What would Baudrillard have to say about vtubers?

>Vietnam war didn't happen
>Watergate didn't happen
>the Gulf War didn't happen
>Corona (Quarantine) didn't happen

>Global warming didn't happen

Am I doing Baudrillard correctly?

The culture war? Just another simulacrum.

>maybe you only want to fuck femboys because, like, they're simulcra of women
>bro
>like boipucci is just pussy but saggy and stinky and not in a good way
>yeah...
>and like, this only happens because of like, people wanting more niche sex
>yeah like mcdonald's ice cream machines

Why haven't you read Baudrillard yet?

Truth? Just another commodity.

Western philosophy? Just another commodity.

Once the commodity-form has been abolished, there will be nothing left but signs and their signifies. The semiotic totality will create an exchange of universal proportion, unprecedented in all of history. Simulacra will cease to be simulacra and become something even more sublime. We must not fear the impending rise of the Meme, for those of us who understand symbolic exchange will become the new ruling class. The proletariat will overthrow the bourgeoisie, only to establish a new mode of production: the Meme Economy. Those who meme the most will rule the new Simulacrum. Meaning will cease to have a meaning beyond the symbolic exchange, the internet will become a new playground for us to toy with. Those who rule the internet will rule the world. We can only achieve this with the mass production of memes; with the abolition of the commodity-form will come the meme-form. The value-form will remain but be excluded to the online realm. All I do is eat, sleep, and fuck. And this is precisely why I have awoken to this profound truth: those of us who lose now will win in the future.

What's the point of revolution? I can understand Marx's view of history as ever progressing to another thing, but why would there be the endpoint of history?

Is revolution worth it just to progress history? What happens when we get the revolution we all wanted? It won't stop there.

how to learn mathematics the /lit/ way?

Internet memes are the manifestation of comedy and jokes made ecstatic. Beginning their lifetime as 4th order simulacra, having only value their viral system and never being exchanged for anything none-virtual, they already begin their process of rapid renewal and reinvention until it dies, in an obesity of meaning and variation, it becomes banal and even shameful for some to bring it back up again after its death.

Baudrillard was a prophet.

holy.. what did he mean by this? is this the power of french philosophy?

After seeing it recommended here I read all of the currently released chapters of Mother of Learning. I really enjoyed it although the author is pretty terrible at dialogue and all the characters have the exact same voice. Are there any other web serials that are really good? I already read and enjoyed worm and ward is cringe. I need something else to read now so please help me.

I'll take lesser known but long series of other kinds too, even chinkshit. I like edge.

any other litrpg degenerates here? I need some recs. I'm reading awaken online and although the combat is kind of fun the actual writing is so embarrassingly bad that it bothers even me. I read chink shit for fuck sake but this is just another level of cringe. At least with chinkshit I can chalk some of it up to the translation, but this dude obviously is a native english speaker. I think I unironically write better in many ways when i was 12.

Anyway what are some comfy litrpgs? Preferably with edgy main characters or at least lots of violence. Also I'd prefer more focus on doing game shit and less on interacting with characters because I dont think litrpg writers are capable of writing about relationships or interesting ideas so they should just stick to game cringe wish fulfillment.


Just rec me edgy/violent litrpgs

why have i heard a lot about derrida and foucault and even a little deleuze in my philosophy, anthro, and english classes but never hear about my negro baudrillard?

that may be so, but there is still no exit from simulacra even in the void friend

>tfw he was right and the apocalypse already took place and both the real and the imaginary have come to an end

Can someone help me understand what the fuck Baudrillard is trying to say about simulacra and all that?
What the fuck is he on about?
