/lit/ - Literature

Reading books is a waste.

I read extensively in my college years well into my mid twenties. If you wanted to find me on a weekday night you'd have to search up the city libraries.

I cannot say being literate will gain you access to sublime wisdom. Books are repositories meant for people within a system to have common terms and ideas to fall back on when they need to agree on something in the course of communication.

Do you really think you could not come up with the matters written in books by yourself? Do you really think you can understand material written in a book if you do not come up with it on your own outside your reading? Did you honestly believe you can 'understand' Nietzsche by reading him without beforehand having lived what he he has written about?

Highly accoladed yet retardedly leftist scholars piling up in academia are proof that no amount of books you read will set you above the rest of humanity. The book market is necessity meeting vanity meets smoke and mirrors.

The jocks were right, reading is for faggots!
