“The 48 Laws of Power” is a nonsense garbage book

[incel194012940]

it’s a pretty interesting book to read tbh, reads like a fairy tale

But the fact that every single prison library in the world has that book in stock debunks the idea of the book as dangerous/subversive

author admitted himself - book is a nonsense and a scam, impossible to follow

I read it in the 4th grade, I thought I was the coolest for that

“Get Others to Do the Work for You, but Always Take the Credit” - yea that’s me when I don’t do anything in the group project, I am such a BADASS! Power Play!

I’m pretty sure the only reason people idolize this book is because it’s written in such a simplistic, stream of consciousness, high dopamine way that even a 8 year girl with a tiktok fried brain could read it - if they had the same set of neurosis as “incels”/tate money larpers online

Still, my hunch is that most people in these spaces who “read” the book in fact watched some redditor/chat gpt made TDLR YouTube video to larp reading as to artificially inflate their perceived intelligence

Looksmaxxing is more important than this book realistically, we are all already smarter than this guy.

99% of self help crap is obvious. How to win friends and influence helped me but I think if you are a normal person you have already internalized most of the lessons in the book.

The bible has the best advice in general

didnt read the book but from what ive seen from faggots on here say about it is that its a bunch of obvious shit you shouldve already known + most advice in it only can be used if youre good looking

finally a decent good take from you. 100% agreed everyone thinks they are smart or some master manipulator when they talk about this book. it makes me cringe so hard (like physically cringe) when someone talks about how they can "make people do whatever they want" because of this idiotic book

Probably, that book is very boring and contradicts itself knowingly

If someone wants to read an entertaining book that they can also learn life lessons from, I'd recommend Dune.

How to Win Friends and Influence People is a good book for aspies

Why even spend time with this redpill nonsense. Reading is for nerds. Looksmax and get a life.

the laws are dogshit and taken from a bunch of anecdotal historical experiences which may or may not be made up. that being said, what makes it a useful read is that it opens your eyes to the fact power is amoral and wanting it is not evil or unhealthy in any form. no one has the time nor the memory to apply the contradictory "laws" from the book, but absorbing the main lesson definitely gives you a slight edge
