i feel that this is a pretty good book, and if you have evil in your heart anything you read can be used for evil desires. if you have a kind heart and want better for yourself it can help you. its all about how you interpret things, if you first thoughts are always negative well then you can kinda figure out what type of person you are.
This book is a manual on how to be a rotten person. There are far better books on this topic. I hope nobody is followng this crap. I have been in positions of authority most of my adult life and these laws are selfish and evil.
I understand your concern for teaching selfish and evil laws and how this book could make someone a "rotton person" but 48 laws was written for individuals who don't know anything about power. In the free market, you must compete for things: women, money, & authority. Thus, people who want to hold a prominent position in life need to know how deal with deception and other prominent people. If it's ANYONE'S intention to manipulate power then they should read The Prince, not 48 laws.
There are a few of the laws missing but it is easy to find them elsewhere. Some of them seem to contradict but the important thing is to know when to use each one.
Read this book: "A People's History of The United States" if you think I am lying or uninformed. Mr(s). watisthis99- I am not arguing with you just offering some good literature. My agenda is specifically to make people aware of hidden truth. Fortunately there are reporters (on NPR) and writers that agree with me and my agenda.
The Intinerary of a Psychopath...to subscribe to this as a whole one needs to be paranoid, mistrusting and delusional...the Lunatics are taking over the asylum.
@Hedsta The reason why we need to understand these is because lunatics have been running the asylum for most of human history. This is just fact. Almost every true story of our development has been one of the wealthy and powerful murdering or severely limiting the freedoms of the poor. Even the story of how bananas got to be on American tables is one of murder, enslavement and political corruption.
@amishnation - I agree - the 48 Laws can also be used as a safety guide re: staying one step ahead...I guess, like most things, it depends how you look at it..for me what is real is that the Lunatics have taken over the asylum...things are going to get real interesting over the next 100 years
@amishnation Your comment has 'hidden agenda' written all over it. Good thing you're only misinforming everyone and don't really have any evidence to support anything you've just said.
Law 48 is extremely helpful. Just accept the fact that nothing is fixed and the world is changing constantly. Never bet on stability or lasting order. Plus, your enemies have nothing to grasp when you are fluid like water. If you're fluid enough, you can adjust to anything.
The matrix is a sytem Neo; that system is our enemy; when your inside you look around what do you see? businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save but until we do these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. HA!!
What poppycock! There is only one law of power and that is...'Be Fandango Birtwhistle, criminal mastermind and sex typhoon'. I am the beautiful King while the rest of you are merely ugly pawns in the chess game of my life. Accept your inferiority, buffoons!
the 48 laws of power? thats was just 48 ways to be spiteful, manipulative and tread on your fellow man for the attainment of 'power' which seems to be a postion in which you can control others for your own selfish gain. i'll stick to the belief in myself and the one universal mind thanks.
This book has alot of usefull ways to manipulate, specially when your in prison. with this book and the art of war. You dont have to move a finger of violence, all you got to do its say it, and it shall be done. Ofcourse make sure you understand this books of great knoledge, by never stop studing this books. Just beware if you dont used this right and learn to inprovise. It will back fire, ive seen it.
Everyone's reality is different. You may believe in justice. Someone else may believe only in love. Some may believe life is hell. Some may believe life is a blessing.
These are biased opinions of reality. The truth is that reality is neutral. It's not good or bad. It doesn't want you to be happy or sad. And these laws comes from the neutral reality. Seeing things as they truly are. You can use them or not. But don't condemn them.
@razvanrogozb2b You take on a nihilistic point of view, something of which I find disturbing because it hasn't been confronted. There is no doubt that some of the laws in this book are against our innate moral judgment, we'd find using them to benefit ourselves a bit against our nature. So no, not everyone's reality is different, there's clearly a moral foundation; there's just not an objective foundation, probably because there isn't one or doesn't have to be.
The funny thing is that these things are only have truths and have been proven so. People who think this is the only way are usaully very limited and live in a deep world of fallacy. It is good to know these "laws of power" which are really only 2ndary character or personality traits. Many people say that people like Cicero are wrong look at how they turned up. However they fail to realize that machiavelli ended up simillarly politically. Both were very influencial men. fallacy is funny.
the book took the political elements of that book, the price, and a few others I can't name off the top of my head and put the ideas that suited politics into one book called the 48 laws of power.
This sounds like a manual to become a politician. #3 conceal your intentions. #4 say less than is necessary. #5 so much depends on reputation, etc. etc.
Its only been 500 years or so since most of humanity lived in grass huts.Yes.Stone structures were made.But not for you.For priests and elites.There are really 49 lor even 51 laws of power.You will forever be our slaves.Get used to it.
@THX1146 You believe yourself the lion and that everyone should peacefully bow down before you. But I question what a person like this thinks when they meet someone else who believes themself a lion. Or can they even recognize it?
@THX1146 Slave? Through those slaves, there is someone waiting to cut your head, to shoot you, or even to use you and take over you. You don't know when a lion is going to strike, or if you are talking with one right now. Gosh! Lions even kill others that are in their path to power. Either way, when it happens, you will be trapped and will be in the shadows while the other will outshine.
@RyanKHS06 They all do, its the only way to get to the top, without being pulled back down, but once you are up there, everyone else who matters are still at the bottom of the pyramid, no matter if they see people as equals, its just not going to work out like that
@Dimenchemist Power is nothing more than a metaphysical abstraction. The universe will not care if you are the ruler of humanity. The real question is what will bring you closer to serenity and happiness? Will it be the path of the moral law or the path of power? The answer is not as simple as one might think.
@08infidel If that were true we'd have long killed ourselves. Power is a behavioral tumor, a relic from our primate genes, it cannot exist without moral people providing the productive and creative backbone of the society.
@DonVoghano Not necesarily. People that have used power still need others to accomplish their goals. My statement is true, just look all the war's, mass killing,lust for more land,money, and other "bounty" . Even the concept of moral law has been twisted many times throughout history for those that know how to use it to accomplish their power lust. Dont get me wrong, I wish the world could live in peace and harmony.
@08infidel The world probably can never see peace and harmony: they are not part of nature, it would seem. And yet a trend of resistance to abuse and war is observable throughout history, as well as constant attempts to erode and amend power constructs towards more moral objectives. Look at history from the other end: wars are circumscribed events, most people in all times and places have found their niches of moral existence and carved out their peace - they just did not make the history books.
I like how the author misspells when he says: Never appear to perfect. Supposed to be: Never appear too perfect! Did you do that on purpose? Nice touch.
Even 50 Cent said he thought this book was kinda evil. He then said afterwards you will need to read the Bible after. He chuckle as he said it though.
@DRUNKENRAMBLE written by the priests and changed alot through time to control the religous sectors, its so much easier to control the masses if u seperate them in to large groups and give each group their heros and celbrititys then when the time comes you can move them to their death kinda of like what a shepard does. Sheeple.
Law 49: Power corrupts all that it touches. Never forget this. Law 50: Those in power are not immortal, know when to bow out while you still have your head.
seeking power over others is weakness in ones self... the most powerful people don't have the need to have power over others they just do... grow up you clown ass queers and get some morals... quit suppressing your consciousness.....
when the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace
-o wait did i break a rule of his when it come's to moral's....ya i did but it doesn't matter goes power trips don't know shit when it comes to the real picture of life
These laws are for those who want to be in profession of politics or mafia! I don't believe this is applicable to common people on the street. It would be devastating if everyone follows this.
This book shows the wickedness of the ruling elites. IF one reads the orginal 48 laws. It is of peace and love and uplifting oneself through postive actions.
ODDS ARE IF U KNEW ENOUGH TO LOOK THIS UP, U KNOW PEOPLE WOULD WIG THE FUCK OUT AROUND U, IF THEY KNEW U MANIPULATED THEM WITH THESE 48 GUID3LINES. =) HAPPY HUNTING.
@avosso its used by elite families and presidents for example they are satanic. See my channel for hundreds of videos on several topics including illuminati, freemasons and satanism.
These all,..are good If WE DONT GO ONE LAYER DEEPER THAT THER WE WILL FIND THAT THE SOCIETY MADE US COMPETITIVE IN THAT WAY THAT WE AHVE RULES NOW....
What did Machiavelli say about people in power? What type of person can rule and cannot rule? This book is a manifestation of those personality traits fit to rule. The "oh my god this book is so mean" approach really makes you seem insignificant. What luck for leaders that men do not think.

