It's a shame that he did not live to see the rise of nationalism in the mid 2010s. I also wish he had written more.

This, being a genius of our age, he pretty much predicted that rise and all of the meme culture that would come too, in exactly the way that it did. He was going to move to America to host a regular podcast later the same year that he died, undoubtedly he would have grown to exemplary fame and status. And we would have had so much more of a record for what his genius was good for, talking, speaking, politics, polymathically a public figure. He naturally would have written more of his thoughts too, and more fiction, but I think there's a reason he wrote as much as he did during his life.

Firstly, you don't understand subtlety in art, secondly you misplace the role of art in ones life. I guess you think the genius at music when he tries his hand at painting must also be a Michelangelo of it.

>> No.17272814

Because there is no question possibly left of what he is in respect to 'inceldom,' once one sees his emotional exuding (or emanating) and conduct, and at once understands.

Yes, he does. I just look at this for 5 seconds. His hand gestures look like spasms and he yells like a sperg, despite that he appears to be in a small room, which makes yelling your points completely unnecessary. The only reason for this is to come across as ‘powerful’ and ‘alpha’, and the only people who want to come across as such aren’t and never will be, just like you
