Will it teach me to manipulate people?
No. Defence first: learn the moves so they never work on you. It won't coach anyone to control or deceive.
Is there a community?
Yes: a free Discord with a move every day, advice on your next step and red flags. The Shadow Hands Society ($29 a month, Pro included) unlocks the premium rooms: get your situation read, Decode drills, book club and live voice rooms.
