/lit/ - Literature

>consuming book reviews
Sounds like you were retarded to begin with

>>14547703

>muh elite anime board

I find quite conforting to have such a famous person talking about lit, specially looking at other popular youtubers like jake paul, etc
Out of all his millions of viewers at least some of them will adquire genuine interest for literature thanks to him.

>>14547703
>I'm special because I read books

>>14547725
Aye, if a single zoomer decides to pick up reading it will be worth it

>indirectly introduces masses of teenage reactionaries to René Guénon
holy based

>>14547703
>your board

This board really sucks now

>>14547703
He literally browses /lit/. And used to/still does browse /pol/ and /v/.

Not even a joke.

Those last boards are shit.
Is that the reason he said nigger in one of his streams ?

>>14547746

>>14547755
No

>>14547755
Yeah, he leaves /pol/ dogwhistles in videos as well

>>14547732
>>14547725
I think an individual's pursuit of knowledge is extremely important, and his main audience is demographically dry sponges for ideology, just starting to get a taste of the world
However, when pewdiepies former edgy humor turns into authentic sympathy for fascist talking points, it becomes less about young people learning and loving literature and more about staying them down the alt right redpill consumption

>>14547777
No he doesn't, he said nigger in his video because every normal man playing video games says nigger at least occasionally

>>14547799
Fascist talking points?

>>14547804
>every normal man playing video games says nigger at least occasionally
no, and he does more than that
>>14547806
One particilar controversy was paying for one of those things where i dia peoe write and read out what you gell them. He had them say "death to all jews" as an edgy joke (which sincerity could plausibly be behind). After various other slip ups like dropping the n word on a livestream he announced 50,000 donation to the anti defamation league. His fans backlashed and wanted him to reconsider, citing nwo-tier conspiracies about how hes been conpromised. he gave in to his fans and rescinded the sonation, choosing to donate the money to am unrelated charity. he announced that while wearing pic related, in which an alt right cartoonist is praising him for it

This place has always been that way.

Waaaaaaa this famous person I don't like is recommending books I do like therefore devaluing my elitism!!!!!
God you fags are annoying.

I’m not an anti-semite but the ADL is sketchy as fuck with their ideology as well. I am surprised pdp didnt know better beforehand. Maybe he was testing his fans :)

just to name a few on the catalog right now. even quality threads are rife with awful posts
>>14547981
That's an extremely hyperbolic way to interpret my argument
His edgy humor very clearly fostered some resentment towards le lEfTist sJws among his audience, and getting alt-lite feedback from this evolved audience he decided to continue to pander to them
I don't think hes necessarily even racist, but it's not controversial to claim hes a gateway to the alt right
>>14547978
This is actually a decent argument in his defense, but i suspect you weren't all that serious

>>14548043
The problem has always been phoneposting

Gas all phoneposters

>>14547799
You sound like one of those crazy vine aunts oldie

I used to be quite a fan. Everyday it was subtle things, like Sweden being cucked or "start with the greeks" he says in a bookreview after failing to read Nietzsche, in one of his most recent videos he responds to a picture of Sam Hyde as "looking familiar to some possible committer of horrible acts, a face I've seen on the news hmmmmmmm" (paraphrased). At some point we also saw he started following Sam Hyde on twitter. He also has Omnichan, an indisputable fact in in a video.

But most damming of all, are the times he seemingly replied to /pol/ posts and acted out certain requests as proof in his videos. One such example would be changing the dolls in his 2017 background so specifically to a request it could not be a coincidence. He also payed two Indians to say "Death to All Jews" in a video, and said nigger.

Indisputable NatSoc, though he has a weird disliking for Christianity and some feminine characteristics. A truly happy Swedish man!

These make up the unholy Trinity of shit/lit/. I don't think he promoted much of any. Maybe a bit of the genreshit.

>>14548043
I feel much the same but I can add that pewdiepie is in fact not just not a racist but also anti-alt-right. To know this admittedly and regrettably takes more than a look at his most popular youtube videos and the subsequent apologies which can't be trusted from that perspective.

>>14548237
He said that something was "based" in a video not so long ago.

>>14547730
no, you're special needs because you can't read books.

This threw me completely off when we saw it, it was like when he put a wojak on the very end of on of his videos last year

>>14548043
Does the board have no moderation at all? The tranny thread has been up a day and a half.

>>14547755
Let's be real brah, /lit/ is dime-a-dozen 4chan shitposting hidden behind a thin veneer of philosophy and literature.

>>14549117
nah its just in a period of high activity right now

Did he make a 2019 book video like he did for 2018?

>>14549145
You're kidding yourself bud. Wojack-tier shit has skyrocketed recently but it's been pretty low-tier as far as discussion of literature is concerned for at least the past 2-3 years.

>>14549289
yes and lit always goes through cycles of hyperactivity, just ride the wave and laugh

>>14548357

>he doesn't browse /pol/ during happenings

>>14549575
At least I put effort into my non sequiturs. I could have taken the easy route and told you to go dilate.

Non-American here, explain to me how promoting reading non-trash books among teenagers can be possibly construed as a bad thing. I don't understand the premise of the thread.

>>14549606
The ADL has identified him as a known wrongthinker. The books he might recommend ought to have been burned.

>>14549605
you get your jollies from shitposting, that says enough about you.

>>14549606
The books are good but he promotes them using /pol/ memes which could be irritating. He rarely use them though.

>>14549606
he's a problematic shitlord

>reactionaries
Why are marxists such cringelords?

>>14548357
they might start saying things i'm incapable of arguing against

>>14549631
Your first reply had less than 10 words and one of them was incel. That's all I can possibly know about you despite my efforts to pry something else out. Oh and you are supposed to have a problem with low effort posting or something but that is clearly not the case.

>>14549606
Because uh... He made an ironic Jew joke once. Lynch him!

>>14549704
Don't be such a bitch.

>>14549730
No Jew jokes are ironic. They are all credible threats. Everyone knows that holocaust 2.0 is right around the corner for no particular reason at all. Personally I cannot fathom a reason why that is a popular sentiment.

>>14549738

>>14547799
You’re actually right about all of that. But I think as long as he’s not reading the Bell Curve or Fanged Noumena he’s alright.

>>14547746
Don’t know why other anons are questioning this. It’s obvious he does based on every book he reviews. Like not even /r/books or any other literature forum reads half the things that get discussed here.

>>14547757
He mentioned Bugs... one time.

Significant blow struck for the White race in the culture war.

>>14549625
This is true. If what young people are reading isn't directly beneficial to or at the very least neutral about Jews it's hateful and must be stopped at all costs.

>>14547978
The ADL is fucking evil, and I say that as a Jew. One of these cocksuckers' crowning achievements was rehabilitating Leo Frank when he (a secular unfaithful Jew) fucking strangled a Jewish girl, and then raped her corpse and tried to burn her body in a furnace.

This guy was guilty as a dead mick in a wine cellar. He was convicted by a jury OF JEWS who were pissed that the sick fuck had murdered one of them and wanted him to die. When the governor pardoned him a crowd of gentiles, bless their goy hearts, dragged him out of his cell and lynched him. But because he was a Jew, oh no, he couldn't be guilty, and the ADL worked overtime for years after its founding to convince people of the bullshit lie that he wasn't obviously guilty.

Shit makes me so mad. Fuck the ADL. No wonder Bobby Fischer went nuts.

>>14551186
I mean yeah, but it is pretty fun non-the-less, and the threads where they overlap with /x/ are pretty fucking fun
