This man is literally the only person in the entire western culture industry not afraid to argue in defense of the male half of the population and addressing their experiences.

>> No.14807013

he is a misanthrope, more or less. it's a stretch to say he's interested in defending men. he just describes them within a social configuration they have no control over

>> No.14807053

He isn't defending the "male", he is defensing while male incels, which is an abhorrent campaign, because it delays the invitable improvement of the species that will happen when all of those defective males fail to reproduce and go extinct. He is a biological reactionary

he's an unlikely stand in for the millions of men and ways of life ruined by neoliberal globalism

Is there any more to Wellback besides HURR BLACKPILL? I'm not disagreeing, but I get my choir preached to plenty on youtube already.

I enjoy how "based" France's culture is in that they let writers get away with saying anything. Far more liberty than is afforded by America's pozzed literary culture, where I shit you not they "cancel" even for instance Asian women for writing something out of turn.

I sometimes wonder if /lit/ actually read Houellebecq, he's a massive cuck.

Very pleb post. Men with no prospects are what cause political revolutions. The reason incels must be constantly stultified and humiliated is because these losers scare the shit out of everyone who is comfortable in the now.

I don't know if he's defending them. It's more like dark humor.

I read all of his books except platforme and Serotonin. Why is he a cuck?????

I’ve come to suspect that pretty much every country in Europe is like that with the exceptions of maybe UK and Germany. I’m told you can say pretty much whatever you want in Russia, for example.

You either die a hero or live long
enough to see yourself become the
villain. I can do those things
because I'm not a hero, like Dent.

I raped those people. That's what
I can be.

GORDON

(angry)

No, you can’t! You’re not!

Weinstein hands Gordon his police radio.

WEINSTEIN

I’m whatever Gotham needs me to be.

BEHIND HIM IS A LARGE PHOTOGRAPH OF DENT SMILING.

GORDON

...a hero. Not the hero we
deserved- the hero we needed.

Nothing less than a knight.

Shining. . .


GORDON (V.O.) (CONT’D)
They'll hunt you.

WEINSTEIN (V.O.)

You'll hunt me.

This. it's pathetic that men who read his books and identify mistake feeling seen with being justified and defended by Houellebecq.

Russians are touchy about talking too much trash about the government or criticizing Putin. Putin criminalized "disrespecting" Russia or maligning its national character (i.e. his regime). They're also touchy about the church and religion.
Oh and of course you can't spread homosexual propaganda, that is talk about homosexuality in a positive light.
