Stop reading books expecting every character to be exactly like you.

Underworld sucks cock

Any decent /lit/ on the links between homosexuality and pedophilia? It's hard trying to find comprehensive or trustworthy shit on the subject that isn't cherrypicked.

>stream of consciousness

I absolutely despise people who only read in an attempt to read about themselves. The incredible amount of narcissism this must require is beyond my understanding. I can't imagine reading something and then having a fit of anger the moment that the main character stops resembling me.

/pol/ is the worst thing that ever happened to this senegalese sheep-herding forum
You could at least try to blend in a little bit by not accusing everyone of being a redditor cuck in every fucking post

I don't really get why you people feel the need to go so fucking far with this "the author is dead" shit. You sound like some kind of cult and it's seriously embarrassing. I agree that the authors intentions are not necessarily the final word and that valuable interpretation can be gained from text even if it isn't what the author had in mind, but this weird shit about straight up saying that their intentions are worth LESS than the opinions of Joe Schmo and that their intentions should be ignored seems like nothing but the encouragement of moral relativism and anti-intellectualism by trying to make everyone into a special snowflake who gets participation awards, and by trying to quiet those who seek meaningful interpretation and knowledge.
