Is this book a meme or worth reading? Gone through Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, Schopenhauer, Carlyle, Greek Stoicism and a number of others.. Curious if this is an entertaining light read or if I should continue on with more of the classics

It’s a meme.
I’d never pay for it.

i read it, it is a light entrtaining read and you can do it in one sitting, it has a bit of truth to it and sometimes it reads literally as /fitlit/ poster or a evolved /pol/ might is right
however i took the ancient greek hero myth pill and its great as one day i will evolve up to modern philosophy

I wouldn't mind something like that honestly. I love the deeper stuff but Crime and Punishment was hard to finish at points. Also wouldn't mind a good laugh or 2.
Also what do you mean by the ancient greek hero myth pill?

Because of how incredibly advanced they were? Because they are the foundation of the greatest civilization the world has ever seen?

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius is memed by some people but is honestly worth the read. If you can take away certain mindsets from it, it will help you build mental fortitude. Also would recommend Discourses by Epictetus (Epictetus influenced Aurelius)

They aren't though. They represent the exact opposite of the Greeks.

Are you OK? Your post looks like an incomprehensible alt-right meltdown, friend. I hope you'll feel better tomorrow.
