Any book that teaches you how to talk to people and form and maintain relationships and get positive outcomes out of interactions?Explained as if you were an alien.
>>25272240Owen Cook on YouTube, he’s an autist whose special interest was socialising
It's needy to have that goal, and anyway, you can't learn it from a book, you learn by doing, like the guitar.I recommend The Courage to Be Disliked.
>>25272298This is what the consequences of oversocialization look like
>>25272304That guy is still grifting?>>25272240There isn't much to explain. It's all about very small facual movements, your voice, your timing. If you're an actual autist, you will never learn this.
>>25272304Regardless of any criticism it will work for OP, more than any book
>>25272652I actually think Owen Cook's stuff is very damaging, some of the worst PUA content ever made.At least other grifters just give you shallow techniques, Cook turns you into a weirdo on a more fundamental level.
>>25272777As an autistic shut in I used his stuff to find self confidence and end up balls deep in a stripper, along with having the option to dominate group settings when needed.
>>25272786He also teaches the praxis of a lot of the topics covered here, literally how to use mystical theology to get laid among other more wholesome things. I’m shocked he’s not more popular
>>25272790These things shouldn't be mixed like that. Sex might be compatible with a spiritual life, but he creates a very corrupted form of pseudo spirituality enabling shallow relationships, materialism (in the sense of money, not atoms) domination etc.It's the kind of shallow, vaguely spiritual, capitalist ideology that emerged in the US a while ago, it was very popular with older millenials.
>>25272810Yes he’s against asceticism and ashrams and thinks any spiritual gains should be tested in the world, which is currently capitalist society
>>25272811There is a lot of space between asceticism and banging strippers. You can also test your spiritual gains in a capitalist society without becoming greedy yourself.
>>25272240I always imagined pragmatics would be useful for autists.
>>25272825It will put them in their head too much, autists already mask
>>25272824Sure, my point is the tools are powerful enough to apply them to what you desire.
>>25272304This is who you want to be? This is a sad existence to me.
>>25272240surely what you're asking for is just: good fiction. i recommend the novels and stories of dh lawrence and henry james.good fiction sparks your sense of imagination for what strange ripples can pass across the surface of an encounter, what surprising structures of feeling and meaning can be collaboratively built or uncovered through speech.all self-help books are less than worthless, they trap you forever in the gloomy windowless labyrinth that is the self-help world. it's a videogame world, horrible. i don't care if you're 'an autist'. autistic people are told that they're built for nothing but a videogame world, but that's just an insidious falsehood.
I read pic related and it didn't teach me how to socialize better, but it made me so disgusted with normalfags that I realized I want nothing to do with them at all, much less "succeed" in their stupid social games.
>>25272240This book synthesizes all the useful stuff from various social fields into 8 principles.
>>25272240If you really are autistic - your "natural" face/body language converter is broken. You can "build" a workaround with pattern recognition skill and a lot of passive observations combined with a lot of active analysis of combinations of mimics + body language + emotions intended to be shown by observed people + actual state of that people (and good luck figuring that one out) + current social situations (i.e. relationships between all people you observe AND also people this observed people talk and think about) - and as a result you'll receive semi-automatic, incredibly mentally taxing to use, incomplete and often incorrect (especially when applied to people you hadn't observed yet) "table of references". If somehow you had been doing it consciously since, say, early school years, you just might get a crutch good enough to manipulate people a bit - but not to get that joy normal people apparently have when they communicate with other normal people (and you look like to them either as a stone statue or as a "death to all epileptics" tv screen depending on if you had already set "poker-face" as your default facial expression or if you are oblivious enough).Embrace animism-through-solipsism, everything has a soul, a mind and emotions as long as you allow it in your head.If you're not autistic - keep communicating with highest (socially) people available (you'll learn automatically) and get ripped.
>>25272905About half-way in this book. So far the most important concepts are {normalfags have social "truth", defined by current views of current authority} and {social "truth" is more important for normalfags, than actual truth}. Both this concepts combined suddenly gave me full understanding of "fashion" and why i hate it and other things like "outdated" - it is literally dropping one's integrity because of some emotional "mind control" - which i hate with passion along with "brain washing", "memory wiping" and other atrocious things of the same persuasion.
Damn, this Owen Cook guy has one aspect of what Guénon says Antichrist is, which is that he's a parody of spirituality.
>>25272790>how to use mystical theology to get laidI don't believe you
>>25272240look at the discussion of oversocialization in this thread >>25268433
>>25272790>how to use mystical theology to get laidhas anyone ever been far even as triedi was going to say everyone knows that but i dont know if, has anyone really been far as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
>>25272240become interesting doesnt work because women are vapid and companies only hire jeets
>>25273239the punishment for sin is that the restraining grace is withdrawn and the sin is allowed to reach its logical conclusion. because america refused to abandon apostasy after the fag parades and kid choppers, now we have to endure mechanical satanism
>>25273239(1) pastor says that divorce is unacceptable, unless, obviously, if the husband is abusive(2) mommy gets a restraining order to bias the antifamily court into giving her full custody(3) mommy tells baby that daddy isnt calling because daddy is abusive. baby is like 2 and wonders if daddy was eaten by a bear(4) the children who never had a father to teach them that honor is the reward for truth go on youtube to hear that the path to success is to worship satan

>>25272240>positive outcomes out of interactions?I'm the wrong person to ask about that haha, 43 year old elder autist here and professional cynic. It doesn't get better honestly. Just learn how to manipulate people to get what you want. That goes double for women, who are always conspiring against your penis as a sperg.
>>25273239>Le GuenonWhy do people worship this deranged French zutt here is beyond me.
>>25273250Well I’m not going to convince you, you can find out yourself or not
>>25272240Read Liel Lowndes' How To Talk To Anyone. It will blackpill you but leave you with the tools to navigate life amongst normies.
How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale CarnegieMight not be for ay lmaos though.
