These books hardly qualify as mental masturbation.

A few words of comment from me, a lowly journeyman
I expressed a similar opinion here: https://www.studioarcanis.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=17963 where I was dubting if Damon Brand is a real person, I still think it's a pen name. He is definitely not an AI program, because GOM started years ago, when AI was dwelling some dark laboratories and was not allowed to go outside to destroy journalism and writing at all.
I didnt read the GOM book Leitch is talking about, but I red a few others and have tried the methods, which work. Better or worse. In my opinion they are not perfect but may be perfected and used as a basis for personal experiments. So, perhaps the Devil is not so black as he is painted. Not great, not terrible
