Honestly more prophetic than originally expected, and I'd seen passages of it here before.

It's a little more generous with the assumption of values for the third worlders than anyone here would be, but not by much. And much harsher against the suicidally empathetic in Europe and America. I consider that a positive

Not exactly a happy story, but reality seldom is

Solid 10/10. Cannot recommend enough. Everyone should read it

Most of the book was just repeating "don't build the torment engine" over and over again in different ways. Aka a bunch of different Europeans with maladapted empathy and the results of that decision tree. I'm already there. But it did give me a blueprint for a few different types of looser thinking that I can look for in other arguments
