Trying to read #TheGiftofFear because it is so often recommended in #selfdefense and #martialarts spheres. Gotta say the first two chapters feel a bit like #selfhelp (or b*llsh*t). I'm a skeptic & put off by the individual solutions to systemic problems tho. Seems very bootstrap libertarian American. I'm more skeptic humanist collectivist. (Also Oprah and the CIA finding it useful creeps me tf out, lol.)