@CranialDestruction i get exactly what u mean. although this book sounds cruel in SOME ways to me (and maybe in more or every way to others), i think this serves as a great strategy for power, and people will eventually honor u or people who try to outsmart u will be outsmarted right when they thought they had u. although i think this way i dont feel bad that i am applying this to my life to attack my opponents but not to abuse. u feel me?
Lots of people are catching on these laws. they don't work anymore. if anyone who reads it, they're only reading it to arm themselves of others who are practicing it. (usually the weak and insecure) / aka the minorities. The majority now reads this too because they are scared the minority are going to take over the world. I already memorized the book and this book made me realize all my friends aren't really friends at all.
@damthatriver09 Nice one there. You've proven what you truly are: the weak. If you believe your friends aren't your friends because of this book, obviously you're the weak and insecure. Why would you remember such a book? It's not a good book to live OR to memorize as you have done.
You'd be better had you not read the book at all. It's not to be read by weak and insecure people like you.
@damthatriver09 people in prision generally read books like this because some actually run company like organizations. Not overthrow your albino ass. Nature will do that if your not carefully
than ask an zebra to built a bridge over the river I COULD TAKE THIS DECISION TO KILL 1 FOR SAVING 1000 TELL ME IF I M WRONG WOULD YOU KILL 1000 TO SAVE 1 ?? I GUESS YOU ANSWERED BECAUSE YOU HAVE FILINGS SO YOU ARE A HUMAN BEING TOO NOT JUST ANY FORM OF LIFE
@petrecristian35 Beavers build dams. Hell, even ants create and infrastructure. Just because we're more advanced than animals, doesn't mean we don't share our basic survival instincts. I'd gladly kill one to save a thousand, or kill a thousand to save a million. These laws are how you get stuff done. Hitler, terrible man: but a great politician. Whether he used his actions for good or bad, he had power. These are laws for power; not for life. Nothings black or white. Even God killed in the bible
@azzameen Power is no longer about survival, our instinct to dominate has largely outgrown its biological niche. Now it's just the deep motive for the systematic abuse of humanity and the life-support systems that keep mankind alive. It brings little happiness to those who harness it, it brings untold misery to those who take it and it stunts the free development of beauty and knowledge.
actually these laws are considered bad by normal people. Only psycho and sociopaths behave this way. I would advise you to check that out. This book is a follow through of Machiavelli's critique of Cicero. In fact in the book and the critique he never intended for the common person to act this way. It was not written for them but the one of the most ruthless emergent rulers in his country’s history to courier favor. This behavior if practiced by everyone can destroy a state.

