    I always felt The Prince was meant to protect people by helping them understand how people manipulate others.

      Even in the movie the prince wanted Ariel to get her voice back he didn’t just want a goth chick if she was secretly a fat aquatic sorceress embodying the chaotic menopausal feminine

      I don't know if machiavelli meant it that way but it definitely can be, regardless of his intentions
      And if people did see it (machiavellianism) in the politicians, the world would be a much better place by now

    • @allenandrews2380
      @allenandrews2380 9 месяцев назад +5

      48 laws of power is often misinterpreted as a guide to " being a self serving manipulator" as well. But that author intended to enlighten with it as well.

      ​@allenandrews2380 you haven't read the book if you don't think it wasn't meant as a guide, read just the first law, notice how it's not enlightening the reader to be weary of people who never outshine their master and how it's in an instructional perspective (if you're referring to Robert's interview, you'll have to read his other book "the laws of human nature" to understand why he said that in that clip)

We're planning to release his "Enchiridion" in video format soon-it's a fantastic short-ish introduction to stoicism, while "Discourses" would probably work well in book format.

    Chapter 23 “Beware of brown-nosers” 😉.
    “Flattery is like a drug; addictive and dangerous.”
    The part about being weary of flatterers, amongst your advisors and your innermost circle. Warrants a quick review of the way he’s chosen to introduce this “gift” to the next successor of the De Medici lineage. 🧐🐍(I can’t remember where this is explained, I assume I didn’t pay attention when I’d heard, what I’ve just now understood.)
    Then again, seldom does such an adjective and noun originate from one’s name, without earning it.
    IMO😅!!

    2:20 Possibly one of the most untrue statements in history, right at the start
    The thing about The Prince is it's not terribly complicated, it's mostly just presented in the most pretentious way imaginable, and lies to your face about not doing so.
    It's like how his book called "The Art of War" is not really about war at all and is basically just him saying "look at all these cool people I hang out with!" then proceeding to tediously recall a conversation between a bunch of characters from Assassin's Creed 2 masturbating to how cool the Romans used to be in somebody's back garden.
