Name one philosophical/sociological piece of work that can top this? I will provide arguments to show why any piece of work you say is not as strong or interesting.

Schopenhauer's 'On Women' essay. Made me the redpilled man I am today.

FUCK OFF GOONAN. No one wants to read your shitty book. I looked over the introduction and realized it was a generic shitty self help "find yourself" book that slowly devolves into oversimplistic argumentation for conservative morality.

If you fucking keep shilling this book, I will continue to insult you in every thread you post it.

It's one thing to be like "Hey guys, I wrote this book, I want to tell you about it" but its just fucking obnoxious when you waltz in here pretending you're a prophet of the second coming of christ. At least have the decenty to not talk about yourself in the third person, you fucking moron.

I really like that piece, but it facilitates men and women to think that women have no accountability, therefore it is always men's fault when women do something wrong and women are free to do as they please. The Foundation advocates for men to step up and curb the destructiveness of women in any way they can, but also makes it clear that women must use their brains and at least partially understand that destructive behavior is destructive.

Read the entire book. If you don't understand what is going on in it, then you are part of the problem.

Just be happy I read ANY of your book. I doubt all your shitposting has accomplished much more than that.

So congratulations Goonan. Your shitposting acquired one (partial) reader, and he hates you.

Dude, you're just a cookie cutter lib. Get a clue.

no this book is trash and written by a 24 year old

>unironic ageism

Again, have you read the entire book? If you just read a paragraph here and there it will really seem sort of mediocre and you won't get the bigger picture.

Fuck you, Gooman. Quit shilling your shit

"When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him."

>find dunces
>babble retarded nonsense
>"shut the fuck up retard"
>lel i am this eras gratest mined

>tfw I'm a true genius

Is this retarded nonsense?

Life is completely meaningless and free will allows for people to act on the meaninglessness in different ways, all funneling categorically into the duality: Destruction or Building. The path of building builds the collective conscious and everything necessary to support it to enjoy life and discover Truth, while the path of destruction tears everything down. It is not Wrong for
people to decide consciously or unconsciously to ruin what others have built because at the core of why people build, there is no
absolute Reason to build in the first place. An absence of absolute Reason does not make destruction automatically Right or building automatically futile.

In the duality something that is wrong is actually something that is destructive. Something that is right is something that builds on top of our meaningless existence for a life worth living and strengthens people against destructiveness.

Fundamental individual destructive tendencies given our free will in a meaningless existence are a lack of self-control, cowardice, a lack of wonder, and a lack of sense of humor. Without courage, self-control, wonder and/or humor the individual and society disintegrates. A lack of those four things leads people to wrath, depression, madness, hedonism, and ignorance. These five major ways that destructiveness occurs greatly diminish the quality of someone's life and eventually lead to the cessation of life for
the individual and humanity.

All of these reactions influence the collective conscious, which shapes the existence of the individual and humanity.

Individuals create the collective conscious and are created by the collective conscious.
Individuals influence the collective conscious and are influenced by the collective conscious.

Society is an entity that binds and directs individuals according to the perceived collective conscious. It is intertwined with the individual and can create destructiveness in the individual. A collective effort is needed in order for humanity to self-actualize and be on the path of building. Society is the vehicle for building.

Individuals create society and are created by society.
Individuals influence society and are influenced by society.

A fundamental way society creates destructiveness in the individual is the creation of powerlessness along with, or due to
encouraging the destructive behavior above. Society can destroy individuals by pushing wrath, depression, hedonism, madness, and
ignorance onto them, and in turn the collective society is destroyed itself. Everything is connected. An individual may have been
courageous and in control and possess humor and wonder if not for the outside force of society pushing the person to be destructive. But remember, an individual may and should always strive to be on the path of building despite all of the wrongness surrounding oneself if the individual chooses life.

No, but it is obvious and trivial. Middle school level "insights."

This is exactly the boring conservative moralism I was talking about.

In your view, were the Aztecs adhering to a proper mode of "building" or "destroying" when they built their pyramids and sacrificed thousands of prisoners of war on their altars Was Hitler a builder or a destroyer?

You've built up some extremely generic ideas about Good and Evil, while trying to maintain that life is meaningless.

I seriously don't know how you can write "Life is Meaningless" and also a capitalized "Truth" in the same paragraph.

You have an extremely confused notion of individual responsibility and societal "action", which is it, are we individuals or cogs in a machine?

This whole excerpt is riddled with tautological thinking. Courage/Control/Wonder/Humor are Good because the Build Society. Society is Good because it is only built through Courage/Wonder/Humor/Control.

And really? "Self-Actualization" is the biggest fucking spook ever. It doesn't mean shit, it's just a fancy word that means "A good thing".

>A collective effort is needed in order for humanity to self-actualize and be on the path of building. Society is the vehicle for building.

Collective Building is Required for Society which is Collective Building.

All of this formalism is hogwash. You have a set of ideals, arbitrary as any other, which you are justifying with a formal system to avoid their arbitrariness. In the end, your formal system isn't eternal or universal, it's just one more reactionary backlash.

