What do we do about /pol/'s influence on our little board?
I've been seeing, more and more, that there's a certain type of shitposter who lacks any semblance of reading comprehension, who just spews blind idealism over any work that they filter with their black-and-white worldview. These folks seem to believe that their version of the "truth" is better than all the other subjective views out there, that these contrarian opinions seem to make them feel better over being completely unlikable in real life.
The use of the word "cuck" has increased.
The blatant bashing of "lefties" in threads that have nothing to do with politics.
Pedestrian interpretations of novels that have myriad secondary sources available on the internet.

I'm beginning to believe we're being overrun by teenagers/young men with inferiority complexes who lash out at the world for being rejected by women over and over again... This can only come from /pol/

How do we get these idealist fucks off our board?

First step is to read the #alt-woke manifesto

This board needs to become the central nervous hive of left-accelerationism to defeat the alt-right and their pepe memes. We can't lose the culture war on the internet if we are to win in the real world. Redouble your shilling efforts and straw man the right wing as much as possible.

Consider them the bugs that eat soil when there's no grass growing.

You get rid of them by planting grass, by which I mean good posts.

/pol9k/ has gained a foothold only because of the lack of meaningful literary discussion generated by people like you.

>implying civilization didn't die with the Romans
We're living in a dark age of civilization that has lasted over two millennia. Look at what the Romans created with their scant technology and information, we can't even do as well with all the power and technology we have, with hoards of information at our fingertips. The light of the world died with Rome, and we are crawling in the dirt exclaiming that we are gods.

Open your eyes, there is only darkness.

4chan has one nazi board.
The rest is inherently apolitical because there are no politics involved. Most of the literature on /lit/ is left-wing or "degenerate" (Sartre, Foucault, Zizek). /lit/ is famously one of the more left-leaning boards, but there has been an influx of crossposters and many threads about a boogeyman thread on r/anarchism. Just fuck off with purely ideological discussions on a literature board ffs. I'm fairly apolitical but it's just retarded and ridiculous and the whole alt-right schtick is based on actively annoying and offending other people, don't you have anything better to do?

There was a thread on /pol/ a while ago about the most pretentious board on here. The general consensus was that /lit/ was comprised of "lefty pseudocucks who read Adorno without understanding him" as one /pol/ster put it. /lit/ and /his/ seemed to be the biggest target and a bunch of NEETZIS decided to raid and attempt to convert. This was about 2 weeks ago before that stupid HWNDU shit took it over.

/lit/ is going into a multicultural mode, it's a huge transformation for /lit/ to make but without it, /lit/ will not survive

>> No.9073023

I think we should be more accepting of them. If we don't allow them to move freely into our board they're just going to use this as propaganda to recruit even more people into fighting their little "culture war." Love trumps hate, we need to defeat them with acceptance. If we defeat our enemies, they win.
