If he hates women and ethnic minorities, then yes of course. But I have a suspicion he's a filthy libcuck

>>9131974

This. He's probably one of those communists who think Nietzsche was left-wing.

>an overgrown teenager writes angsty stories full of projections
/lit/ the man

Literature is such a faggy hobby.

He identifies as a 23 year old.

He looks like a cuck desu

Also I bet he studied English in Trinity or UCD, the posh cunt

Reminds me of that Guy in your MFA twitter

>>9132019
Why do faggot alt-righters think they're intelligent because they dislike nihilism?

Honestly, why has the big boogie man nihilism become such a fucking meme recently? And why does the alt-right think it's the result of duh media and not the result of basic existential thinking?

it was published in 2014

>>9132156
It has been 'such a fucking meme' for several hundred years. Read more instead of shitposting, pleb.

Are Trinity students really considered posh in Ireland?

>>9132217
Yes, and poshness is considered a sin above all others.

I want to cut a hole in his throat and then fuck the throat hole.

Seriously tho. I hate this fucking thread. I see this thread 8 times a day. No. He's not our guy. I don't know who this dipshit is. I don't care, either. Fuck you OP.

>commies thinking Nietzche was left wing

In other words, retarded. Good allegory.

>>9132156
Because it's encouraged by culture. It used to be culture was a defense against nihilism. The reason why nihilism is dangerous is because its a meme. It's a good meme. It's fucking obvious if you think for five seconds. Read the book of Ecclesiastes in the old testament. Nihilism isn't new, but it used to be we had an entire culture to combat it.

>>9131968
His works sound interesting. I would give them a try.

get out /pol/

we don't need your "redpills" here

>>9133591
Have you honestly read it?

I read one story which starts with some edgy guy on a ferry sperging out because nobody reads Ulysses any more. Stopped reading there.

>>9131982
Gtfo here nigger, Nietzsche transcended political ideology.

>>9136271
No shit, that was my point.

>>9136271
He also heavily criticized Nazi ideology.

How do you like dem apples /pol/?

>>9136326
I love how reality declines the delusional models of ideology being pushed unto it. I also hate it. Not limited to political ideas.

>Love dinosaurs

Nihilism is impossible to reach, but you need a lot of endurance to last truthseeking.

>>9136195
>have you honestly read it
yes. That story and another story about a college dropout's encounter with a similar burned out drifter were the only stories I enjoyed in the collection. The rest I could see far too obviously who he was ripping off.

>>9136566
Dubs won't lie.

You cant pretend to be nihilistic and wear what he's wearing in that picture

Anybody here remember the Anon who was studying at Trinity who kept posting about how he was a genius etc. Not the usual shitposter who does that.

I remember he posted some excerpt from a story about a depressed student who buys some chocolate biscuits or something

Nobody ever read Ulysses. It's always been a bookshelf decoration

>>9134955
Are there specific things you can cite w/r/t nihilism being encouraged by culture in today's world? I agree with you, but whenever I talk about it with someone it always devolves to "dude social media lmao".

Obviously there is a shrinking amount of devoted religious people, and our media is mostly atheistic, but are there good specific examples to articulate this with?
