/lit/ - Literature

They do matter. Of course they matter. Media is hugely important. Our world is created by it in ever more recursive ways. Peterson is a culture-war lightning rod, and that culture war is opening up some very large and very deep cracks beneath the ground of the society we live in. That stuff isn't going away. Those things are only going to get bigger. We're going to see some interesting times.

Neoliberalism and globalization are presently reaping the whirlwind sown by postmodernity. This is not to demonize those writers, though: I *like* reading about postmodernity. Reading that stuff gave me the fucked-up sensibilities that I have today. That is the prism through which I view the world. So, in fairness, if you ask someone who has pointlessly and unprofitably spent some amount of time dwelling on this stuff, of course that person is going to say this stuff matters. Does it have to matter to you? Maybe not. But it is interesting as all hell.

>implying /lit/ doesn't matter
How dare you. Pistols at dawn.
