I'm watching a summary of How to Win Friends and Influence People and I hate it lol! "Don't criticize people." WHY?! We need criticism!! But it's teaching me extremely important stuff, like don't lead with a criticism for someone who has a fragile sense of self, instead show them you care about them, and lead them to the truth with rewards instead of punishments. That's actually really insightful. I'm learning how to not sound like a dick to normies. If I can master that art, I'll be unstoppable. For the moment I'm still just an asshole anarchist though lol!!

Also I'm not saying that all normies have a fragile sense of self, I'm just saying that specific case because that is the most essential time to not lead with a criticism.
I never want to hurt people and I hate being misinterpreted. And I want to be logical and truthful. This book, and making a study of people around me a la Sherlock Holmes, will definitely help me to satisfy both of those desires.
