I don't think so.

/lit/ is full of confused adolescents that parade an empty illusion of elitism to fit in with some sort of counter-culture to appear with a comfortable identity in a society they find to be alienating. This may be caused by their ineptitude and arrogance but, as with all forms of intellectualism, they gain some sort of consciousness over their actions which makes them embrace materialism without being blinded by the innate jealousy of their middle-class background. They appear isolated, sheltered and unsympathetic but they never mistake the vain dream of upper-class intellectual bourgeoisie as something more than an outdated ideal. This is the central identity conflict that academia has to face today. But the nature of this website rewards ironic posturing and thoughtlessness and thus skews the clash of personalities. Boards like /r9k/ and /pol/ are the ones that purely form a imaginary collective of joined forces that serve to replace the confusing insecurity about belonging with hate of some ideal hypocritical elite (attractive young people/liberals) that they don't want to abolish but replace with politics that are just the same but distorted with an inconsolable drive for dominance and acknowledgement.

read the book

It's a metaphor about the arrogant posturing of the upper-class and the rise of an intellectually incompetent middle-class that is driven by shallow materialistic rage.

I always kek so hard when another philosophy major projects his crippling insecurities by wrapping them in some pseudo-intellectual fluff.
