/lit/ - Literature

Because most here are pseuds and most leftists are pseuds.

In 2014 our Top 100 chart circulated on plebbit. Pretty certain a few social media groups leaked in here too. There's not that many but they just can't help themselves replying when they get triggered. Good news is I've noticed they're slowly but surely receding because, when it comes to telling the truth, we don't back down.

>>14296780
To be fair it seems pretty well balanced. The leftists are just more vocal and tend to triple fag.

>>14296780
Define leftist, or don't.

it's pretty clear that reading and high IQ scores correlate positively with being left wing. obviously this is skewed on 4chan, but it makes sense

The pseuds on this board consist of people who rationalize predominantly with the right side of their brain. They are emotional reasoners, not analytical. Currently, the left panders towards these emotional brainlets with rhetorically emotional appeals. They rile the retards up with rhetoric about inequality, which is merely a derivative of envy. The pseud, unconsciously aware of their intellectual inferiority, eats these rhetorical appeals up because they provide to them an emotional outlet to soothe their inner feeling of inferiority. Even when discussing philosophy, these pseuds rarely contribute anything more than ad hominem attacks to philosophical discussion. The reason is, they cannot comprehend arguments in a logical or analytical sense. They are deeply jealous of true intellectuals that have the ability to dissect and articulate meaning from great literature, as opposed to just feel, or sense (or whatever) what the author is communicating. These people are the worst of the worst because they would rather destroy the world rather than accept their own intellectual inferiority.

Labels like that are a spook.
Do you mean economically socialist? or Progressive? Do you mean Globalists lefty Globohomos or Nationalist lefties like China/DPRK?
What about Socially conservative Marxists like Christopher Lasch?

Isn't it implied based on how we talk on this board that he means socialist? When people say left they either mean Socialist (pejoratively) or faggot SJW beta. This board talks a lot about the former but the latter is rarely defended.

The average age on /lit/ is probably about 19 or 20, so far too old to be right wing

Right wing politics is inherently emotionally driven. It is defined by irrational fear and a desire for the world to conform to a model that its adherents wish was true rather than what is true. See the widespread science denialism and desperate clinging to religion that dominates rightwing politics today. They attempt to dupe idiots into believing that they are acting rational by self-identifying as such, despite the fact that they simply use words like "rational" or "logical" or "analytical" to describe themselves without ever actually demonstrating those qualities. They simply declare themselves superior, and their "opponents" as embodying arbitrarily-defined negative traits before calling it a day and hitting the post button.

Someone who communicates their ideas via "chad vs virgin" memes is either an emotionally-driven and vindictive fool, or else believes that you would have to be one to take them seriously.

>>14297139
>See the widespread science denialism and desperate clinging to religion that dominates rightwing politics today.
This is rather obtuse. Besides, what if they're correct?

People will give some bullshit bottom up answer, but the real answer is top down: the left gatekeeps and influences a significant amount of high culture and pop culture via the media and academia.

>>14296935
THIS, and this post is getting ignored because it's true.

You just described Globohomo Leftism. Nobody pretends that religious people on the right wing don't believe in fanciful faggotry, they do and they own up to it. But people on the Left wing pretend races don't exist, that biological differences between human groups don't exist or only apply no deeper than skin or that sex/gender is a social construct, that men and women are the same intellectually and characteristically or that the nuclear family is a dysfunctional social construct that needs to be dismantled, especially in white, non-Jewish families. Holy shit man. The worst part about your anti-reality views are that Leftists like you pretend your fanciful faggotry is backed by "science". You are an NPC. And yes most people around you would agree with your retarded views, including mainstream media and academia, just like educated people once believed in a flat earth and a geocentric view of the Universe. This is what the Globalist and the self-worshipping Jews and the coalition of marginalized retarded cowards on the left want you to believe. Your beliefs are just that though, faith in beliefs. You worship sciencism and Cultural Marxist ideology. You are in the majority. Most people are retarded. Congratulations on joining the herd of retards. Keep feeling superior to your own people. Keep hating all that is good you fucken coward.

