Fuck off.

anime is YA fiction and will never be /lit/

/lit/ is one of the least productive and pleasant boards on this website.
On the other hand, it's one of the most pretentious and poisonous.
No actual discussion occurs.
The excuse for discourse here is an incoherent clusterfuck.
It's just a set of meme-competitions.
Literature vs genre fiction, analytic vs continental, and various, endless comparisons made between authors, philosophers, artists, ANYTHING the dogmatists here can fill their diaper with. Their comments either consist of incoherent and irrelevant paragraphs of attempted justification, or more typically, just
>my opinion > your opinion
The level of shitposting is more distilled than on /v/.

It's no wonder moot thinks what he does of it.

Stopped reading there.

i get why it's cool to hate obama but his forcing through of healthcare reform, however modest, was very ideologically subversive.

Ayn Rand.

An admirable sentiment, but its ultra-orthodoxy only succeeds in undermining itself and appealing to braindead betas with mild asperger's.

>how do you know that they think they must rigorously justify their actions to themselves and others?
they said themselves, 'Allah has been avenged'. You see the point in front of you but you're dragging your heels with nonsense and trying to obfuscate the issue.

>greater truth can be based on non-logical thought processes
of course it doesn't need to be correct logic, but like you said there still needs to be a thought process which is at least lucid and stable enough for people to buy it or even pretend to buy it, be it a tautology or whatever.

There is a boundary in how far you can abstract the language of an idea and still be able to integrate its symbolic meaning. Ideologies like those derived from the modern day Church of England will symbolically disintegrate before you make it to the levels of obscenity seem in Wahhabism for example.