And why the fuck are you writing your Philosophy in the format of a self-help book? This shit is stupid.

Here is the summation, in probably a hundred words, of probably 3298071235987 quintillion destructive emotions and actions every person experiences, yet no one understands the core tenets of the human nature and consequences behind them, in which I explain clearly.

"Wrath

Our inherent meaningless existence produces mental and physical anguish. Other people or society as a whole can exacerbate anguish
produced by existing. The source of this mental and physical anguish is powerlessness. An individual that feels powerless may
reject the conditions that produce the powerlessness and retaliate through wrath as an attempt to gain power. The attempt to gain
power through wrath is either the attempt to supersede the powerlessness by trying to obtain all the power one can get (which
indirectly creates destructiveness in the individual and society), or the direct destruction of anything that creates powerlessness.

Wrath is destruction and destruction is power.
Wrath is extreme power and extreme power is destruction."

and this is just a small piece of my entire philosophical foundation, in which I pump out probably 2 new groundbreaking and true ideas per page for 120 pages. Most philosophers think of one lousy idea that is only a fragment of any of the ideas I present.

>pump out 2 new groundbreaking and true ideas per page for 120 pages

listen to yourself bro

so i pirated this and man it's... bland? is this some weird self promo tao lin thing

By "pirate" do you mean "read the first couple paragraphs on my website in which it is free"? And you haven't read more than the first few pages, here's something later on:

Homosexual men are averse to masculinity, most likely having had bad experiences with overly masculine men or overly harsh women
that subjected the man to fear and powerlessness. Men who are homosexual were likely to be exposed to extremely masculine men
(father) counterparted with an extremely submissive mother in which the child would turn to. This manifests later when the child is
exposed to masculine boys in which the child feels inferior and turns those feelings into sexual submissive feelings towards the boys rather than trying to be masculine himself. The child then turns to approval from his girl peers, just the same as when he turned to his mother who would provide comfort from the domineering overly masculine father. Men who are homosexual may also have
had a weak and feminine father in which the child learns and mimics, and never understand the importance of cultivating masculinity.
The homosexual man becomes adverse to the harshness of competing for women and the difficulty in cultivating masculinity. The
homosexual derives pleasure from being submissive to more dominant men, the path of least resistance in grappling with his
inferiority and difficulty. Homosexual men relinquish all self-control. This is why they are likely to be hedonistic and pursue casual sex. The "gayness" of the homosexual is a lack of understanding that a man must be courageous, have self-control, and that true happiness does not come from being overly gay and happy all the time to protect from the harshness of existence, but comes from
accomplishment, self-actualization, overcoming, truly connecting with others and so on. Homosexuals artificially pretend that
everything is great and project this pathetic gaiety onto others. In the certain kind of flamboyant gay man these things can be seen
the easiest. These projections and the man's feelings of inferiority, especially regarding masculinity, reflect the man's inability to grapple with the demands of existence and the cultivation of power."

I thought lit was better than this. Are these people the best lit has to offer?

And you're . . . blown away by this?

I don't think you understand what's going on here. These are ideas Outside of the standard academic philosophical faggotry. You can't apply your previous thoughts of things to completely new conceptualizations.

"Section 3: Power, Biology and Society

Maintaining a strong society is vital for the success of the human race.

Society is an application of the collective conscious for the organization of individuals.

Society has created beings that are different and more than just animals, but we still retain an underlying animalistic nature.

Society is full of individuals that interact with one another. Each of these individuals must have a degree of autonomy and
individual power in order to be on the path of building, but as one individual gains more power, others may lose it, and can fall
into destructiveness through wrath and especially despair. Society provides guidelines for social interactions and the allocation of power.

Considering these two important components of human nature (Underlying Animal/ Underlying Power) in relation to society:

1. A strong society is based in balancing the pursuance of our biological nature completely and the rejection of our biological nature.
2. A strong society is based in balancing the desire to obtain all power and the desire to relinquish all power from ourselves.

These are the Biological-Artificial Spectrum and the Power Spectrum."

>Is this retarded nonsense?

yes

Homosexual men prefer bigger penises

btfo, delete this post

Yeah psychoanalysis is completely new

>t. brainlet
I seriously don't understand how you can live with yourself. You're rehashing ideas that would have been outdated by 400 BC, while proclaiming yourself to be a philosopher, while worthwhile philosopher struggle all their life to get a handful of ideas BECAUSE the field has become so subtile and hard that the most a mere human can aspire for is to have a dozen concepts.
Seriously, kill yourself Goonan. Or read a book, and kill your ego.

As an African-American woman who works in publishing in Manhattan, I like to come here and see how stupid young white men are and why their shitty lives are in the toilet. This thread is a prime example. Losers! There aren't many of you in Manhattan and Brooklyn, but when I'm in flyover country, I see goons like Goonan all the time. Young white guys like you will never grow up and your lives will always be worthless. Why not commit suicide now rather than wait and do humankind a favor?

