Stop reading German "philosophy". It will gook up your brain with needless verb nouns and bastardized Ancient Greek words, especially Heinigger who is the worst at this. Read Mumford, Ellul, Debord, Baudrillard instead.

yea, I don't really like shallan, sometimes she's ok, sometimes completely insufferable. And the romance was so dull. So awfully written, read better romances in children books.

Also something I've noticed is that sanderson frequently emphasizes strong female protagonist. But funnily, they are all written the same, just cringy. Shallan, jasnah, navani, that girl in elantris. They all have this, I can do everything, don't need a man vibe. Like they are trying to prove something. Literally all of them are essentially the same character. The girl in elantris is the only one who's ok.

damn, guess I'll start pic related then.

Fuakkkk bros, I wanna know what happens to kaladin and his family. That's honestly it, don't care about anyone else. Also did you guys get like a really gross feeling from dalinar and navani's relationship? Just such cuckish/beta behaviour. Letting your bro take your love, then taking her back after he dies, and she has kids. felt so gross to me.

your mind has been colonized by hollywood and cultural memes
read this and Simulacra and Simulation
everybody is just playing a part they learned through imitation from mass media, trying to recreate something that doesn't exist

is there a preferred translation for this?
