The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life by Mark Manson

Did not finish book. Stopped at 61%.

Enjoyed it at first but the lack of compassion when talking about important topics like mental health, inequalities and race is the reason I DNF’d the book. It is not just as simple as chose what to care about. Telling someone to choose not to feel a certain way in my opinion is toxic positivity. I found the whole tone of the book condescending but was able to look past that until the middle when it took a down hill turn. it’s a shame because there’s some good points in there that are ruined by the lack of awareness and compassion towards others/the reader. Author seems very entitled and it gave the tone that the reader is below him rather than a mutual/equal person
