study Machiavelli to recognize machiavellianism, and destroy those who promote dark triad personality traits – especially under the guise of “the ends justify the means.” seek and destroy the narcissistic, manipulative, remorseless, and callous traits within yourself and you will find the the strongest and most trustworthy friendships. the cutthroat nature of playing thrones is just luck – those “at the top” are just the ones who kept flipping heads on the coin, while others were crushed under the pyramid.
spot on.
