>muh books

What is this meme? Books are nothing more than information and recorded thought and expression, both of which are available on the internet in formats and mediums magnitudes better than a book.

The book meme really gets hilarious whenever somebody references philosophy, as if some ancient greek or jewish german's ramblings about some common sense topic is an amazing revelation from god.

Basically I think book readers can be classified into two categories, many people can belong to both.

0) Retard that doesn't realize more efficient manner of information access is available

1) In regards to thought and expression, retards that are unable to form such thoughts or expressions themselves.

This concludes my thread, you may now commit suicide if you are a book reader. Thank you.

i read fantasy novels for enjoyment and perspective. also, its interesting to hear the perspectives of life from other people long since dead from this world. that includes books like the bible arguably the most important book in existence. It was here long before our time and will be here long after our time. i think you are the one who needs to commit suicide.

95% of Books are for useless lazy faggots, specially the self help, literature and philosophy ones.
It's my personal view that, stuff like "purpose", "meaning" etc is for yourself to understand and find through real experience in your own life.
I only read Textbooks (not the Amerishart ones) and Instruction manuals.

If you are interested in Fantasy, History, Mythology etc better listen to stories, play video games or watch movies.
Note that all the great Epics and legends were passed down orally, were often songs, hence music and theatre was involved too.
Literature is for incels who need to touch grass.

Threads like these always spell typo laden doom. Information will eventually be injected into the brain via syringe in order to forgo the 'agony' of spending a few hours reading an extended text.

Le bookz r dumb meme is just cope for dopamine fried retards who don't have the mental capacity to sit down, comprehend a long stretch of text and then reflect back and draw their own conclusions. This is why so many people can't form their own opinions and rely on figures who may or may not have ulterior motives to tell them what to do and think.

If you're on 4chan for long amounts of time then you're reading and if you have any amount of discernment you can identify the nuggets of wisdom from actual informed anons instead of absorbing the mindless /pol/ and incel shit that gets reposted constantly.

The difference between a book and internet information is, that everyone can, without any peer-reviewing, publish his garbage on the internet. A book needs to be published and will be read at least by a corrector and the publishing company. If it is utter garbage they probably won't release it. So there is at least a little bit of quality control.
