How can "writers" who never read believe they can be

There's un-ironically nothing wrong with that man, or his opinions, for that matter. Even degenerate anime furries understand at least on a primal level, the importance of the Tribe. The friend/enemy distinction. Leftists are just on a whole new plane of Delusion. even a fool can see it.

Do you have a tribal tattoo as well?

The shift in teaching art as a craft, containing standards and requiring technical knowledge with an external end, like honoring God or hinting at the sublime, to a mere vehicle for self-expression.

It's a shoop. Look at the clock.

This.


I know a lot of terrible people who consider themselves writers; their work is always thinly veiled autobiography, because it takes no imagination, and these people are narcissists.

None of them have finished a book in years.

>How can "writers" who never read believe they can be taken seriously?
So... blind people can't be taken seriously? Ok, let's skip the satire of a strawman and move on to actual arguments.

I only judge a book by its content, even though I also look at the cover.
I don't care if the writer has read a whole library or never read anything at all.

I'm not sure why I should care. Is there a reason to it?
Did Shakespeare read huge amounts of books or did his lack of Gutenberg force him to acquire his knowledge by other means?
