>>12808840
you are trying to ascribe one meaning to something (this 9 people's suicide) with very heterogeneous causes and underlying reasons.

>>12808840
>Debord committed suicide by shooting himself in the head (or possibly heart)
What the fuck, which one?!

>>12808840
They were too weak.

A few of them felt alienated from society which caused their depression.

>>12808840
>deleuze
the suffering from his tuberculosis got too bad, so he ended it, possibly so his friends and family didn't have to see him suffer

>dfw
probably because his wife wasn't hot enough or something. not sure what kind of recognition this guy wanted

>who?
don't know

>debord
his concept of the spectacle wasn't taken seriously enough

>hemingway
lifetime of alcoholism, injuries from a plane crash, liver disease, mental illness

>virginia woolf
she was a crazy bitch

>who?
no idea but he looks mad gay

>mishima
unsuccessful coup

>who?
don't know

>>12808946
Mishima went in knowing it wouldn't succeed. He just had a weird obsession with that kind of death and wanted to live it out.

>>12808946
this is what happens when you get all you knowledge of literature from 4chan

>>12808946
>Deleuze doing things for his family

yeah right

>>12808956
word, good insight

>>12808958
the only book i've ever read because of lit is no longer human, so you can go fuck yourself you brainlet cunt

>>12808975
he did have a wife and kids like a normal guy, anon

>>12809010
Its a joke about Deleuze criticizing the family structure

>>12809023
no yeah i got the joke

>>12808946
Mark fisher is the third one, he's between that sweet spot of based and cringe.

>>12808840
Mishima realised that the age of madcunts was over, but decided to try shit anyway

>>12809056
had a feeling it was him, haven't read capitalist realism but it's an intriguing notion

Why did he do it, lads?

>>12808946

Virginia killed herself by filling her clothes with stones and simply walking into the water, after a lifetime of mental illness. Imagine thinking guncucks are cooler than that

>>12808840
What did they do?

one was plagiarism

>>12809598
uninstalled

Ignore these >>12808862 >>12808946 guys, he killed himself because he was being accused of murdering Gerard Lebovici and alcohol had completely fucked his nerves up.
>>12808878
Apparently, it was an old hunting rifle and given the damage and his shakes, it's impossible to know where he aimed, only that he died.

>>12808946
Also I'm not sure how you decided the spectacle wasn't taken seriously enough when Debord himself lived to see it being taken seriously by both enemies and agents of the spectacle.

>>12809704
i didn't decide it you fucking asswipe, i read it somewhere

I will never not laugh at the greatly deserved ridicule of this hack fraud. DFW will be remembered by posterity as the most incompetent snake oil salesman western literature has ever produced.

The only sincere act of his life was when he kicked away the chair. His life was nothing but a series of ironies and lies predicated on the the joke that is new sincerity. The big punchline was the creaking of the rafter and the piss trickling down his leg to the floor.

his epiphany that the only viable thing for him to do was to kill himself was the best thing to happen to literature in 30 years since he began writing because behind all the self aware gimmicks and self help books and the drugs and the audience pussy there was no discernible talent

>>12808840
tfw no one knows that the US govt harassed and stalked Hemmingway until he killed himself as part of COINTEL PRO and have even released the majority of the documents pertaining to this.

They all look homosexual and I don't think it's a coincidence.

>>12808840
Out of step with the gestalt of their age, and so tossed themselves beneath the boulder of Sisyphus.
Do not forget that there is always hope. Listen to Uncle-Tedcore.

>she was a crazy bitch
Fuck off. She was beautiful soul.
>>12809091
He was a very sad man who didn't find what he was looking for any place that he looked.

>>12808840

>>12811724

>no Carlo Michelstaedter

This dude was an absolute genius and he killed himself at 23. Nonetheless, he left something like a thousand pages of essays, philosophical dialogues and poems. And still /lit/ doesn't know him. Based retards.
