Stop writing about this shit. God fucking dammit, these "books" where author is too stupid to think of a story, and instead directly tries educating a shitload of people about stuff they (or he, for that matter) have no contro whatsoever, are seriously fuckign pathetic.

They're not text books, they're just idiots whining about what they think is wrong with the world.

Ever here that when writing, it's better to "show, not tell?" These books are prime examples of that. The author can't wrap his puny little brain around the idea of teaching an idea through a story, and instead just vomits their entire life's story out onto a stack of papers in an attempt to get you to "see things their way." Do you really want to trust the philosophy of someone who can't even be assed to write correctly?

You're like the book equivalent of someone who only watches movies that have an explosion and nudity in the first five minutes.