I don't have any idea what you're talking about. If you are referring to the Left's back and forth stance on race, ie it exists when black are oppressed by whites but doesn't exists with regards to intelligence etc., then I could agree with you. Words don't mean shit. The Jews taught me this. All that matters is integrity. It matters not what you say by the consistency of your ideas. And in this regards the Left is purely anti-white, anti-male, anti-West, anti-nature and pro authoritarian state, pro weakness, pro Globalist, pro Sub Saharan African.

Your defining right wing politics with 4chan memes and internet subculture. The world exists outside of the internet you know. Most of us chad right wingers know and understand this.

I geniuenly worry that people believe that Jews are evil and are some kind of shadow cult. Whenever someone on this board brings it up I just take it as bait and disregard what they say, but there is probably one person at least who is that confused.

>>14297295
The idea is just that they have higher innate tribalism while also being smart, it's not that revolutionary.

Dude they have been worshipping themselves for 5000 years. They have been expelled from over 99% of every country they're tried preying on. The problem is them not humanity. Some Mayans had to kick them out as recently as 2013, in Guatemala I think. There are lots of successful non indigenous groups in the West but only one of them is regularly distrusted and hated. Only one of them has a pathological inability to tell the truth or a superiority complex that prevents them from assimilating. Why would you trust the media, which is literally own by the Jews, over consistency of opinion of the great men who have built and sacrificed themselves for the civilization you enjoy today?

Do successful Asians actively try to subvert and upend every institution in the West? No they don't at all. And now you know why people don't hate Asians even though they are more successful, on average, then the average Westerner.

i'd like to change your mind on that last part, as for me, to best be analytical, you have to analyze yourself. and in truth we don't know (i) anything, and are ignorant. doing this creates a fear and panic in yourself that you will have to learn to deal with if you want to improve your knowledge, otherwise you remain forever arrogant. so yes you are able to be an intellectual but if you can't conquer your ignorance, so you call it; you will end up like the majority of the left

-and yes this is why the left is predominantly emotional as they distract their true projections and want to feel good and can't live with their true fears about themselves

>>14296780
The incentives of counter-signaling drive people to differentiate themselves from each other. On, say, /g/, this takes the form of jerking off over increasingly contrarian and elitist programming languages and operating systems and text editors, because /g/ discusses programming languages and operating systems and text editors. On a board that discusses ideologies, people will pick up increasingly contrarian and elitist ideologies.
Because contrarianism is relative, there is an equilibrium where each distinct arguably worthwhile ideology has some representation. If it didn't have any then converting to it would make you look more sophisticated. If it had too much then people would leave it for something more hip.
/lit/ naturally covers a larger part of ideology-space than other boards, the same way /g/ naturally covers a larger part of programming-space than other boards. And much of ideology-space is leftist.

>Because most here are pseuds and most leftists are pseuds.

While I won't necessarily dispute this assessment in general, Leftism attracts more creative perspectives (things change) because conservatism conforms to the status quo (things stay the same). This in turn attracts the pseuds who want to posture as the "latest and greatest" and that old ways of being "should just move on".

I have, I'm not a fan of democracy either. Both Plato and Machiavelli had the luxury of living in times where scalability was of no concern. Both had no way of knowing the importance of distribution of information - Machiavelli didn't have enough time to fully comprehend the revolutionary change the Gutenberg press was going to initiate. There are some assumptions in regards to political maturity of the people which I find highly doubtful.

I agree with you on this. I drunkposted my reply last night, so I apologize for over-salting my perspective. In addition to refusing to analyze oneself, I’ve also noticed that leftists tend to recoil strongly to social condemnation. This presents epistemological issues for them. Where science contradicts popular opinion, they tend to side with the hivemind in fear of social ostracization, which I believe is deeply rooted in their wanting to be accepted. This is why ad hominem attacks are so prevalent amongst them. They feel they are doing the most damage by using them, because to themselves, social shaming is a profound pain.

