I'm really not just trying to be a contrarian ITT. To expand on what I said so it doesn't seem like I'm just shitposting, I've only met two people IRL who claimed to genuinely like PKD. One is a loser burnout hippy chick who has done absolutely nothing with their life but rejects that reality under the guise of "free love maaaan, the man's trying to hold me downnn", and the other was a Literal crackhead who thought he was a psychologist who "experimented" with all different kinds of drugs. This is the type of crowd he attracts, simply because his writing bleeds angst and reads like a 14 year old boy pretending he's different and more special than all the "normies".

This is unironically why white males need to leave room for female and minority writers.

Come at me, but you know I'm right.

What does /lit/ listen to when they read/write?

The silence is distracting me

What are the best arguments (and arguers) against positivism and the ability for science to find an absolute truth? I read a little Nietzsche, and it seems like he says that science isn't completely true (or at least not the only objective truth) because it is ultimately an interpretation of the world, and a representation of the will-to-truth, but this doesn't seem to be satisfying to me. I'm not saying that I think that STEM is better than philosophy, because they attempt to explore different things, but I'm wondering as to what makes people doubt the legitimacy of say, the existence of numbers, and their representation of the world.

Yes, they're all MEN.
