He is the new man.

The new sort of man. You all know the kind. He's been completely castrated. He's been divorced from anything primal. Completely shorn of any crimethink.

He's like a little, supple, baby-oiled infant. A modern Cupid. A little faggy nothing of a thing who believes in nothing and flaps in the goddamn breeze, whichever way it happens to be flapping.

Tell me, would you ever respect a man who makes a fortune telling 13-year-old girls what they want to hear? Would you ever respect a man who writes fiction for girls whose breasts are still budding?

Look at him and weep. You see a piece of yourself in him, don't you? That piece that you're ashamed of. That cringing little coward in the corner of your soul.

For like him you've never cut down a pine. Never stood on a cliff's edge, bare-chested, roaring into the great wilds. Never killed with your hands.

The fire is gone from his eyes. The fire that the ancients had. The great men of eminence.

And now we have "logic" and "reason" and they're a small consolation to a beastly heart, which still beats, faint as it may be, still beats.

Can you hear it in your chest?

Nah. This is basically completely wrong. I read a bit of The Fault in Our Stars recently to see what the Josh Green meme was about. The way he went about writing from a teenage girl's perspective kinda made it seem like he wants to be a teenage girl.

Really I think he's a repressed Christfag who subconsciously wants to be a tranny.

He is a nerd in every way. Emotionally stunted, loves fantasy fiction, watches Hollywood movies at midnight. It's the same as listening to rock music and reading Philip K Dick, just different packaging. Sorry to break it to you.

Anon, the quote from the OP isn't even from him.
Green doesn't even read(other than maybe fantasy fiction you mentioned).
And 'romanticizing' him is a post-ironic hot meta meme favourited by the neo-/lit/ meme experts.

I know the DFW John Greene meme, and I know they're romanticizing him ironically. Maybe my post came across as if I took the bait; instead, i'm encouraging more /lit/ people to read him because with how many redditors we've had join the board in the last couple of months, I think they might actually find solace in his work.

>> No.6829431

>>6829336
Oh my.
Well I guess yeah, he's mediocre and insipid as a person/writer, but paradoxically this is what makes him vulnerable to becoming a competent meme; he's basically the opposite of usual high-brow genius author that gets memed ad infinitum, exactly what avant-garde memefags crave.

There is no hope.
