it seems to me if people are using these laws, its pretty hard to compete with them. since good people aren't willing to use these laws, we should still know about them. to guard against and recognize the people using them. ive bought the book, and am going to post these laws. I figure the path to true success is to do the exact opposite. this book wasn't written out of love and a desire to improve the lives of his fellow man. it was written to destroy.

Machiavelli was not really about being evil. It is a thought experiment and written not as a manual, but as entertainment. Like you are saying, to defend yourself from a psychopath, you must first understand one ... which in a way requires a bit of a mental + emotional journey. This is what you get with Machiavelli. It's an awareness manual. One could easily have written it in a boring, academic stance but it wouldn't have had the same punch to it.

Consider the link I gave LinkedForever in the other comment for a real awareness manual (the protocols audio analysis).

It's like pulling teeth, I swear.
I get it, I should be more patient, but holy niggers... it's not like I put a lot of effort in to the perspective I've developed or anything.
