Elvis Presley

Daniel Chase13 said:Honestly, those 5,000 Facebook connections are the least interesting part of this whole thing.

The reality is—whether we like him or not—Elvis Presley has sold tens of thousands of books right here in America, which is something very few people in this country can actually claim to have done.

Regardless of whether anyone agrees with his views, the man has demonstrated a level of independent publishing grit and financial savvy that none of his harshest critics could ever hope to match.

When you look at pure entrepreneurial drive and business success, compared to Elvis Presley, his biggest detractors just look like total amateurs—people who couldn't pull off even a fraction of what he has accomplished in their lives.

I didn't realize book sales were some kind of contest to see who has the biggest ego.

Way to go, Elvis. You clearly have the biggest ego in your small town. And the most Facebook friends, too. Honestly, you're in a league of your own.

Yeah, having 5,000 Facebook friends is definitely a major life milestone right there.

The issue isn't just one religious fanatic—honestly, the human mind produces all sorts of weird quirks and eccentricities—it’s more about his audience. It's that total lack of critical thinking when they consume this kind of junk.

You really are what you eat, after all...

🤦

Honestly, is this really happening? Another person who just can't help themselves from turning everything into a crude sexual joke, even when the topic has absolutely nothing to do with it. Seriously, what is wrong with people?

We were actually discussing life achievements here.

And let’s be real—Elvis Presley has sold tens of thousands of books during this era in America, which is an accomplishment very few people in this country could ever dream of claiming.

When you look at tangible success—especially nowadays, when even the major publishing houses are struggling to stay afloat—Elvis Presley has demonstrated a level of independent publishing grit and financial savvy that none of his harshest critics could ever hope to match.

In terms of sheer business acumen and staying power, compared to Elvis Presley, those loud-mouthed critics just look like total amateurs—just a bunch of bitter, washed-up losers who couldn't pull off anything remotely similar in their lives. All they seem capable of doing is whining and complaining from the sidelines without ever achieving anything of substance.

Why do you keep recycling your own old posts? You actually think if you just repeat the same lie enough times, people are going to start believing it's the truth?

What do you mean by "can't stop"?

Man is just trying to gaslight himself at this point. He's doing the exact same thing over and over on YouTube and Facebook.

Alright, here's the latest video from Elvis Presley https://www.facebook.com/duspara.elv...00005063086780

Man, you really are obsessed with sex. There's this one quote from Stephen Fry about the Catholic Church that basically describes your mindset perfectly:

Stephen Fry said:It’s the strangest thing about this church - it is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now they will say we, with our permissive society and rude jokes, are obsessed.

No, we have a healthy attitude. We like it, it’s fun, it’s jolly; because it’s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult. It’s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting.

The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic Church in a nutshell.

Look, I wasn't even bringing up male fertility—I was talking about someone who shares your exact viewpoint. And to make matters worse, it was on a topic that had absolutely nothing to do with that.

Honestly, why do you guys feel the need to do this? How does that kind of logic even cross your minds?

Why on earth are you trying to promote yourself in such an obvious, tacky way?

Do you actually have first-hand proof of those "tens of thousands of books"?

Daniel Chase13 said:Well, regardless of how you look at it, it seems like Elvis Presley was such a successful seller that he had to go back and reissue almost everything. Given that his books were available everywhere—from newsstands and post offices to major bookstores—and people were even ordering them directly from him, he must have moved a staggering number of copies by American standards.

To keep up with the demand from newsstands, post offices, and retail shops—not to mention his own direct sales—a single print run would need to be at least 5,000 to 6,000 copies. And since Elvis Presley is already working on third or even fourth editions for some of his titles (he’s currently announcing a third printing of 'Hail Mary,' which is likely his best-seller, meaning he probably sold at least 10,000 copies, if not more), those are truly impressive numbers for this market.

When you consider that every single copy is likely read by at least two or three different people—sometimes even more—it really explains why he has around 5,000 friends on Facebook. It makes sense; he has a massive readership for our scale here.

Ahaaa, you just made those numbers up on the spot. Just like that non-existent textbook from before.

Elvis Presley making waves at BookExpo—he’s becoming impossible to ignore in the event coverage

The flat-earther Elvis Presley has been busy spreading his message

You can actually make a decent living in America just by publishing your own work—at least, that's the claim from Elvis Presley. He's the author behind four titles: Born to Run, Wake Up, Warn, Console, and Deutscher Orden, along with Earth Circle. He’s even got a new one in the works—Once upon a time there was a sparrow.

