So how do you think these lads would react if they learned that

>Nietzsche
Probably rethinking his amor fati

>>9338680
probably an hero

>>9338680
>ad hominem

hmm is that an argument? hmmmmmmmm... oh wait no it isn't

anyway, just because a teenager is a teenager doesn't mean he is wrong.

>>9338680
Nietzsche would probably rail against elites for ever letting a decentralized, horizontally-libertarian mode of communication like the internet become accessible to the masses who can't handle the truth bombs he drops, or even existing at all.

But the majority of Poe, Nietzsche, and Lovecraft fans are not edgy teenagers. However, I suspect that OP might be an edgy teenager.

This is silly. Today's edgy teenager is quite simply the future.. Who better in your corner if, ultimately, you want your ideas to live?

Nietzsche was a nihilist.

All were racist so they'd think that Sheep needs to stop reading all three of them.

I doubt edgy teens legitimately read said authors. Most of them read summaries and or gather out of context quotes to post.

This was my analysis as well, with the exception of Nietzsche. He has a massive following of greasy young men who are miles from being the ubermensch.

I looked at the Lovecraft facebook page, and I'm pretty sure of the 900k likes, only 4-5k actually read him.

Edgy teen beliefs have a remarkably short shelf life because edgy teens are less interested in truths and more interested in the aesthetic of their beliefs. Which is why you get so many dogmatic atheists, hedonists that claim to be "nihilists", anarchists, and vegan socialist communes. they're not pro-something they love, they're anti-something they hate.

Fuck, can someone please shoop in Jordan Peterson to this line up? It would make for an excellent bait thread.

I've read him in his entirety, and only about 10% of his works are the really gushy horror stuff. 90% are reflections on an academia he was denied a part in, and surrealist descriptions of peoples, peoples' behaviors, and place descriptions. The Terrible Old Man is emblematic of this. I cannot believe that the mass of his fans have read all of his surrealist works.

I don't disagree with this. Nonetheless, even the Church(es) endeavour to achieve their adherence-- Why? Indoctrination of the young is going to feel like slavery to the more thoughtful of youth's denizens. We've all been there. That some of us are still there suggests that there's no need for alarm via your position. I still don't think that the adherence of the young wd phase the old writers in the very least-- they'd be flattered, if anything.

Bro maybe if you go back to r/philosophy then someone will care about your asinine fallacy-sperging.

nietzsche would probably not be surprised that the majority of people who like him misunderstand him considering he predicted it in the first place

>>9338680
nietzsche fucking knew that he would pick up disciples who misunderstood him

also nietzsche's "fanbase" is mostly adults because he's a philosopher and cultural critic rather than a hack who writes emo shit
