It's funny you say that because that's not a torus. You should feel embarrassed.

You could literally go to any mathematical modelling software and use the parameterization of the torus to get out that exact same surface. But since you don't know how to do that, you prefer to sink deeper into your moronation.

No it's not. The surface isn't smooth, moron.

My favorite part is when he talks about the Pakistani rape gangs and the inevitable Muslim suicide bomber. But I guess that's all just part and parcel.
Alan Moore's Jerusalem. The torus is a recurring motif. Apparently there's a big invisible torus in the sky that everything is gradually being sucked into.

Does it at least have cool esoteric knowledge contained therein or is the cover just provocative for provocation's sake?
bro there is "cool esoteric knowledge" literally everywhere
the swastika could just be taken as a top down view of 4 symmetrical paths from the core of a torus and around it
Check this escher illustration and imagine you are looking at a torus from the top, with the core directly at the center
i admire people who can devote themselves to an idea for such a long time. dude made this his life's work. i wish i had that kind of passion. but i agree that i've never found any singular work like this compelling, only interesting. the closest i've come to being captured is from reading g spencer-brown, who incidentally was a major inspiration for the above author as well
my brother in christ what made you ask such a question

true enough but then isnt the search obvious, or do you mean fiction?

i believe the torus shape to be a fundamental property of reality and seek to understand it more
How could it be when you can't even make toruses in real life?

Sir, that is clearly a donut.
Had you asked about books featuring a cylinder instead, I would've given several suggestions.
What about books featuring a gomboc?

thank you, i like these kind of explorations but i think these people go about it too explicitly, i believe the path is much subtler
