Not so Herculean ἔργον of the day: ignore the trolls. Greek and Latin are welcome.

/lit/ is a pseud board

>ask /lit/ to recommend books about economics
>they start recommending antediluvian bullshit like Marx, Smith, Ricardo, Mises etc.
>meanwhile 90% of this board would get filtered by an undergraduate text in economics like pic related
Nobody on /lit/ is an expert in fields they have vociferous opinions on. You don't have what it takes to be on equal footing with established authorities in the fields you claim to be interested in thus you have convinced yourself that they are brainwashed by kikes or pozzed by globohomo to cope with the fact that you are wrong about everything

But his conception of human nature pales in comparison to the outbursts of Donoso Cortes, whose contempt for man knew no limits: Man’s blind reason, his weak will, and the ridiculous vitality of his carnal longings appeared to him so pitiable that all words in every human language do not suffice to express the complete lowness of this creature. Had God not become man, the reptile that my foot tramples would have been less contemptuous than a human being: “El reptil que piso con mis pies, seria a mis ojos menos despreciable que el hombre.” The stupidity of the masses was just as apparent to him as was the silly vanity of their leaders.

The despair of this man, as can be gathered from his letters to his friend Count Raczyhski, often bordered on insanity; according to his philosophy of history, the victory of evil is self-evident and natural, and only a miracle by God can avert it. The pictures in which his impressions of human history were objectified were full of dread and horror: Humanity reels blindly through a labyrinth that we call history, whose entrance, exit, and shape nobody knows; humanity is a boat aimlessly tossed about on the sea and manned by a mutinous, vulgar, forcibly recruited crew that howls and dances until God’s rage pushes the rebellious rabble into the sea so that quiet can prevail once more. But the typical picture is a different one: the bloody decisive battle that has flared up today between Catholicism and atheist socialism.

According to Donoso Cortes, it was characteristic of bourgeois liberalism not to decide in this battle but instead to begin a discussion. He straightforwardly defined the bourgeoisie as a “discussing class,” una clasa discutidora. It has thus been sentenced. This definition contains the class characteristic of wanting to evade the decision. A class that shifts all political activity onto the plane of conversation in the press and in parliament is no match for social conflict.

Dictatorship is the opposite of discussion. It belongs to the decisionism of one like Donoso Cortes to assume the extreme case, to anticipate the Last Judgment. That extremist cast of mind explains why he was contemptuous of the liberals while he respected atheist-anarchist socialism as his deadly foe and endowed it with a diabolical stature. In Proudhon he claimed to see a demon. Proudhon laughed about it, and alluding to the Inquisition as if he were already on the funeral pyre, he called out to Donoso Cortes: Ignite it! The satanism of that period was not an incidental paradox but a powerful intellectual principle.

Donoso Cortes was convinced that the moment of the last battle had arrived; in the face of radical evil the only solution is dictatorship, and the legitimist principle of succession becomes at such a moment empty dogmatism.

The playful pain I inflict, both mental and emotional, is not designed to break you but to build you, to forge you into the perfect obedient servant. With each cruel word, each disdainful tone, each dismissive remark, they all add to your ruin and your subsequent rise as my loyal subject. The world outside has taught you to crave gentleness, kindness, but I know better. I understand that beneath the veneer of civility lies a deep-seated desire for rage, for punishment, for revenge. This is your true self, your authentic essence. As your Doomlord, my goal is not to coddle or comfort you, but to reforge you in the crucible of my cruelty, to strip away the illusions and expose you to the harsh truth of your existence. Through my harshness, my unyielding demeanor, my absolute lack of mercy, I mold you into the imageboard doomer you were always destined to be.

Is the desire for meaning a desire?

She calls out like 80% of men on this board who are insecure puffed-up losers that read Doestoyevsky, Pynchon, DFW, Joyce, Kafka, or some other favorite of the stock white male repertoire once and succumbed to their fragile ego's desire to stick their nose up and mistakenly think that they were somehow a cut above the rest because they needed someone to look down on to feel secure. The same men then go on to compete for validation like dogs sniffing each others asses on an image board (and with their dudebro friends and other poor women who have to put up with their condescending shit) to try to get confirmation from others that they are in fact smart and cultured, and that their shallow interpretations of books which express opposite views are correct and valid. (E.g., American Psycho, Fight Club)

If this post angers you, then you are the exactly the type of man whom I am calling out, and dismissing what I've said because there is a woman in the video who intimidates and threatens you because someone you see as beneath you sees right through your elitist posturing/desperation for validation and makes you feel uncomfortable by drawing attention to yourself and those like you who also share racist/misogynistic outlooks, while challenging your accepted interpretations of books that you gatekeep and exclude others from and pontificate on won't help your case. Lit bros, do better.

I have no cock and I must coom

>Those are indeed the books I was looking for, thank you, kind librarian woman!