Even 50 Cent said he thought this book was kinda evil. He then said afterwards you will need to read the Bible after. He chuckle as he said it though.

@DRUNKENRAMBLE written by the priests and changed alot through time to control the religous sectors, its so much easier to control the masses if u seperate them in to large groups and give each group their heros and celbrititys then when the time comes you can move them to their death kinda of like what a shepard does. Sheeple.

To all who are sheep out there.
Live with love and peace. Yet learn these laws, not to live by them, but to recognize the tactics of the wolves when they come out to prey.
A sheep that can think like a wolf is a potent beast indeed.

These laws are for those who want to be in profession of politics or mafia! I don't believe this is applicable to common people on the street. It would be devastating if everyone follows this.

This book shows the wickedness of the ruling elites. IF one reads the orginal 48 laws. It is of peace and love and uplifting oneself through postive actions.

What did Machiavelli say about people in power? What type of person can rule and cannot rule? This book is a manifestation of those personality traits fit to rule. The "oh my god this book is so mean" approach really makes you seem insignificant. What luck for leaders that men do not think.

@CranialDestruction i get exactly what u mean. although this book sounds cruel in SOME ways to me (and maybe in more or every way to others), i think this serves as a great strategy for power, and people will eventually honor u or people who try to outsmart u will be outsmarted right when they thought they had u. although i think this way i dont feel bad that i am applying this to my life to attack my opponents but not to abuse. u feel me?

Lots of people are catching on these laws. they don't work anymore. if anyone who reads it, they're only reading it to arm themselves of others who are practicing it. (usually the weak and insecure) / aka the minorities. The majority now reads this too because they are scared the minority are going to take over the world. I already memorized the book and this book made me realize all my friends aren't really friends at all.
damthatriver09 1 year ago
@damthatriver09 Nice one there. You've proven what you truly are: the weak. If you believe your friends aren't your friends because of this book, obviously you're the weak and insecure. Why would you remember such a book? It's not a good book to live OR to memorize as you have done.
You'd be better had you not read the book at all. It's not to be read by weak and insecure people like you.

@petrecristian35 Beavers build dams. Hell, even ants create and infrastructure. Just because we're more advanced than animals, doesn't mean we don't share our basic survival instincts. I'd gladly kill one to save a thousand, or kill a thousand to save a million. These laws are how you get stuff done. Hitler, terrible man: but a great politician. Whether he used his actions for good or bad, he had power. These are laws for power; not for life. Nothings black or white. Even God killed in the bible
azzameen 1 year ago 19
@azzameen Power is no longer about survival, our instinct to dominate has largely outgrown its biological niche. Now it's just the deep motive for the systematic abuse of humanity and the life-support systems that keep mankind alive. It brings little happiness to those who harness it, it brings untold misery to those who take it and it stunts the free development of beauty and knowledge.

actually these laws are considered bad by normal people. Only psycho and sociopaths behave this way. I would advise you to check that out. This book is a follow through of Machiavelli's critique of Cicero. In fact in the book and the critique he never intended for the common person to act this way. It was not written for them but the one of the most ruthless emergent rulers in his country’s history to courier favor. This behavior if practiced by everyone can destroy a state.
