It's a help book. If someone else wrote the book, they're helping you, it's not self help

>Whatever lip-service we may pay to Reason, to moderation and compromise, nevertheless there remains the lion. A lion in each one of you. He is either tamed— by too much mathematics, by details of design, by corporate procedures—or he stays wild, an eternal predator.
>The lion does not know subtleties and half-solutions. He does not accept sharing as a basis for anything! He takes, he holds! He is not a Socialist or a Liberal. You will never hear relativity from the lion. He wants the absolute. Life and death. Win and lose. Not truces or arrangements, but the joy of the leap, the roar, the blood

I will never understand why such incredibly inoffensive life advice sends discord trannies into an uncontrollable rage

It's not that hard to understand. They are miserable because they had bad parents, were bullied as a kid, etc. So they want others to be as miserable as them instead of actually improving their own lives.

The very warranted fear that an increase in servility to the demands of health and wellness would go a long way towards alleviating the burden their cope is currently supporting. Not all trannies, but because of our modern epidemic of learned helplessness and grotesquely extended infancy the vast majority of them.

Honestly there are very few "true specimens" in any category, let alone trannies. Most of us are copeing as "true believers" in our roles. The believers always come second to the specimen and deify the specimen. Caprice ceases to exist because of believers and every aspect of an identity or role becomes a serious and venerated thing. The absence of the ability to joke and take a joke is the sign of a critical mass of believers>specimens.

The fact that an identity can be transient (as all identities truly are) flies right over the heads of believers. They cannot into hypocrisy and therefore have no chance of grasping the base origins of originality. So much damage is wrought by these wretched imitators who suppress their healthy hypocrisy (the emergence of an out of the template passion) in the name of true belief.
