Was there a meaning underneath this essay that I didn't understand? It felt esoteric

It is incredible Land was able to predict so much about a digitized world 20 years ago in this essay

>> No.14558648

dunno I didn't read it
you should have made a big ass greentext that is taken out of context to prove whatever shallow idea you have in mind

such a hack. It's just a rephrasing of the will to power.

I saw him quote tweeting some really tepid bernie-tier socialist irony posts and he couldn't even understand they were joking. I think he's really turned into a grouchy grampa

twitter has destroyed the mystique of writers and artists. Imagine if Nietzche had a twitter

>> No.14558704

>>14558698
so has youtube.

just listen to a guy like Nick Land ramble on nonsensically and it puts a whole new meaning to the word charlatan.

Nietzsche-twitter would be curated thoughts. Aphorism good enough for the masses but not for a published book. And he would respond to no one.

I listened to Nick Land on YT before I bought his book

I figure when someone sits down to write, they have their thoughts fully collected and they're on a roll. Put them in front of a microphone and sometimes people don't have a lot to say.

this is the literary form of a mcdouble

He would likely be on twitter is vaguely flirt with the alt-right, or just not be a writer at all if he were alive today

Unfortunately not true. Social Media has a leveling effect that brings everyone down to a very low optical level. I think it might be the interface or maybe the fact there's no barrier to entry

Land how does it feel to have kids with a Jew? I bet you have moments of feeling cornered. It’s all right, it’s all part of Gnon’s plan, but your testimony is important for history’s sake. Whether you’re necessarily compromised or not is going to boil down to whether you were redpilled before or after you fell in love.
