It is when you there's no byproduct from doing it other than supposed "health". Now, if you do the same type work actually performing work like building or farming then you are doing something and getting healthy. Exercising for the sake of exercising is just masturbation. You need to work for the betterment of the community. Doing so will make you healthy.

Whatever the fuck you do that helps your community, you're merely helping others so that they can get back to their masturbatory hobbies. With this knowledge in mind, if you're still aiding in your community, you're only doing it because it feels good to YOU to help people, uncaring of what they do afterward.

You have to keep in mind that Nerd Culture or the commercialized version of it is nothing but a smokescreen for liberals and people who went to university or people who are in far too much debt, they want to reassure themselves that they made the right choice in wasting thousands upon thousands on a social science degree but are told to keep buying nerd shit because it'll make them appear smart and like they've made the right decision. They are wearing a chain around their neck and it is only getting tighter as they walk around in a circle while companies pressure them into buying crap like Funko Pop and tricking them into rebelling against the system with shitty YA movies when they are conforming to political leftist beliefs that is really destroying their soul, nerd culture is a way to crush individualism.

I don't know about you but I feel like I'm going to go fucking crazy if someone or critics mention how good the latest Marvel, Star Wars or Harry Potter movie was.

Is Capeshit and nerd culture too big to die or will something come along and replace it?

>>81941444
Everything dies. Nice digits btw

>>81941697

>Decades worth of source material to exploit

Something tells me otherwise

>>81941444
It stops being 'nerd culture' and just becomes culture. It is already happening.

>>81941444
It won't go anywhere. The internet has made it so less people are going to the theaters. The mid-budget film which may or may not be a diamond in the rough, is dead. Teens-20 somethings only go out to the movies when it's a big social event. i.e. capeshit.

>>81941935

I think theaters will eventually go away and in a bed to stop piracy movie companies will just stream the movies in your home for a limited time only before it becomes available on BD, that way Capeshit unfortunately continues to thrive.

aside from a few genuine pieces of art it's mostly complete shit

>>81942403

>All Capeshit movies should be open to all forms of criticism

Interesting. I've really noticed how bitter people are if you even point out a legit flaw in comics or Capeshit movies at the height of its popularity, like when TFA came out and /tv/ instantly noticed how much of a carbon clone of ANW it would be but normies reared their heads and screeched MUH CHILDHOOD CAN BE NO WRONG, HOW DARE YOU!

Since Millennials are mostly SJWs and extreme lefties and since Capshit is I wonder if this is going to be one of the causes as to why their offspring will eventually adopt Conservatism as a sort of rebellion or counter culture much like how leftism was the counter culture of the 60s.

I've noticed a pattern here where they are pretty much obsessed with buying this shitty merchandise in an futile attempt something might be worth lots of money.
