No, if you're reading airport fiction you're probably not getting anything out of it. But if you consistently read more difficult or at least ideologically subversive stuff on a common basis, generally your vocabulary, critical thinking skills, and overall intellectual capacity do increase, if only by virtue of synaptic engagement.

This is applicable, but never take anything on here seriously.

4chan fucked my reading ability
I used to be able to slam through pages with ease but now I have trouble since I'm too busy questioning the author's motives to blindly accept whatever they say. It's a blessing and a curse.

If you read about one thing only, especially if that thing is occultic religions, you are not getting much out of your time. I recommend trying something else from time to time. Different styles, different topics.

Stop being a fag

They mean they are utilitarians and you should ignore their opinion. Read for the joy of reading and beauty of the art.
