Why do art hoes and scrawny white petit-bourgeois 20 year old boys love Murakami?

For boys, all his protagonist are disaffected young men with no drive or passion and live a completely rote and blank existence until the fantastic imposes itself on their lives. For girls, Murakami's women are all have a mysterious, otherworldly quality. They are passionate and quirky in a way that seems to transcend normal everyday existence. Murakami writes about women as if he still believes that they are special.

murakami has a stunted mind and spent his life recording and refining his horny teenage power fantasies, he fills a niche

Unironically this. With little shame I can say this is why I like his books.

Welcome to /lit/, where somewhat normal discussions on literature are only possible if you hide your preferences like a fucking stooge.

Agree with most of the murakami hate and yet I've still read all his books. They're just kino

Probably because he's a great author with popular works of fiction. I don't fit into either of the categories you listed by a long shot, I'm white but make 120k at 25 so definitely not petit-bourgeois.
Your logic is silly and immature, obviously if someone produces popular work there are going to be a mix of good and bad fans. Whoever your favorite author or musician is, unless it's someone so obscure they have less than 1000 fans because you're an edgelord, I guarantee there are thousands of people who love them that you would consider shitty people.
Don't judge something based on others opinions of it, give it a try yourself and then form a judgement otherwise you're just another onions-filled pussboi.
