Is it just me or has the post quality seriously dropped on /lit/ over the past month or so? It seems like we're getting a lot more new age spiritual hippies and tripfaggot manchildren. Seriously, there's even a shitload of Catholics here as well that think Aquinas was the end all be all for philosophical discussion.

Well I've occasionally gone on the board over the past 3 years, but I only lurked until about 9 months to a year ago.

I remember seeing Quentin. Not so much brownbear. I spoke to Quentin a few times, he's not a very well educated fellow.

No, what i'm seeing more often is the /pol/itizatino of /lit/. more threads about crazy rightwinger philosophy, more inquiries into crazy rightwing literature, more shitheaded racist and bigoted posts than there ever were in the past year. /pol/ is radicalizing ALL of 4chan.

They posted. There used to be a conservative or reactionary or whatever the fuck thread up at all times just a few months ago. When it wasn't up it was because the butthurt mod deleted it and in minutes there would be another one complete with mod mocking.

They have a board for their own, hell, two if you count /b/, and they're still not contained. If two boards aren't enough a thread surely isn't.

It would be nice if 4chan got together and got mods to ban any /pol/ out of /pol/

IP ban, if they reset, they reset, but shut that entire board down, and ban anyone who raids other shit with their retarded filth.

the board to systematically cause 4chan to implode.

But that's how /lit/ has always been. I last was here years ago, and earlier this week I get on for the first time since, and there are still fucking Catcher in the Rye threads, Ayn Rand, driveling philosophy discussions by people who don't even understand philosophy, etc.

We are the children of the hippie generation.
The generation that destroyed the world with multiculturalism and globalism.
We long for the nostalgia of earlier days when the world was not so degenerate.
The fact that the pol ideology resonates with so many proves it.
The leftists became the establishment and now their children are fighting back

Any time you see a reply resembling this off topic nonsense, it's a /pol/tard.

And those are not /lit/izens going to /pol/

That's /pol/ raiding /lit/, finding that /lit/ actually teaches them something about right winged literature, and that same /pol/itical retard going back to /pol/ and bragging to them about some horse shit like a neckbeard band geek goes to his mom when he makes an A on a test.

4chan is always terrible because it only takes one faggot to ruin a discussion, whereas it takes all people acting well to have a nice discussion.

The best thing you can do is to stop replying to inflammatory posters. Nothing beats trolling harder than ignoring the troll.

>discussions by people who don't even understand philosophy
now if there's a problem with /lit/ that makes "muh summer /pol/ raid" pale it's this. "/lit/ doesn't read" sounds like a board meme, every board has its one but this is actually true. there's an astounding number of people on /lit/ who don't read because they CAN'T read and you can see it by the way they read and respond to posts in here.
They can't read and they use terms they don't understand (all of which require 30 second google searches to comprehend).
Trying to have a discussion about anything here is like pissing in the wind, that's why a lot of people just shitpost and submit forced memes.

1. you're the children of babyboomers. not everyone was a part of the counter culture movements of the 60's, and chances are your parents (or grandparents) were not.
2. globalism is a right-wing innovation. so thanks a lot.
3. first of all "longing for nostalgia" makes no sense. secondly, your nostalgia is mostly invented and revisionist.
4. "degenerate" is a buzzword that means nothing.
5. this is not an argument. the fact that hateful, reactionary politics that capitalizes on race resentment and perceived victimization resonates with a demographic of mostly socially inept white americans means nothing.
6. the fact that you think the status quo is "leftist" shows how very fragile and warped your worldview is.

>> No.5826588

people act like the /pol/ variety of "muh bix nood" and "muh jews" shitposting is anything new, but it's not. ironic racism has been a 4chan cornerstone extending as far back as shit like shoop da whoop (that's more YTMND i guess but whatever)

whats actually new is a small, easily impressionable sector of the board taking these memes seriously and adopting them into their worldview. there are teenagers on the imageboard right now who identify as christian fascists, most likely because of the nazi meme that has hung around /pol/ or /new/ for years. whats especially hilarious about these idiots is that nazism probably wouldn't even be that prevalent on here if not for dumb shit like the habbo hotel raids
