Imagine making a thread about literature because you're genuinely interested in discussing it, instead of being baited by the most mundane and uninteresting contentions all the time, in effect using literature as nothing but a vehicle to be butthurt about identity politics on an anonymous internet board as your prime, your youth, a time that should be filled with laughter and love, dwindles away, day by day, bringing you nothing but an increase in bitterness and resentment.

Imagine they're right about what happens when you die, and your life flashes before your eyes, imagine the last experience of your life having to be sitting through your personal cinema of despair, seeing the thousands of "HURR WOMEN ARE STOOPID, LITERATURE IS FOR MENZ" threads you've made and participated in, laboriously typing out each toxic, uninteresting and resent-filled comment, your outrage not stemming from any genuine love of literature, but from the anger caused by the suppressed realization that women have chosen that your genetic lineage dies with you, a choice on their part that you are too narcissistic to realize is coming from a place of mercy towards your potential offspring.

Imagine unironically sharing any /pol/ sentiment, imagine believing that cultures should stay homogenous while simultaneously shitting up every other board with /pol/ culture, imagine how easily the resentful young /pol/fag whose life is passing him by will ignore this post by replying "found the roastie" and continue his ill-fated consumption of poison, imagine making a thread that ostensibly comes from a place of loving the classics but in actuality is killing a board that used to love discussing them because it is nothing but another terrible, predictable thread about american identityf politics.

Imagine being a giant fucking faggot OP.

Yeah this. You can't be annoyed with anything you see on Twitter because its where people go to deliberately be obnoxious and opinionated. Bit like 4chan.

Yeah. Honestly, Twitter's message length limit turns it into a place where you can't not shitpost. It's possibly the worst social media site out there

I feel like the third paragraph is by far the worst written. Should probably scrap it all together.

Imagine being Arnold in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Jamie Curtis, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 16 year old in his dressing room. Like seriously imagine having to be Arnold and not only sit in that chair while Jamie Lee Curtis flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her stretchmarks and leathery skin, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while she perfected that dance. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone on set tells her she's STILL GOT IT and DAMN, JAMIE LEE CURTIS LOOKS LIKE *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of blondes and supermodels and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Austria. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get paid to sit there and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for with personal trainers in the previous months. And then the director calls for another take, and you know you could kill every single person in this room before the studio security could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Arnold. You're not going to lose your future political career over this. Just bear it. Hide your face and bear it.

This is the case with just about every humanities academic I have ever met. I'm still a silly autodidact and I am definitely not 'up with' fields because I lack secondary and tertiary source access/exposure, but I've met 'Kantian' ethicists who haven't read any Kant, analytic logicians who wouldn't know if an Aristotle is animal, vegetable of mineral, Hegelians who have pretty much only read the Preface to the phenomenology, and historians who admit they don't read. English/Classics/Crit Theory is an even bigger shitshow.

You were abused and thus already fucked up and ripe for brainwashing, which was where the jewish propaganda came in and put further ideas in your head by excusing your weak sense of masculinity and normalizing your rebellion against it to the point where you have no qualms about making posts on the internet expressing your desire to become a female so you don't have to face the realities of being a man.
