which /lit/ were you looking at because I should like to go there

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand /lit/. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also /lit/’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep aboutLIFE. As a consequence people who dislike /lit/ trulyAREidiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in /lit/’s existential catchphrase “Start with the greeks,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Moot's genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

You can start becoming smarter by deleting your meticulously organized folder of meme pictures.

I was blown away the first time I got here but really it's just because people are better at organizing their thoughts than people on most other boards, its still low IQ as fuck.

being able to communicate (i.e. organize your thoughts effectively) is literally part and parcel of IQ

>>10132760
Being able to communicate irrational or baseless thoughts well doesn't make them any better.

I wish this were true. The /pol/ invasion was a nightmare but in retrospect we weren't prepared for the flood of Petersonfags.

It'll be like this until low IQ people flood in here and lower the level of discourse to that of all the other boards.

It's already happening.
