Some parts are genuinely pretty funny and some parts are a little insightful, but it's nothing groundbreaking or super interesting overall.

I enjoyed it. Lots of funny little bits in there. Sort of like the fever dream every disaffected angry white dude has while waitng in an inner city dmv turned into a novella.

Read it. I did it in half a day, it’s an easy read. Incredibly creative. I enjoyed the way he uses language and the themes Mike writes about are important to every strong white male on the planet today. It activates something primal in you.

I’m interested, but I get the vibe that it incorporates a lot of edginess and reliance on shocking things to make up for a lack of depth and actual content. Does this seem to be the case for anyone that’s actually read the book?

There's definitely some aspects that read of "very online" edginess, but overall it didn't bother me. Very much a contemporary work and if you're a little older you might miss some of the references and irony I suppose.

Overall though it's not that shocking. There's some parts that are in black redacted boxes. The narrative isn't linear and reads like disconnected thoughts and experiences. It's about as edgy as fight club.

Bronze Age Mindset tier cringe, it's self aggrandizing and uses strange yet familiar language to impress retards vulnerable to that kind of thing. I haven't even read neither of these books I just intuitively know what's in them and I can gurantee you it's gonna be that. E celebs are worms, they never have anything interesting to say, like you can just tell by BAP's twitter that he's gonna take schoppenhauers cringe philosophy (of whom I also only the synopsis cause fuck reading philosophy LOL) twist it on his head, act like he and the people who read them are musclebound warriors standing on top of hills and mountains with "POWER" echoing through their souls. It's boring. It's predictable. Nothing insightful or unique or original to be found. Avoid.

yeah bitch I actually happened to read that part as one of my friends sent it to me, it's however exactly what I said it is. He just takes schoppenhauer, flips what he said on its head, and now that the value system is reversed and violent risk taking behaviour is seen as good. It's nothing insightful, ok retard? Boring, predictable, and CRINGE.

yeah but larping as the strong when you have to hide from the apparatus of state which actually does all the things you can't is based huh? face it you're a bunch of onionboys.

Does seem the case for me. I thought it sucked, it was repetitive, boring, poorly written, it quickly became unfunny. I wrote this sort of stuff when I was a edgy
redpilled 17 year old. Nothing groundbreaking. Yeah I know it's supposed to be ironic and pretentious, that doesn't make it good/enjoyable or anything of the sort. Imo it's a waste of time.

Sandbags from Fitshit or Rep Fitness are $60 apiece, fill them with dirt and go to town. You can even adjust the weight by removing or adding filler bags as needed. I have two because my gym got shut down and I wanted to keep training. In total I spent $120 for full-body weight training equipment that will last for decades of daily use.
