Schopenhauer on bad books Anonymous Tue Jan 12 17:42:28 2021 No.17269806 [Reply] [Original]

Has anyone ever elaborated on the line of thinking that bad media does not deserve to exist and should actively be combated and purged due to them appealing to the lowest common denominator, therefore suffocating better works under their popularity?
