    Hello everybody,

    Does anybody have any recommendations for books on NFG/ZFG, MGTOW Philiosophy, and Stoicism? I already have a copy of “The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F~~~” by Mark Manson and “The Manipulated Man” by Esther Vilar. I was thinking about buying a copy of “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand, eventhough it is a long book. Does anybody have any book recommendations? I want some decent reading material.

    Greatest book I’ve ever read. I’ve been listening to audiobook over and over again for 7+ years.

    If you like DeMello, I’m sure I’ll like the others on here, are they similar to Awareness?

    In my book the ultimate NFG/ZFG given book is a book by Bernard Moitessier who was on a way to win the first golden globe single handed yacht race around the world, but decided that dealing with media, fame, crowds and award money is too much hassle and few weeks before finish line rather decided to sail for the second time straight just, ending up in Tahiti.

    The long way – Bernard Moitessier.

    The choices we make, not the chances we take, determine our destiny

    are they similar to Awareness?

    Badger here:

    Most of the books deal with human nature, our beliefs, our efforts to understand our behavior and others, and how we try to deal with reality. The Peter Principle is satire, but it was a highly popular book and a classic, translated into many foreign languages because it seemed to demonstrate the universal foibles of people.

    de Mello is straightforward about human nature because he was a therapist. So were Wendell Johnson, Susan Presby, and the Beechers. The Beecher books are similar to de Mello.

    Eyewitness account of the ultimate MGTOW. Reads like a novel but is first hand history.

    They went their own way against insane odds, got beat many times, diseased, sacrificed and dismembered while still alive, but kept going. They won. Men like these are no longer made today.

    Nice bit of hypergamy and monkey branching at the end. The local women, the best looking wives of the defeated Aztecs who were taken as mistresses during the campaign by the Spaniards, were, as a peace offering, given the choice to go back to their original husbands or stay with the victorious conquistadors who were banging them silly. Three went back, the rest cucked their Indian husbands.

    Women never change.

    Sermon on the Mount by Emmett Fox

    (Ideal for someone raised in Christian Church but no longer feels connected with the Church. The book goes into detail about how Jesus never intended for his teachings to be used to set up an Organized religion and how much of his time was spent criticizing those who put outer religious observances ahead of inner character . The book focuses on what Jesus really taught – how to improve one’s inner character and how when inner character is improved, our outer acts automatically improve since “all action is born in thought”).

    I wish I had reference to English versions of these books, but as far as I know, there is no such thing…

    Maybe for some people here it would be useful. For me this list represents basement of my Red Pill knowledge.

    So, here it is:

    Nikolai Nikulin Memoires about war (another version of translation – War memoires)
    Николай Никулин Воспоминания о войне

    Real depiction of WWII from ordinary soldier’s POV, which was created in attepmt to overcome author’s PTSD and to tell the truth about what really happened. This book was published only in mid 2000’s due to almost guaranteed retaliation from government. No bulls~~~, only real deal. Very tough reading.

    Sergey Savelyev Variability and Genius
    Сергей Савельев Изменчивость и гениальность

    Sergey Savelyev Brain’s Poverty
    Сергей Савельев Нищета мозга

    Sergey Savelyev Cerebral Sorting
    Сергей Савельев Церебральный сортинг

    These three books depicts background of Soviet R&D projects of human brain exploration, outcomes of it, explains nature and origins of genius, current state of affairs in society, why it is so f~~~ed up, natural (in fact artificail, and there it was explained why and how) selection mechanisms, globalization, feminism and equality bulls~~~ and its inevitable failure, cerebral sorting, scientific proof of existence of quantitative and qualitative differences between people, and many other things.
    In general, these books could be used as MGTOW’s manuals for life exploration and exploitation if needed. These are one of the most powerful books I’ve ever read – red pill as it is!

    Alex Svetly Man’s Almanac
    Алекс Светлый Мужской Альманах

    Comprehensive analysis of Russia and Russian manosphere from early 2000’s. I’ve mentioned this book early on forum, it’s worth reading.

    If forum members would count this useful and interesting, I could post links to these books in Russian.

    To understand how the future will look like:

    To gain a new viewpoint on Islam:

    Michel Houellebecq – Submission, William Heinemann, 10 September 2015

    To understand why trans are a threat to feminism and more generally, women, and why sex robots are exactly the same issue from a female viewpoint:

    Janice Raymond – The transsexual empire. 1979. Boston, Massachusetts: Beacon Press. ISBN 9780807021644.

    To understand why going monk is the best way to go:

    Valenti, Jessica; Friedman, Jaclyn. Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and A World Without Rape. 2008. Seal Press. ISBN 978-0-7867-2705-6.

    SUPREME LEADER KIM JONG-UN'S FASHION STYLIST - if you want a new look or if you're a very beautiful trans you can call me, phone number +85079255312 / mobile 01921421211. The worth of a man isn't the usefulness that women get from him. Avoiding living with a woman, a man isn't rejecting a lot of sex: he's rejecting sexual starvation. MGTOW IS TACKLING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN COMPLIANCE WITH CONVENTION OF ISTANBUL: http://www.coe.int/en/web/conventions/full-list/-/conventions/rms/090000168008482e --- Article 4, Section 4 "Special measures that are necessary to prevent and protect women from gender-based violence shall not be considered discrimination under the terms of this Convention". WHAT I LEARNT FROM A GENDER STUDIES CLASS IN LUND, SWEDEN: every time feminists accuses men of doing something, odds are likely either them or persons associated with them are doing the exact same thing but a lot worse. WHO I'M RIGHT NOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1okpAj7Fhw Basically my former life have been a conflict between this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yz_RQVkvke4 and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFIMeyTK-sU That's, more or less, all about me.
