I just finished this, it really resonated with me, I want to adopt the bronze age mindset instead of being a bugman. he mentioned the possibilities you have in africa, how it's possible to become a pirate/warlord/conqueror there. Realistically, how do I start my adventure there, become a mercenary? what do I have to do? I'm somewhat smart, tough and bold, I think I have what it takes

Seeking status is a surrogate activity you only think you want because "it would be cool to have status". Real power is obtained from thine own self sufficiency. Move into the Montana wilderness and become a farmer. Read Kaczynski.

This book is just an artificial presentation of manliness adapted by men to appear more manly. It is disgustingly obscene, with all interpretations of manliness fed back into it, redoubling manliness while at the same time destroying it as part of some game of fashion and self-production. No more are there harsh games with high stakes that this book dreams over (or at least wants to pretend to dream over), there is only the ludic manipulation of profiles in networks, where everybody becomes their own terminal, managing their "look". This book isnt radical and manly, it poses as radical and manly to spread like a contagious virus consumed and perpetuated by children and weight lifters (what has exercise become but another layer of auto-interactivity and appearance management for the presentation and indication of athleticism and manliness?)

Don't listen to the dreamless faggots.
The first step is raising your worth as a person. You do that by amassing a few assets, building your body, mind and soul. You will need enough to live comfortably (it isn't much once you abandon superfluous things, you just need a roof, water, food, hygiene and internet). You also need to train to be reliable in combat. Read the references BAP tells you in his book.
The second step, after becoming ready to escape your western cocoon is to travel. Travel around, know enough likeminded people, find your hill to die on.
The third and final step is the execution of the plan. You'll have to be able to be the nexus for the people you knew in your travels, or have found another person capable of doing so. A man is not an army. You can all join forces and start operations. You'll need to research weaker, more degenerate groups and become their predator, until you gather enough might to overthrow a small regimen or two.
