The problem with King isn't so much that King is a poor writer. I think Steve has his moments, but is mediocre over all. The problem is that a lot of people think he's great. He isn't. He's a novelist you read on the plane because you left your Kindle at home.
Is this any good? Should I read Evola or Spengler before reading this thing?
Also /altright/ general I guess.
I recommend "Traditionalism for Dummies"
stop reading traditionalist larpers
read junger and mishima and start lifting

I've never heard of that. Who wrote it?
Is the title meant to be ironic? If not it sounds retardedtbh.
Why are all obscurantist philosophers such materialist degenerates? You think that some of them would take the leap of faith but instead they chose to engage homosexuality on a regular basis and decry the obviously spiritual dimension to whiteness and masculinity.

because they are full of shit

Well, continental philosophy becomes mostly anti-metaphysical and anti-theological post-Nietzsche, but, contrary to popular notions, there's actually transcendental layers to Derrida and---
>whiteness and masculinity.
Oh, nvm.
do I actually have to read the Illiad before I can read Plato before I can read Nietzche before I can read Stirner or is that a meme?
I really want to become a Stirnerite but someone told me it would only make me into an edgy faggot if I don't start with other philosophy
>>9181677
Why do you want to go in with the goal of becoming a 'Stirnerite'?
This isn't team sports. You should read philosophy to help form your own ideas, and if your view on life somehow lines up with another philosopher than maybe you can identify with them.
>>9181693
Stirerites rule bro I don't want to form my own ideas I want to become a stirnerite
bump stirnerites rule!
Aren't novels necessarily realistic? The whole reason Don Quixote is considered the first novel is that it turns away from the 'unrealistic' tropes of knightly romances and grounds itself in the actual daily life of the Don and those around him.
So how can you have a fantasy novel, or a science fiction novel? It's an oxymoron.
>>9181313
Wat? no, that doesn't make sense from any angle
>>9181313
Define novel

A body of knowledge (BOK or BoK) is the complete set of concepts, terms and activities that make up a professional domain, as defined by the relevant learned society or professional association. It is a type of knowledge representation by any knowledge organization.

MODS delete this NON-LITERATURE THREAD immediately.
Has there been any philosophic attempts to theorize about the eradication of what can be considered worthless men, i.e. akin to those who browse /r9k/.
I'd like to read a treatise on how we're supposed to deal with disposable 'men' who contribute nothing and qua their vileness (dumb and can't reproduce, physically and aesthetically inferior) simply cannot be integrated into society because they possess nothing of worth. Or how they are such an affront to basic decency that they pollute it
even the mentally retarded can bag groceries or pick berries. I'm pretty sure even most of /r9k/'s denizens could qualify for military service. a truly detestable person like you describe would be a homeless person if not for his family providing for him.
also dude entertainment cartridges lmao

I hate 4chan. You make something like this that has a genuinely positive message and corrupt it.
I know you probably get threads like this all the time but I need your help /lit/. I've been boning this cute blond girl for a couple weeks, and everything was going well until she started talking about books. At first she would just talk about what books she liked, but then she started asking me what books I liked. I've never really read a whole lot except when I had to for school so it was really hard for me to fake. Eventually she found out I haven't read anything by Aristotle or some Greek guy like that and got super pissed about dating somebody whose "iliterate". So it would really mean a whole lot to me if you guys could tell me some important books to read to become more literary. I've already been told to read the odyssey, the Iliad, and the gospels (the parts of the bible about jesus) because their really important.
(sorry about the long story I just want you to know the know the pain I go through because Im a retard)
tell her books r gay and then proceed to belittle her for reading every time she picks up a book
read the goddamn sticky
>>9180435
I would do that, but I really think becoming more literary would make me a more well-rounded person overall
okay i want to be lit. i've already read pic related and struggled lightly with them both, but ultimately they were enjoyable. where do i go from here? is DFW a meme? don't want to get lost in a sea of bad books
What about those?
>>9180412
i don't want to be mediocre i want to be smart please help
i am a huge faggot btw just asking for charity
You start from pretty stupid premise.
btw dont jump from plato straight to joyce. Dable in greek longer, read some horace, read bible, read short stories as they are better than novels. Try different things, and take your time
