo and the "bump" adds nothing to the discussion. Sean stop forcing your meme book, or force it more elegantly. Perhaps we need some lubricant because most of us do have a tight asshole, unlike you.

>>10479084
>Implying it's Sean anymore and not someone trying to ruin Shawn's image

>>10479114
I don't care who it is, it just leaves me with a bad impression. I didn't "get" this meme, I read the summary on Goodreads and I can't believe how fucking arogant an unknown author can be about his own work.
Quote:
>The most important organization of thought in the history of our species. Human history will forever be classified as this: Before-Foundation, After-Foundation. Groundbreaking understanding of free will, power, the sexual nature of man and woman, and what it takes to actualize society's potential in order to bring true happiness.
Is this the reason it became a meme? Also I can't seem to find a picture of Sean Goonan online. If Sean really browses /lit/, please think more about your strategy.

No, it's either one person or a handful of people shilling for this extremely marginal, un-interesting book. It may be ironic, but who cares, honestly? It makes the board worse either way

>>10481523
He already looked bad, this is just compounding it.

I actually took the bait when I was new here and added the book to my reading list. I agree about the whole thing making the board worse, I feel the same way about Culture of Critique. The irony is lost when it's unclear what the consensus is due to the spamming

>>10481523

Regardless of whether you're Sean or just pretending to be him, you must be able to see that making a thread about this book where it's obviously unwanted and ends up with you just posting "Kill yourself" over and over is unhealthy behaviour.
