/lit/ - Literature

>wants to read literature about social isolation and alienation

Oh look another thread glorifying someone for being "based" because he has generic right wing traditionalist viewpoints that virtually every other reactionary shares.

>And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
>Death killed people with death
Why does Revelation read like lobotomized McCarthy trying to write YA fiction? I thought Bible was supposed to be pinnacle of literature?

Because you f*cking zoomer I do not wan't to stare at a motherfing computer screen when I read and need to concentrate. I will and have ordered books that are no more than 50 pages which was just a compilation of random prose poems or essays that I could've got off libshit.

Does anyone just stop reading a piece of text or modern piece of literature as soon as they come to a piece of text that says:
>I mean
because you instantly know its written by some amerifat teen with an immensely low IQ and nothing that comes after it can have any value whatsoever

I cant fucking take this shit anymore. I cant say I like or suggest Lovecraft in any fucking space online whatsoever anymore or I get fucking bombarded with "But that guy hated blacks" at every post.

>Madhva's attempts to locate his controversial views in the canonical Vedanta texts often proved difficult. He is perhaps most famous for his idiosyncratic rendering of the Chandogya Upanisad's statement tat tvam asi or "you (the atman) are that (brahman)." By carrying over the 'a' from the preceding word, Madhva rendered the phrase atat tvam asi or "you are not that."
