What single one book will give me an immutable mindset and make me 100% secure and imposing in everything I do?

Kinda hard for that to not already be the case. Anywhos just bounce around from various... fascist authors and intake their correlating views on concrete, definite reality being a mixture of things. Idk though, you’ll just come up with whatever you want anyway.

You don't get that from a book, but from within.

My strongest book would kill you anonymous, your mindset isn’t strong enough to handle it. You’d better ask someone for a weaker book.

I've read both, but what you gotta understand bros... Is that reading a book about carpentry won't make you a carpenter.

The proper way to read this is to have a picture of Cesare Borgia nearby and start masturbating. That's probably what Machiavelli did

Is there any truth to this book beign satire? Heard the opinion a few times but no idea if it's a legit interpretation or not.

>> No.19207972

>>19207964
It's not satire, but people completely get the meaning of the book wrong.
It's not about becoming le evil man who does everything for themself.
It's about how to be a good man, and still being able to compete with moral-less individuals. If your enemy will do things you're not willing to, they'll like win.
Really this book is all about choosing your battles for maximum effectiveness, but it goes over most retard's heads.