So, what is this book about really? At least give me that OP

This is simply pathetic. The lengths people will go to keep themselves in their safe bubbles, afraid of realizing others are greater than themselves, and know more than themselves. The reason why I am in the position I am in today is because I am quick to recognize when I am wrong and discard my previous understandings foe new and better. For some reason I thought I saw a few intelligent people on this board so I'd thought I'd send out the beacon here, but unfortunately, as I am used to, there is no sign of life.

Contents:
Preface- Understanding the necessity of working with subjectivity.

Introduction- The Question: Should I continue to exist? Basis of philosophical thought in creating an existence that allows humanity to thrive.

Section 1: Welcome to Not Nothing- The duality of human nature- rejection and destruction, or acceptance and building given the inherent structure of existence which is- "We have free will, we are not all powerful, we are not all knowing, and we experience the universe with a biological framework and consciousness."

Section 2: Destruction and Building- Cultivating power, facing powerlessness. Path of destruction involves a lack of self-control, courage, wonder, and/or humor, with the person succumbing to powerlessness through either wrath, depression, madness, hedonism, or ignorance due to the lack. Path of building involves self-control, courage, wonder, and a sense of humor.

Section 3: Power, Biology and Society- Maintaining a strong society(and individual) through a balancing of the pursuance of our animalistic nature completely with a complete rejection, and a balancing of the desire to obtain all-power and a desire to relinquish all power from oneself. A society comprised of men and women pursuing an animalistic sexual nature will crumble. The polar nature of masculinity in men and femininity in women must be upheld.

Section 4: A World Completely Off the Mark- Application of the philosophy into the areas of Government, Politics, Economics, Agriculture, Environment, Science, Crime and Punishment, Mental Illness, The Media/Entertainment/TV/Internet/Porn/Advertising, Lack of Freedom/Technology/Overpopulation/Overcomplication/Globalism, and The Exploration of Outer Space. Focus is in creating a society in which people feel the most power, connection with one another, and connection with the universe.

fuck of goonan

Complete animalistic sexual behavior in men is characterized by the pursuance of having sex with many women with disregard for
choosing a single mate to create a family with.

Complete animalistic sexual behavior in women is characterized by the pursuance of a man or many men for only their high sexual
prowess with disregard for the creation of a strong family due to:
A. The desire for the woman to put off raising a family in this pursuit, which also contributes to a long-term negative effect in the
creation of a family in section C.
B. The unlikelihood that a man with high sexual prowess will settle down and raise a child with the particular woman given the fact
that he has many other options and may be animalistic himself.
C. The elimination of the possibility of raising a strong family with a man who has less sexual prowess than any man the woman has
had sex with before. The reason for this is that a woman will only remain subservient and desire to be with the person who is the top
alpha male in her sexual past. The woman is subservient to the feelings and pleasure that the alpha male gave her. A man who remains
in a relationship with a woman in which he has no possibility for becoming the top alpha male in her sexual history is a beta and
therefore weaker and inferior to the actual alpha male from the perspective of the woman and her feelings. If the woman disregards
her sexual hierarchy and starts a family with a beta male, the partnership is doomed to be weak and they will fail in remaining
together and fail to create strong offspring. The woman may have chosen the beta for his provider status because of her inability to
hold down an alpha male. The beta is a provider of both monetary and emotional support for the woman. The woman is the dominant
person in the relationship with the beta male because she holds the locus of power in the relationship- her sexual feelings and needs
that are not being met.

Unconvincing.

This baseless rambling changed your life? You can do better.

We shape the environment and our environment shapes us. The environment contributes to the aesthetic of physical existence, which influences our aesthetic perception, and mind. Some aesthetics are better than others. Human beings create the aesthetic of cities,
buildings, land, and existence. The aesthetic must be created with intelligence and planning. Its construction must get rid of
artificiality and distraction. The distraction is a distraction from the fact that we live in a universe in which we do not know
everything and are not in absolute control. Artificiality creates this distraction. The environment should not convey that humanity
has taken over Earth, but is rather a part of Earth.

The ideal creation of an environment and infrastructure is one in which our entire concrete/asphalt jungle we call civilization is
undone. How this environment will play out and function in the whole of society can be found in the sections on economics and
technology. Technology has completely and seemingly irreversibly changed the infrastructure, aesthetic, and existence of the
environment and community. It has completely and seemingly irreversibly annihilated a natural and wonder inspiring environment and
life. The industrialization of our world must be undone. Cities must be recreated to be small, functional, intertwined with nature,
and conducive to community. Our current environment evokes constriction, isolation, a separation from nature, a separation from one
another, excessive industriousness, an acceleration of day-to-day life, confusion, artificiality, and powerlessness. What we
physically create and see as our environment reflects our internal selves as a society.

It makes you wonder how if people are supposed to be one particular way based on the human nature outlined in this text that they could have possibly strayed so far from it in the first place. And I wonder how someone manages to reach down and understand that human nature if they're born and raised within the artificiality of cities and has no exposure to any other cultural way of life; of any other possible evidence of what 'human nature' might be. If someone starts writing about 'ideals' they're pretty far from writing anything other than speculation. You're posting fiction, which is why you're in Veeky Forums instead of Veeky Forums I guess.

Seems like a waste of time just rewriting Rousseau.