Nope, it's the other way around. Conservatives are the ones who often reject the scientific consensus, claiming that the studies have a left-wing bias when they don't suit their agenda. Common examples:

-Race being largely socially constructed
-Sex and Gender being distinct
-Transition being the best way to deal with gender dysphoria
-Lack of female representation in engineering etc. Being due to social expectations

The list goes on and on

Elected representatives are just prostitutes for them trying to maintain a front to idiots like you.
You babble and fight amongst each other while your black nobility abduct some of your children to drink their blood. They have no skin in the game of whether or not you fight for liberal or conservative ideals, for they can subvert either to their advantage.

>abduct your children to drink their blood
is this some new way to say Jews

Most people here aren't lefty, they just read so they aren't retarded and they can see being racist, mysoginistic or any kind of phobia and/or autism y'all have as being retarded.
So yeah sorry to burst your bubble but not voting for Trump doesn't make you a lefty lmao

Some Jews are a part of the Black Nobility, but not all of the Black Nobility is Jewish. A lot of Jews and intelligence agencies like CIA do work for them though.

Black Nobility only makes me think of niggers. I understand what you're getting at but you'll need a more effective term.

>brainlet missing my point due to personal issues with terminology
How stupid can you get? Black nobility just refers to families like the Pallavicini, Rothschilds, and many more who have retained wealth for hundreds, perhaps a thousand, of years and got involved in money-printing, manipulation of various institutions, and more.

15 is the most damning critique. The fact that practically all previous cultures share those traits is only reconciled by progressivism as a revelation. Previous cultures can be forgiven for their ignorance but beyond revelation it is unacceptable.

Because pretty much everyone in the world is a leftist. There is almost no right wing to speak of.
Even the "far right" parties are still leftist, seeing how they advocate for democracy.

>he thinks science exists in a vacuum outside of politics.
The state funds scientists to produce studies that show what the state wants. If you produce undesirable results you get defunded and ostracized. I bet you're the first to yell bias when a study is funded by the pharma industry, but eat up all the state funded science propaganda lmao.

This is the real answer. Elitist contrarians either turn into Marxists, Postmodernists, or Richard Spencer.

Conservatism is a mind disease

>The more the ordinary mind takes the opposition between true and false to be fixed, the more is it accustomed to expect either agreement or contradiction with a given philosophical system, and only to see reason for the one or the other in any explanatory statement concerning such a system. It does not conceive the diversity of philosophical systems as the progressive evolution of truth; rather, it sees only contradiction in that variety

In other words well read people tend not to just reject something simply because the thinker was left leaning.

okay, despite jumping to rash commentaries, is the entire nutshell of these two sides as follows: the left wants everyone to feel good, the right wants ever single man to provide in his best interest

these define leftist traits even according to Jordan Memerson the liberal

>How so? Left wing politics centers itself on things like intergenerational handicaps and shame

Not really. If thought about in terms of game balance, leftists want all options (race, faith, sexuality, starting money, ending money, healthcare access, etc.) to be equal, with buffs and nerfs to make that happen as needed. Rightists want the meta to find its own level without interference, letting people do their own thing and seeing who rises and falls based on it.

Leftists are up their own ass because they want to claim there won't be winners and losers in rebalancing, and act like you can make things perfectly fair and 100% balanced without squishing everything together into a kinda "meh" blob of unexciting mediocrity.

Rightists are up their own ass because the current meta makes being a straight, white, heterosexual male an overpowered strat and them trying to claim that they "want the meta to find level" is in no small part a cover for "I know my curren't strat's OP in the meta, but I don't care if it's unfair, I enjoy being OP", especially because whenever the meta actually DOES naturally shift, they're first freak out that the rules need to change to halt that.
