i dont know but trolling the academy is probably the smartest thing he's done in years. it's fucking dumb, but his art is dumber

You know, I've always hated Bob Dylan, but I could never figure out why I hated him. Well, now I come to find out, the man is Jewish! Crazy, right?

>Anything good coming out of indonesia

That country should be nuked

I agree with this on principle OP, but there is usually some good books that come out of bad situations and suffering, of which indonesia is a top exporter. It may be that they are suffering from the whole "cant write good books as a muslim for fear of death" thing

one of my friends is an american that grew up in indonesia because his parents are missionaries

there is literally nothing good in indonesia

it doesn't deserve an acronym, that's what we think. get this female written trash outta here, punkass.

I read this like 9 years ago in high school. Really, really disliked it. Might feel different about it now.

Actual trash. I felt dumber having read it.
has a good book even come out of the "poor Latinx in America" genre?

one people won't mention is Kant, who is a pre-req for all modern philosophy, but many people like to skip to get to the cool stuff. but Land makes direct use of Kant and you should too

There is a massive stigma against anything you could possibly post.

genre fiction is held in low regard because in most cases genre fiction is shit
not all of it, but most of it

They have no imaginative power, just a desire to participate in something someone else has considered worthwhile.

Because /lit/ are for the vast majority existentialist atheists (or "Atheist/Post-Christians") and Lacans approach to the mind incorporates these presuppositions into a coherent framework for understanding the mind and desire.
Most critics who simply dismiss him outright I have found just simply have not had the ability or willingness to actually engage with his work at all so their dismissals are meaningless.

He viewed himself as a continuation of Freud's work and the exact differences between them are rather complex and debatable.
Jung is a joke, no discernable talent especially when viewed from a Lacanian perspective his ideas were ludicrous.

>>9633919
Pure fraud, can't be excused by historical relevance like Freud or aesthetics like Jung and therefore not remotely worth engaging with

Who are you quoting?

politics are so limited in time and unimportant when looking at what makes the world turn. Don't get yourself stuck in bagatelles like contemporary US politics anon, look at the great scheme of things, from which ever stance you want to do it

I wasn't planning on making it a magnifying glass "this is a liberal, this is a conservative" style essay. It was moreso going to say that once you get outside of the Red vs Blue mentality and look at the individual citizens you realize how both political teams use the same tactics to draw out the same responses. The more ingrained a person is in a political party, the easier they are to control and vote with only half of the whole story

Postmodernism. Computers and technology causing things like helvetica to completely shift the platform of marketing. Simplification of everything stems from it.

What is it like living in a country with mostly whites, and a stable homogeneous culture?

As I type this, 3 different police sirens are going on outside my window and two immigrant women are vomiting on the street.
