If that book sparks your interest I'm pretty sure you won't find anything original in there that you didn't already know. Fighting = good, friendship = good, being good at stuff and having a spine = good, effeminate modern society = bad, being a lazy fatass = bad, toxic masculinity = not actually toxic, etc.
Depending on how much you pondered the topic already it might put thought into words that you did not yet formulate. Plus it won't take up much time as it's short and effortless to read.
He does put hyperlinks in the footnotes as sources sometimes which I find a bit cringeworthy but then again you read it for the content not the academic standard.

I can't take it seriously, because i know his thoughts are fueled by his love of men therefore corrupting an actually manly perspective, idk.

this is true. anyone who espouses masculinity while being a degenerate is actually espousing femininity aka emotionality and lack of responsibility.

Part of being a man is being in control of thoughts and emotions.

The basis for his entire book and persona are horny gay sex. Last I heard he was doing that Wolves of Vinland type shit. Gay sex around a campfire in animal skins with a bone necklace type beat. You feel me? If anything the fact that he gravitates to the pagan weight lifter things makes you stop and think, hmm maybe some feminine energy in my life is actually straighter

I read it in highschool and for about an entire year I viewed all male relationships from its perspective. Looking back, I realize I was an autistic edgelord who didn't understand anything about human psychology.

You're lucky. The same thing happened to me and the book "primed" me too seek out an alpha male mentor. What happened next? Let's just say it involved a lot of late nights at the powerlifting gym

It's got some interesting sections, but it's flawed enough that I wouldn't blindly recommend it. I've recommended it only once, and only because I knew the person well enough to know he would be smart enough to take the good parts at face value and discard the bullshit.
