- Family aren't those who share your blood by default. You choose who to trust in based on who you can actually trust to have your back when the shit hits the fan.
- 99.9% of all people are shitheads. They do not deserve respect by default.
- Totalitarianism as well as democracy are stupid ideas, since people are shitheads who can't tie their own shoelaces. Choose a group of individuals like you and work for your mutual benefit as brothers.
-Be healthy and true to yourself in mind, body and soul. Do not deny who you are, work constantly to make yourself sharper and more knowledgeable as well as physically fit and skillful.
- Life won't give you any free tickets, you must pry everything from the hands of others who most of the time work towards other ends than you.
- Meekness is seldom rewarded. Be kind and generous to those who do not go against you, and those who help further your goals. Crush those who oppose you, disregard them and discard them.
- People are just human, and you can be stronger and meaner than they can ever hope to be as long as you put your mind to it. Fear none. Mental and physical brutality can take you anywhere as long as you are past the point of constitution where only you dictates where the boundaries of your personal strength ends.
-Don't let life scare you into submission. Scare people instead. Hammer them to either leave you alone or further your ends. Shape them by your will.
- Treat your closest friends better than yourself, and expect nothing less in return.
- Life is pretty worthless without material wealth as well as feelings of all sorts. You can't really live a good life without either. It's only in romantic movies and idealistic, pointless arguments where you actually have to choose between the two, when in reality having one means that acquiring the other will be easier.
- It is better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.
- Treat yourself as the highest authority and only abide by what you personally believe in.
- Take what you want out of life, as long as doing so won't conflict with those you love and respect as well as your morality.
- This might seem like anti-social behavior, but in reality I just want to be left alone to do what I want with who I want and live the life I need.
- Having a set of codes to live by is essential. If you share my beliefs, you are my brother as long as you respect me.
- Making smart decisions and surviving the game is priority two, but don't ever betray the trust of your brothers even if it will land you in a world of shit and pain. That is priority one.

The bolded text are things I agree on and the rest I disagree on.
I wholely disagree with assumming that 99.9% of people don't deserve respect because I happen to think their shithead. Alot of people are only interested in further developing what they think is important. In fact you're a perfect example of this and assuming that people have to prove themselves to you to earn your respect is counter productive. Intuitively it is easier to assume that everyone are shitheads that don't deserve respect, but it is in your best interest to seek point of views that don't neccessarilly correlate to your point of views as a way to develop yourself. Having yourself surrounded by like minded individual is easier, but will hurt you in the long run.
Every person has something that you can learn because people filter informations differently because of different life experiences which heavily affect that person's point of views. This is why I can't go around spitting bullshit that I'm better than 99.9% of the people and they should have to prove themselves to me first before I respect them. I respect everyone as a general rule until they prove that they don't deserve it.
I hate manipulating people and I hate being manipulated by people. As a matter of fact, I'am very good at manipulating people when I was a younger and have only come to realized this revelation recently. It's no wonder I always get what I want which I have always attributed to luck until I took a closer look at my interactions with other people (also when I read some NLP books which define some of the stuff I do naturally, such as creating rapport with people). Of course, manipulating and understanding people are two different matters (I'm still working on the understanding part). But, forcing my will to someone else is not what I like doing...
I would write more, but I'm getting bored of trying to pull out ideas that I have contemplated in the past and it's already long as it is.
I just realized that I don't agree with alot of the things on your list (k almost all of it), but that doesn't mean we can't still be bros.
