/lit/ - Literature

I really liked the fact that the book basically shits on our society currently I can't imagine how Debord would have felt now. Any books like this? I really enjoyed the questions Debord raises it really reminds me of Hunter S. Thompson-esque writing like Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail

o hiya anon, its me the most important philosophical work since 'capital'... you have read me right anon? p-plz resist the spectacle anon

I read the first chapter and what I understood was that the spectacle is a understanding of reality that is created by society and media and is how we relate to each other what do you guys think?

What's /lit/'s opinion on this pseudo philosophical 1960s French book?

more like gay the bored, am i right?

Stop using the internet.

>he probably has the best research team on air right now.
In other words he has like a staff of 5 people who spend 3 hours googling their subjects and maybe get an interview , who then compact all that information into a entertaining format, aka "infotainment".

People who find Oliver informative need to unplug from the idiot box for awhile and think about why it should scare them how people's attention spans have degraded to such a severe degree that they get supposedly important information from a fucking comedian

...I don't get it.

Is he just saying "Baw! People are getting brainwashed by shitty Hollywood movies!"? I imagine it must be more subtle than that.
