how come you almost never see laruelle mentioned on /lit/? he seems pretty edgy and meme-able, which as well all know are the most important criteria for a philosopher being popular on /lit/.
anyone here familiar with his work? his project seems really interesting although slightly silly. i've read bits but im still working on getting a decent grasp of D&G before i'm going to get to him.

Too niche, same reason you never see Linkola despite him being extremely simple and memeable.

I've seen a bunch of threads on him here.

I asked Bookchemist about this italian writer and he didn't know him. Do you know Del Giudice? He is quite known since there has been a movie based on his novel "Stade de Wimbledon" made by Mathieu Amalric

Is this for like the GMAT or LSAT?
It would be A. As a result.
I don't know the proper terminology, but it's essentially a cause and effect.
They found a discovery that caused (non-guilt), the effect was making rapid decisions. Implying they didn't have to dwell on it for emotional reasons.

Did anyone really give a proper refutation of Marx's argument in Das Kapital, or did the economic field jump over it with the help of pure ideology and historical circumstance?

A long time ago, and I don't remember where, I read that people have a "favorite" artistic medium and tend to spurn the others.
I know /lit/ SAYS it does, but I'll bet a lot of that is shitposting.
Do you like any medium equal (or more) to books? Or are you a books or nothing kind of guy?

Literature is the endgame, at least for me
I get bored with videogames immediately now, most movies seem trite and overdone, never got into music, listening to some noise produced by college dropouts is hardly appealing.