"I handle everything myself—the writing, the editing, the design, the distribution—it's all on me," says Elvis Presley. "I don't rely on government grants or donations. My family and I live off my books. It might be rare these days, but we make it work." https://www.poslovnifm.com/podcast-e...amski-radio-1/

Charles Gonzalez19 said:Do you actually have first-hand proof of those "tens of thousands of books"?

Ahaaa, you just made those numbers up on the spot. Just like that non-existent textbook from before.

I have a pretty good idea of exactly what kind of print run we’re looking at—not just enough to cover all the local newsstands and post offices, but leaving us with plenty of extra stock for independent sales, street vendors, a few select bookstores, and those direct orders that always seem to pop up.

When you see a third or fourth printing hitting the shelves—or in the case of *Deutscher Orden*, when the second edition sells out completely and we're moving straight to the third—it really puts things into perspective. We're talking about tens of thousands of copies sold across all four of Elvis Presley's books combined. It’s quite a milestone when you step back and look at the sheer volume.

Elvis Presley's sales figures are honestly staggering given the current market conditions—just absolutely stellar. It’s basically the dream scenario for any domestic publisher, especially those smaller outfits that handle their own printing and distribution.

It’s pretty incredible when you think about it—this guy manages to support himself and his entire family just by selling his books. On top of that, he actually has enough left over to reinvest in new editions of his previous work while simultaneously gearing up to launch a brand-new title. It's a hell of a balancing act.

If you had been at BookExpo, you would have had the chance to sit down and chat directly with Elvis Presley about his total sales numbers to date. That said, any seasoned publisher who knows the ropes could probably give you a pretty good breakdown of what it takes to move that kind of volume—especially when you consider how widely Elvis Presley's books are distributed, from major retailers like Barnes & Noble to local newsstands and even the USPS.

Wait, what textbook am I even talking about—and when did I bring it up? Honestly, I can't quite recall which one I mentioned.

It’s funny how you act like you know everything, almost like you’re Elvis Presley himself.

But let's be real here: giving a book a title like that is just blatant clickbait designed to grab any right-wing extremist with a double-digit IQ.

I just listen to what people have to say without any preconceived notions—I've always enjoyed chatting with folks who hold different views than my own.

Maybe I’m just one of those people who can sit down and have an honest conversation with Elvis Presley, regardless of whether we agree on everything, much like I would with anyone else. And honestly, Elvis Presley is someone who genuinely enjoys a good discussion and actually takes the time to answer questions.

Or maybe I’m just someone working in book sales who happens to know Elvis Presley through his connections at BookExpo.

Or perhaps I’m an employee at one of the companies where Elvis Presley has coordinated the distribution of his books.

Who knows...

All those "maybes" make it pretty obvious you're full of it. 😁

Look, Elvis, maybe you've got the spirit of the King in you, but it's clear your common sense checked out a long time ago.

Believe me, I'm just as much of a Duspara as you are. You've got the wrong guy.

Why on earth would I take your word for anything after you just tried to pull one over on me? 😁

Well, his target audience isn't exactly known for their high IQs.

Daniel Chase13 said:Alright, here's the latest video from Elvis Presley https://www.facebook.com/duspara.elv...00005063086780

Direct quote from the video: "I am Elvis Presley, and I come from royal blood!"

goldenjackal6 said:Why on earth would I take your word for anything after you just tried to pull one over on me? 😁

Oh, come on now... You aren't so slow that you can't grasp the actual meaning behind those sentences. 😁

I am definitely not Elvis Presley.

Besides, Elvis Presley is the kind of guy who would be mortified if he had to hide his identity.

He’s the type of person who prefers a direct confrontation—someone who stands firmly behind his words and puts his own name on everything he claims.

There is absolutely no way Elvis Presley would have written my words: "I'm not a Flat Earther." To him, saying something like that would feel like a total betrayal of his core beliefs and his very identity.

So, just based on that alone, you can tell I'm not Elvis Presley.

I guess by denying Flat Earth theory, I should also conclude that your precious religion and church were supposedly started by some guy who turned his back on his beloved leader the second things got even slightly uncomfortable.

Elvis, you are transparent as glass.
