The shitty poet and Tao Lin protege Jordan Castro is pimping out his poetry on, of all places, r9k.

Thought you guys might wanna see this and potentially eviscerate the faggot.

>No. Not /lit/. They are blind and they don't understand. They don't realize the truth: that there is no good or bad in art. Art goes above the good/bad dichotomy.

Not even gonna bother.

Why would we do that?

Also, inviting people to raid another board is against the rules.

>>3986572
Hardly an incitement to raid r9k. Just making you aware of a lit related subject on a non-lit board. And that potentially you might wish to make your feelings about his work known to him.

>> No.3986578

Why? It's not like I have anything against him. And I like Lin a lot.

Oh god. I have used this exact line to troll /lit/ before. Does... does this mean I have influenced modern literature?

Tao Lin has been going on about how there's no good or bad in art for about 5 years.

He keeps repeating it throughout the thread. It's really obvious he took it from Tao Lin. Why are alt lit kids so consistently dumb and ugly??

I've seen it posted around as a joke. You know, like in that greentext story where Ulysses transcends the good/bad dichotomy.

No. I have posted on lit but not with a trip. I know Tao does post on there sometimes. Most people do lurk it to be honest.

Why do alt-lit writers use "quotation marks" in almost every sentence?

>>3986744

i think they use it to undermine any words which might make them seem "uncool" by any implied feeling. the tone of a lot of the writers are very similar. alt-lit seems to me like a group of "writers" painfully aware of the pitfalls of writing.
